USA Attacks Syria

It is a war crime to attack a nation which is no threat to you.  It is lunacy to do so to help terrorists.  So I guess that makes our military leaders criminally insane.  At least the ones who do not resign.

Part of the lunacy is we are backing Kurdish rebels, who are fighting USA trained and funded ISIS, which means we will necessarily need to go to war next with either the newly reconstituting Kurdistan or Turkey.  Which ally will we betray next?

Kurdistan has better basis and feels more strongly about independence than Ireland ever did.  And now comes their chance.    Their country consists of about 1/3rd of present day Turkey, and parts of Syria, Iraq and Iran.  Clearly their tactics are to arm and train, compliments of the USA, and fight strategically and defensively until such time as they can strike and make solid gains on the field.  There is not longer any country called Iraq, USA created a failed state there, os the Kurds have a solid base.   They may get some Syria out of this fight.  There are unlikely to fight Iran, but in any event, with those Kurds it is always pleasure before business, so expect them to fight Turkey first.  When that war starts, which ally will we betray then?

This may be sooner than we think, for here Turkish security forces are rebuffing Kurds retreating into Kurdistan homelands from USA funded and trained ISIS attacking Kurds.

When you can lend credit there is no rational limit to what craziness you can get up to, and it seems this opportunity attracts crazies.

Our generals are notorious liars, (see Colin Powell re: My Lai, soldiers left behind, Iraq) and certainly mere politicians (flag officers are nominated by the president and voted on by the senate.)  War makes their post-military careers unbelievable lucrative.  This was never meant to be in USA, indeed, we were once structurally unable to have a standing army, the bane of civilians.

If we get into WWIII, the history books will show USA started it.  We all want to know who is the next Hitler?  Obama?  Bush?  Clinton?  (Our next two options for president.)

It's not a question of who is the next Hitler.  The question is are the American people any different than the German people?  Clearly not.

Shouldn't we just bring our troops home and buy what we want from these countries, and sell them what they want?
