- Start date
President Trump to meet today with senior advisers to begin planning for step-by-step withdrawal from Afghanistan
The meeting follows months of diplomatic outreach by Trump��s special envoy, former U.S. ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad, and military plans to begin a phased withdrawal of U.S. forces and end the longest U.S. war.
The Trump administration would withdraw thousands of troops from Afghanistan in exchange for concessions from the Taliban, including a renunciation of al-Qaeda, as part of an initial deal to end the nearly 18-year-old war.

GOSH!
They wouldn't tell fibs, would they?
You never see the head line ISIS in crisis.
Life goes on.
its just another day with 60 dead at a wedding party.
We have helped enough.
What goes round, comes round, as the old sayin' goes.
Let it be.
The cost of war is irrelevant. They never start a war to win. They start it to prolong it as long as possible to fill the coffers of the military/industrial complex. They never even figure in the human or financial costs. Capitalism is about making money at any cost. Collateral damage is just the price we pay for them to make a profit.

Besides,the whole world has betrayed the Kurds over and over. The probably didn't trust the Americans, anyway.
Maybe, the Kurds refused to spy on Biden for him and he's punishing them, instead.
It is becoming crystal clear that the United States can no longer be trusted to be a steadfast ally.
Wait for Trump to tear up NORAD, next.
The Turks told him to get his ass out of there and he did.
