Why do you support more war and more American involvement and death in the Middle East?

I do not. Let the Muslims kill each other, they will whether we are there or not, this way we aren't in the crossfire.

I don’t, frick those people over there in the Middle East.

Because one of the major symptoms of TDS is blind rage.

I don't. I am not a bleeding heart liberal that thinks we can fix the world with hugs and flowers and infantry.

Because it’s something that the Uni-party tells me I must support.
It’s bipartisan, so it must be good!

Is going to show up and throw some generalized diatribe about how Trump is a fool for leaving all while not even answering your question.

I don’t
I say let them fight it out and whoever is still alive when they are done can decide if they want to join the 21st century or not

I can’t explain it. If I could, with all due respect, you wouldn’t understand. Global strategy and defense of American hegemony is just too complex of a topic. i haven’t spent a lifetime studying it. My limited understanding of it is relegated to an appeal to authority.
Trump has Gary Kasparov telling him to use knight to take king’s pawn. Trump says, “N’ah. I’ll castle king-side. My wisdom is unquestionable.” I’m going to guess that Trump made the wrong move. Time will tell.

Then you should criticize Trump for proposing economic sanctions, at the very least.
But y'all are eating it up.

Why are we sending troops to to the ME to protect a ME Islamist aristocracy from a ME Islamist theocracy while at the same time moving a handful of troops out of the way, but not out of ME, at the behest of an Islamist autocrat in order to permit said autocrat to attack our Islamic Kurdish allies that helped us kill Islamic radicals trying to create a caliphate?
This renders many, especially stdtiger:
But this is the state of the situation folks.

Five Ways Trump’s Unnerving Decision on Syria Has Seriously Harmed Israel (Haretz Opinion piece)
First, it abandons and weakens the United States’ Syrian Kurdish partners who have been the main ground troops in the fight against ISIS. These well-trained and committed fighters have sustained some 11,000 casualties in the four-year counter-ISIS campaign, contributing greatly to many of its successes.
Second, it hands a victory to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who, while he leads a NATO ally, has increasingly acted in ways counter to U.S. interests, cozied up to Russia, supported Hamas and other Muslim Brotherhood movements, and generally acted as the regional nemesis to Israel.
Third, it strengthens the Assad regime’s attempts to reconsolidate control over Syrian territory it has lost in the civil war. This is also a victory for Russia, Assad’s patron, and ultimately for Iran, which seeks to operate and insert military forces to harm Israel in Syrian territory under Damascus’ control.
Fourth, it can facilitate the revival of ISIS. While ISIS no longer controls territory, active cells continue to operate, with the motivation and capability to attack regional and Western targets. Camps containing ISIS elements, now controlled by Kurdish fighters, could soon be overrun, abandoned, or left to unreliable Turkish control.
And finally, the decision sends a message throughout the Middle East that the United States will not stand with - indeed, will abandon - its partners and allies at key moments. While Iran is attacking tankers and Saudi oil facilities in the Gulf with no U.S. response, and threatening Israel on many fronts, this impression of U.S. disengagement has all of America’s partners feeling uneasy.
