| It is, but he is weakening the credibility of the United States in the process. Never make a threat you aren't willing to back, otherwise everyone knows you make idle threats. |

| The chicken is always the good part of the TACO. That doesn't make the whole thing great. |

| It's just another military adventure ending in a disaster - probably the most humiliating in a long long time. But to your point, it's better for the US to admit defeat now, than in 2 or 3 weeks, let alone in 2 or 3 years. If a parallel can be made, Russia would have been best advised to have done the same 3 years ago. |

| Yes. But it’s still bad that the US threatened a genocide this morning. |

| ▲ | k33n 28 minutes ago | parent [-] | | The Roman civilization died. Stating that a civilization will die is not a genocidal threat. Hit flag again :) |
