Exactly. What’s new here is not the anti-democratic imperialism, that’s for sure.

How is this not the top comment?

“oligarchy of former terrorists”

Perfectly stated.

This is the dream. They’ve shit all over Latin America for almost a century. Enough already.

Again I’ll say it….Trump is a symptom, not the disease.

I wish it weren’t so, but you’re hitting all sorts of nails on the heads. Long live Rojava. Down with jihadis, and so long as the so-called Syrian army is headed by a jihadist, down with them.

Might sound crazy, I know, but I’m having trouble trusting a jihadist after what’s happened to Kurds at their hands in the last decade.

I may come to trust him slightly if he allows free and fair presidential elections, which I strongly doubt he ever will.
