Lindsey Graham: Trump’s Syria Policy Could Bring ‘Historic Solutions’

The Jerusalem Post reports: Republican U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who has been one of the most vocal critics of President Donald Trump’s decision to move U.S. troops out of northeastern Syria, said on Sunday he now believed “historic solutions” were possible.

In an interview with Fox News, Graham said a conversation he had with Trump over the weekend had fueled his optimism that a solution could be reached where the security of Turkey and the Kurds was guaranteed and fighters from Islamic State contained.

“I am increasingly optimistic that we can have some historic solutions in Syria that have eluded us for years if we play our cards right,” Graham said on “Sunday Morning Futures.”

Well considering most of his supporters have no idea where Syria is he could get away with it. If it were in the Holy Land they'd all be on board.

Why would these people solve their problems when the U.S. will commit troops and money to maintain the status quo?

Why would people get off of welfare when their meals and comfort are provided for them?

The U.S. needs to bring the troops home from the endless wars!

This is brilliant strategy. Our NATO ally, Turkey is buying Russian weapon systems, possesses our Atomic bombs , attacks our ally the Kurd's, and now Russian and Turkey announce joint military patrols.

What could be better?

I forgot , the ethnic cleansing and displacement of nearly 200,000 people who have lived in a region forever.

PERFECT!!
