  1. Oh so they were kind enough to stop killing long enough to get their way? Wow. What a great day for civilization.

  2. Trump is pleased with the deal because it gives him better optics. He doesn’t care about the actual situation on the ground.

  3. WTF what a lying immoral putin lap dog. What cease fire? Did anyone truly believe the pence trump or anyone else would stop the war so easily ? God save us! God save our Kurdish allies 🙏

    1. Especially when they didn’t let the Kurds know how they decided their future. They got their information on the deal from watching and listening to the news. Zero respect for a people who sacrificed so much fighting ISIS. Maybe that is why they interfere with Trumps story on how he and he alone defeated ISIS.

    2. Whats all this Putin talk? Are your brainless ?
      It is Israel who rule over Trump and Putin and If you don’t know that then you know nothing.

    1. @jamescreys <<--- is a paid russian troll. Just fyi. This is what they look and sound like. #Trolling4Trumputin #MakinDemRubles

    2. @General Guile – Russian trolls have been at it since at least 2012. There are tell-tale signs, remarks, individual trolls that I recognize. I often call them out so others can recognize them too.

  4. I’d like to apologize to the brave Kurdish people who have been betrayed & stabbed in the back by tRump & America. “I’m so sorry & wish you well in your struggle for a homeland to call your own.”

    1. That is there internal matter y america want to boss of every country do ur own work and try gud for ur country i think trump is doing for peace to not intarfare with there internal matters

    1. @Jim Myers You’re the ignorant one if you don’t understand that the Kurds are finally negotiating with Syria. They should have done it years ago but they were foolishly counting on the US invaders for help.

    2. @Reo East No, go educate yourself you absolut shitgibbon. Kurds = PKK isn’t a thing, but good to see you ate the propaganda up that easily you numbskull

    3. @Ral Deform Your moral and intelligence is showing.
      I never think/said “all Kurds are Marxist PKK terrorists.”
      It does make 0 sense to claim such a thing.

      The problem: in Syria there are PKK/YPG terrorists. And the puppet masters of the Western media are trying the push the idea of “all Kurds = PKK/YPG”. To manipulate the public opinion.

      Again: I never said “Kurds = PKK/YPG”.
      I have great Kurdish friends, there are Kurds in Turkish governmental positions…

      Why would anybody think I might claim “Kurds = PKK”…. That’s insane.

    4. @Reo East Moral is all Kurds are not terrorist. Some exceptional one’s are terrorist. American won’t understand the difference.

    1. @Reo East No, I just choose to look at reality and not brown nose myself by only looking a propaganda. But, you do you, I guess.

  5. tRumpanzee: “…Erdogan, like Papa Putin, is a strong man, a great man. He’s a friend of mine & I will bend over and take his beautiful manhood anytime, anywhere.”

    1. No more than 1000 troops sitting idly since isis (who was a result of American invasion) has been defeated…hate all you want and drink the msm anti trump koolaide….he’s doing the right thing.

    1. @Frank Parra No we’r not., because we know America well … they (establishment) ask a favor and we accept that. Why? As already told., we know America… now establishment owe us a big one.
      Otherhand time running Tic – Tac … deal ends at Tuesday night … not much time left. Tic – Tac

  6. trump : “this ceasefire is the most perfect in the history of the world, it lasted more than one hour” 🙂
