It's amazing that the Kurds would even trust us at this point. I remember when the foreign policy establishment ridiculed Obama for the "red line" approach to Syria - but what he did actually took immense bravery.

After the debacle in Libya (which he cited as the biggest mistake of his presidency and is what fractured his relationship with Clinton) - Obama bravely decided not to repeat the same mistake in Syria - where were directly and indirectly supporting and arming ISIS yet were claiming we were supporting "freedom fighters" simply because they opposed Assad.

To hear people talk about Syrian sovereignty in 2017 (when Trump was being reckless and idiotic) - yet abandon those views now that it's Biden - is all you need to know about the posturing and corruption within the Pentagon.
