Why does russia have a stake in this, is it just to prevent Turkey from getting to cocky?
Also, is it true that turkey was gearing up to to assualt kurdland whether or not the US was there? If so, then the only rational option was to pull out
1. Syria and Iran are longtime Russian allies; their economies to some degree are codependent. Russia initially entered the war both because of that and because they saw that bulldozing Syria was the next step in clearing a path to Iran and another major war.
2. Yes, I don't think Erdogan was bluffing. He considers the PKK/YPG a serious threat to Turkish sovereignty and would not allow them to establish military bases on the Turkish border, even if they were ostensibly under the command of the US. Option 1 was get out early, option 2 was wait until Turkey actually attacked and then get out, option 3 was fight Turkey. Option 4 was call Erdogan's bluff but that wasn't really an option.
Trump took the path that was likely to cause the least embarrassment to the US but he did it poorly. It really should've been a slower withdrawal that supported the 'SDF's rapprochement with the SAA and/or their exit from Syria. He could've been seen as a diplomat and peacemaker (though probably not in the eyes of the US media) if he participated in negotiations to grant the Kurdish regions greater autonomy in exchange for their military support, for example.

They can be really fun and not in a shenanigan prone or naughty way necessarily, but like a way where they have a personality that's really inviting and never boring to be around and you can't help but smile
Here's the girl I loved in 8th grade that we both simultaneously crushed HARD on each other but I ruined it by saying the wrong thing one time, which was the exact OPPOSITE of what I wanted to say with all my heart when she was being super duper flirty and basically asked if I found her sexy, and I watched the disappoint drown her entire body when I said no simply because I didn't want to sound like a creep. We didn't really talk after that
she's married with kids to some army idiot in texas now, she didn't have to leave iowa but she chose to a year after I broke our hearts

"The first cigarette of the morning is the best," Wren said. "That's the one that wakes you up. It's the only cigarette that matters."
"Well..." Sudo paused to take a puff. "What about the second and third cigarette? Those are pretty good too. And the last one's not bad either."
"Oh the last one's the worst."
"The worst?" Sudo questioned.
"The worst," he reiterated. "The last cigarette of the day is truly a dreaded thing. It's the tired cap to yet another night on this awful fucking planet. But the first? The first cigarette has hope. You can step outside and think of things like: 'Maybe it'll get better today. Maybe today I'll quit smoking. Maybe today I'll meet the girl of my dreams'. The last cigarette has no maybes. It's cold and dark and depressing, and there's no hope of quitting with it. There's no hope of anything."
"Yeah, okay," Sudo said. His face flickered with orange as Wren struggled to light another cigarette. They had been smoking all night.
"The second is alright though. Third one too. It's just that last one I don't like." Wren stared down at the floor. A cat meowed in the distance. "Hey, can you pass me another beer?"
"Sure."
The two sat for some time, contemplating which cigarette of the night would be their last. Wren hoped to at least get another five in.
"Hey I think it's happening," Sudo said. "Look."
Wren half-sat out of his chair, glancing briefly at the sky beyond the window. "Oh yeah, it's happening alright. Pass me the lighter would you?"
"How long do you think it's going to take?"
"I don't know."
"Really though, how long?" Sudo asked. "An hour, two?" The sky was quickly turning to a vibrant yellow. Wren stood up to close the curtain.
"I think less than that. Maybe just a few more lines of dialogue. I was watching the news this morning and they said it could be a matter of seconds."
"Oh. Okay." The thought of having a beer passed briefly through Sudo's head, but he had already decided that he wouldn't. It was best to stay in Allah's good graces during these final moments.
"So is there anything you want to talk about? Anything at all?" Sudo wiped the sweat from his brow. The room was getting hotter.
"No," Wren said, taking a long pull from his diminishing cigarette. "I think this is it though."
"Is it?"
"Yeah," he said, scratching at his beard. "Well, no. One more. I'll have one more. You have that lighter again?"
"Sure man. Anything." Sudo handed over the lighter, wishing it was a BIC. Why hadn't they gotten a BIC?
Wren cupped his hands over the faithful stick and took a drag, making the room glow orange for the last time, as they drifted slowly, but surely, into the sun.

Its a very misunderstood disease, herpes. I gave it to three people in a week after I had sex with a Puerto rican whore from new york (18) over a decade ago. I picked her up at the greyhound station, she was heading to chile to be with familia. I immediately banged her and when we were in the shower she was going on about how so many guys fucked her in the bathroom of the bus and I immediately felt really grossed out. She said she wanted something to smoke on and I drove her to my weed dealer and she gave me money and she was really disappointing because it was just weed and she said she wanted coke and that she could of just sucked the guy off for that (black dude and was checking her out) and that we should go to sixth street and walk around asking for drugs and I was like yeah I'm not doing that and gave her a xanax so she would shut up.
We woke up in the morning and she wanted to have sex and I told her no. The next day my foreskin grew ten times larger, it was so infalmed and it burnt when I pissed really bad and I had all these whyte heads on my head of my dick. I was freaking out severely and went to the doctor and the doctor told me to not worry that herpes doesn't mean my lyfe is over and gave me valtrex. It was 75 dollaars and I did the whole bottle and had a few outbreaks over the next 6 months and now they are less frequent, its only if I do drugs and am really worn down that I will get just a single spot and happens only once a year since I've had it. I can actually feel it coming on.
But yeah 1 out of every 4-6 people have herpes. My daughters mom, some slammer, and chzbgz all said they got herpes from me but now they all have unprotected sex saying they dont have it anymore even though the doctors say its a lyfe long disease.
So any of you gonts have any diseases on your private parts?

I feel kind of bad. I was on a real high last night like never before, I was raging pretty hard. And I told this pollack methadone addict that she's the worst mother ever. I apologized though.

hydromorphone is a typical female. Homeless opiate user that makes hundreds of dollars a day
The only skill you need to survive as a woman in this society is the ability to open your legs... thats it. Women have figured out how to game the system and contribute nothing to society.
Why have kids or a career when you can just find a sugar daddy and be an internet whore

Folks you don't need to rely on polls alone just look at what is happening. Even his lawyer (Guliani) is in trouble. Trump has been torpedoed and is going down like the Titanic.
Except they have been telling you that every night for three years. Get it yet?

There aren't even cameras. I asked for a tow away sign and they put up a no trespassing sign. Then i called and told them they put up the wrong sign and all they did was put a "camera" sticker on it. Still not a tow away sign…
You have to do everything yourself. You keep asking for favors from the Landlord, He's gonna jack your rent up. Just pay him his rent and only call him if the roof leaks or there is plumbing or gasline problems.
fuck everything else. Get some sidewalk chalk that last a while and draw a near line out where cars park. and chalk "NO PARKING" or "RESERVED FOR UNIT etc" your unit. Cones are best. find a real street cone and drop a hand made sign "You will be towed" and sit it at the front of the parking when you take off.
