Let's talk Turkey. Trump is owned by Erdogan.

Thank you Prime Minister Erdogan for joining us yesterday to celebrate the launch of #TrumpTowers Istanbul!—Ivanka Trump 4/20/12
And the rush by Rightwing liars to justify whatever Trump does is off!!!
Conservatives #dgaf about the chaos in the Middle East or the struggle of the Kurdish people. The only thing conservatives care about is #OwntheLibs. DJ Traitor Trump has never and will never care enough about anything difficult to understand. Trump is a vile and venal creature who views the world and people as how they can aid him and whether or not they can make him pay his debts. Turkish President Erdogan clearly can make Trump pay,
"I have a little conflict of interest ’cause I have a major, major building in Istanbul" - Traitor Trump 2015
As Trump's impeachment is certain; Putin, Erdogan and others are going to call in their chits. And Trump is uncaring or too dumb to see the whole timing of the US pullout shows it. Turkey declares they are moving forward with a long planned military operation into Northern Syria and Trump gets a phone call from Turkish President Erdogan demanding payback.

So Trump being stupid but, needing the fawning adoration of his #Magat Horde declares he defeated ISIS and is now pulling back US Forces;
“Turkey will soon be moving forward with its long-planned operation into Northern Syria. The United States Armed Forces will not support or be involved in the operation, and United States forces, having defeated the ISIS territorial ‘Caliphate,’ will no longer be in the immediate area,” according to a White House statement.
Trump knows his rabid base only care about the semblance of victory. Conservatives long ago abandoned objective reality and treat Trump or a Republican administrations statements as stone-cold facts. So Trump tweeted out,
As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!). They must, with Europe and others, watch over... the captured ISIS fighters and families. The U.S. has done far more than anyone could have ever expected, including the capture of 100% of the ISIS Caliphate. It is time now for others in the region, some of great wealth, to protect their own territory. THE USA IS GREAT! Oct 7, 2019
It's shades of the conservative reaction to the Iraq War. Conservatives proclaimed Iraq a Glorious Victory dozens of times during W(orst POTUS Ever) pResidency, beginning when C+ Augustus awarded himself a Triumph aboard the USS Enterprise on May 1, 2003 and continuing until right-wingers declared V-I Day on November 8, 2008 in order to "get it on the record".

But, while the Iraq War Crimes and Middle East chaos were exactly what Dick Cheney and the Republican Party wanted in order to make off with Trillions of dollars in Wealth stolen from the American and Iraqi people, Trump's decision is actually more pathetic.

Ultimately, the chaos in the Middle East ties back directly to George W(worst President of All-Time) Bush ginning up a war in Iraq and ISIS is the unholy muslim love-child of Ronnie Raygun and W(orst) but, that doesn't matter right now because Trump's weakness is going to get a massive number of people killed, destroy any semblance of stability in the Middle East, and cede geopolitical dominance in the region.

The Truth about Benghazi. President Obama reacted swifter than Bush did on 9/11. While Republicans out CIA Operations.


New details have been released regarding the reaction to the terrorist attacks in Benghazi. Unlike, President Bush who sat in a catatonic stupor while thousands of Americans died, President Obama was engaged and understood the nature of the emergency within minutes.
The CIA rushed security operatives to an American diplomatic compound in Libya within 24 minutes of its coming under attack and played a more central role in the effort to fend off a night-long siege than has been acknowledged publicly, U.S. intelligence officials said Thursday.
The agency mobilized the evacuation effort, took control of an unarmed U.S. military drone to map possible escape routes, dispatched an emergency security team from Tripoli, the capital, and chartered aircraft that ultimately carried surviving American personnel to safety, U.S. officials said. 
 The biggest revelation is that Benghazi was a covert CIA action,
The U.S. effort in Benghazi was at its heart a CIA operation, according to officials briefed on the intelligence. Of the more than 30 American officials evacuated from Benghazi following the deadly assault, only seven worked for the State Department. Nearly all the rest worked for the CIA, under diplomatic cover, which was a principal purpose of the consulate, these officials said.
Of course, Faux News and Republican buffoons in their rush to Impeach President Obama have no compunction about outing CIA agents, undermining national security or covert operations. Anything which they can use to slander Barack Obama is fodder for their propaganda machine.

But, despite the revelations Faux News is way too invested in their Benghazi Bullshit to give up now. Faux News has staked too much on Benghazi as a vehicle to eliminate President Obama to drop their campaign of lies.

But, what they will never do is bring forth a credible witness, or a CIA "whistle blower", or actual official documents or any REAL EVIDENCE. No Faux will rely on Newt Gingrich, a man who has no connection to the military as he was a big, fat cowardly, chicken hawk who hasn't held office in over a decade to mention "rumors I've heard". And Peter Johnson Jr. to offer up his smears while he says "I have no evidence for this." While Sean Hannity engages in his nightly tirades of bigotry, bluster and bullshit.

Officials say that U.S. forces from Europe and Fort Bragg in North Carolina were dispatched in an effort to help, but they arrived too late. Officials considered sending U.S. warplanes from Italy, but it was decided that dropping bombs would lead to civilian casualties.
CIA officials in Washington strongly deny there was any order not to mount a rescue mission. And the source tells NPR there was never an order to stay put. It was all about getting ready, not delaying. Within 24 minutes, the American and Libyan team moved out toward the consulate.
 So, the Republicans will never convene a real hearing in which military officers and service men are brought forth to testify. No because their testimony under oath would move to exonerate President Obama. No official proceeding will ever occur in which CIA operatives and State Department officials give testimony because there will be NO EVIDENCE to support the Bullshit Slanders Republican Congressmen and Senators have been alleging with reckless abandon on Faux News.

Instead, Republicans will talk real tough about how mad they are and let Faux News run with OUTRIGHT LIES, smears, innuendoes, falsehoods in an effort to Impeach President Obama in the fevered minds of the Alternate Conservative Reality.
