Dr. Ron Paul 100% Correct on Syria

October 16, 2019 By Richard C. Young

Former Congressman and presidential candidate, Ron Paul, has been a clarion for peace for decades. With clarity, he explains to readers at the Ron Paul Institute the exact situation that has led to the current Syria-hysteria in Washington D.C. Paul blames the incessant mission creep of the U.S. military, goaded on by the “war industry,” who feed off the endless conflict. He writes (abridged):

When President Trump Tweeted last week that “it is time for us to get out of these ridiculous endless wars,” adding that the US would be withdrawing from Syria, Washington went into a panic. Suddenly Republicans, Democrats, the media, the think tanks, and the war industry all discovered and quickly became experts on “the Kurds,” who we were told were an “ally” being sent to their slaughter by an ignorant President Trump.

But it was all just another bipartisan ploy to keep the “forever war” gravy train rolling through the Beltway.

Interventionists will do anything to prevent US troops from ever coming home, and their favorite tactic is promoting “mission creep.” As President Trump Tweeted, we were told in 2014 by President Obama that the US military would go into Syria for just 30 days to save the Yazidi minority that they claimed were threatened. Then that mission crept into “we must fight ISIS” and so the US military continued to illegally occupy and bomb Syria for five more years.

The latest “mission creep” was that we had to stay in Syria to save our “allies” the Kurds.

Do they really want us to believe that it is “pro-American” for our troops to fight and die refereeing a long-standing dispute between the Turks and Kurds?

It was a colossally dumb idea to train and arm the Kurds in Syria in the first place.

On Sunday the Kurds and the Syrian government signed an agreement, brokered by the Russians, to put aside their differences and join together to defend against Turkey’s incursion into Syrian territory.

The best way to help the Kurds and everyone else in the region is to just come home.
