I guarantee that no matter how much fun you are having with an activity or product someone else will say it’s a waste. They will claim it is either a waste of time and/or monies where you could be doing or spending your time/monies at a better place.  These remarks can effect the fun so that your smile turns upside down as you think …”maybe she/he”.  Yet knowing that this will occur in all cultures around the world  should give one solace enought to continue to smile while others just shake their heads.

It has been considered almost a fact by the media elites and those in power that having our troops leave Syria now is a poor decision but could the President actually be looking at the situation with a bit more depth then many a pundit? To be honest on this issue I have been leaning toward the punditry but here (below) is why G-D willing we are wrong and the President just might be right.

(1) OTHER COUNTRIES- One thing that unites those countries currently in Syria including the government is their venom position to ISIS. They will continue this fight without any of our greatest assets being on thev ground.

(2) COSTS – By reducing our expenditures in Syria we can utilitze those individuals and capital in areas where the impact can be greater.

(3) VICTORY- Maybe we can actually claim victory in Syria because we have basically defeated ISIS as a threat to our homeland and our allies so why not leave with victory in our hands?

(4) ENEMIES-  Yes, Iran has a footprint in Syria but it continues to be stepped on and that is a cost which will continue to burden the government in charge especially as the sanctions hit them.

Why when you’re given the keys do you still stay in park? Is it because you’re more comfortable with what you have now then a new unknown path ahead? Joseph and his family were given a pass to leave Egypt to bury their father Jacob but for some reason returned the pass. This  led to 400 years (or so) of slavery. We all know the rest of the story so it worked afterwards but I wonder if a didn’t rewrite might have been easier for their descendants? Only G-D knows but if given the keys to leave maybe you should at least start the engine and see where it leads you, even if fear lies ahead.

Has President Trumps defeat on the border moved him into another politician. Where one says they’ll do one thing and gives in at the end to the “deep state”?  One thing I believe most of the deplorables hoped is that this state wouldn’t have it’s tenacles on our President but I fear that it is now grabbing at one of his legs. The President might be just a bit tired of the fight and wants a moment to “just get along”.  Or maybe he’s just playing their game for now until he can start one he can win.  If that is the case  Mr. President just please be careful for when the deep state grabs one leg the other isn’t far behind.

It appears that I’m getting smarter and you are going in the opposite direction, as if I’m sucking out thousands of Neuron’s everyday.  Of course I could be staying the same and you’re just getting dumber. It also is possible that maybe I’m the one who is losing brain power and your the one gaining but I’m just to dumb to perceive the transaction.  In the end I guess we’ll have to think about this a bit more carefully unless one of us has had that ability sucked out of them.
