Trump's decision to pull troops away from the Turkish border in Northern Syria has drawn massive amounts of criticism from both sides of the political isle. Is Trump the most Anti-War president we've had in my lifetime? Possibly. 

Let's dissect the problem between the Kurds, and the Turkish government. They've been fighting each other for decades. It must be acknowledged that the Kurds have been our only consistent ally in the fight against terrorist groups in the Middle East. What we just did will in fact lead to their demise, more than likely. 

We also have to acknowledge the fact that Turkey is a NATO ally. We can't fight Turkey, because that would technically open up the door for their allies to defend them. Who are their allies? Well, that's Canada, UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, you get the idea. Maybe this is why George Washington warned against forming "entangling alliances?" 

Regardless of the implications, it's not America's job to protect people in the Middle East. It isn't now, and it never has been. We've been the World Police for far too long. We've wasted trillions of dollars, and lost almost 7,000 troops in the region. It's time for another country to step up. Perhaps one of the countries that are on that side of the world? England is only a couple thousand miles away, compared to the US, who are over 10,000 miles away. It's time to bring the troops home. Not just from the border in Northern Syria, but from all of the battle fronts in the Middle East.
