‘I kept the oil’: Donald Trump defends U.S. withdrawal

‘I kept the oil’: Donald Trump defends U.S. withdrawal thumbnail

President Donald Trump defended his policy on Turkey as the NATO ally faces scrutiny from member nations – and repeated his assertion that he ‘kept the oil’ inside Syrian territory.

The president proclaimed: ‘We can do with the oil that we want’ – although the Pentagon said last month that Syrian Democratic Forces were getting revenue generated by oil facilities occupied inside Syria.

Trump was asked at the start of NATO meetings in London if Turkey is a dependable member of the treaty organization, prompting him to defend both Turkey’s actions that have rankled the alliance and his own policy moves.

‘It’s a country i have a good relationship with,’ Trump said. ‘We did a deal that everybody was critical of. And it works.

‘I want to get our soldiers out of there. I wanted to keep the oil. Now, they say, that was a great deal that Trump made.’

He said he ‘would hope’ that Turkish President Recep Erdogan ‘will be a good member of the NATO.

Trump defends withdrawing troops but ‘keeping oil’ in Syria

He defended his pullout from the northern border with Syria, which precipitated a Turkish invasion that led to attacks on Kurdish U.S. allies who had battled ISIS alongside U.S. forces.

‘We left their border. We’ve been on their border long enough. They’re doing just fine on their border. We kept the oil. I kept the oil,’ Trump said of oil fields inside Syria that the U.S. is guarding to keep out of the hands of ISIS.

Although Trump has said ISIS has been defeated, he spoke Tuesday of residual forces.

‘The only people we have over there now, we have a few, a small group that are fighting the remnants of ISIS because they pop up again, and we put them down. We’ve defeated the ISIS caliphate. Nobody thought we could do that … I did it very quickly. When I came in it was virtually 100 per cent and I knocked it down to zero.

    Rather than trying to prop up the UK left, the leftist Independent already admits defeat and fears a no-deal Brexit:

    https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/jo-swinson-conservatives-majority-general-election-progressive-a9232361.html

    “Don’t kid yourselves, progressives – Jo Swinson is so bad she’s helping build a Tory majority”

    It will bring the end of the West closer, but also EU-UK rivalry and even potential hostility, leaving the EU little alternative but to make a full U-turn towards Eurasia and the New Silk Road and a reduced chance that the EU+Russia can prevent a racial-bolshevik revolution in Anglosphere. It would bring the world of Orwell-1984 closer: 4 competing, hostile geopolitical blocks, with border skirmishes but no all-out war between any of the two, because that would only benefit the non-participants in the conflict.

    Back to the link about food standards…

    macca123us, Aberdeen, United Kingdom, 3 minutes ago

    Every year in America there are 1.2 million cases of salmonella, 23,000 hospitalisations and 450 deaths. In the EU as a whole with 150 million more people there were 1766 hospitalisations and 10 deaths. The chlorinating of the chicken isn’t the problem it’s the reason they do it the birds are kept in such disgusting conditions they need to be chlorinated, think of rubbing a raw chicken around a dirty toilet bowl then washing it off and you get the idea

    From the Netherlands, Vlaardingen, Netherlands, 10 hours ago

    When the issue of US food quality comes up, the talking point always seems to be that chicken, but that chicken is just such a small part of the issue. The overall US food quality is just poor, and full of artificial additives etc. with only one thing in mind, and that’s PROFIT. And you won’t be able to tell it from the label, don’t be so naive. US food manufacturers and trade-companies aren’t stupid, they know it would hurt sales if their products are easily identifiable so some sneaky regulations to prevent that will be part of any future trade deal

    al murray, down the pub, United Kingdom, 34 minutes ago

    in the US 11% of the population suffers some form of food poisoning annually….in the EU as a whole it is 0.6% and in the developed EU countries it is less than 0.2%…nothing else to discuss.

    Europe is basing its manufacturing future on these:

    “Beijing No Longer Seems Interested In Footing The Bill For Electric Vehicles”
    https://tinyurl.com/vxm59xj zero hedge

    “EVs were once thought to be the unlimited silver lining behind an automotive industry that has all but collapsed into severe recession in China. But now, it’s looking like Beijing isn’t so excited to help sustain the EV niche of the market anymore, according to the Wall Street Journal. And Beijing’s ambivalence is starting to show up in the numbers. EV sales fell off a cliff after June of this year, when the government slashed purchase subsidies. From July to October, sales of new energy cars were down 28% from the year prior. Many buyers prior to this had purchased vehicles in anticipation of the subsidy cut, which makes the sales “hangover” even worse. But the drop, on its own, still suggests that demand could be waning under the surface without government incentive. EVs are still priced above conventional cars when they are not stapled to a government subsidy. Luxury EVs have buyers in places like Shanghai and Beijing, partially because they are exempt from the country’s license plate rationing in these areas. But restrictions on convention ICE cars are now starting to relax as the government continues to seek ways to end the country’s auto recession. Shenzhen and Guangzhou increased their license-plate quota in June and other cities may do the same… Regardless, automakers will continue to push out EVs in China, even if they aren’t profitable. The same is expected to happen in the EU. Beijing, similar to Brussels, requires a certain percentage of cars to meet new energy requirements, which could cause a glut in the market. One last shred of demand hope comes from channel stuffing actually comes from the automakers themselves, many of whom are setting up their own ride sharing networks. With this being the case, the “ride” for the EV market looks like it could be bumpy and grim going forward…”

    Yep. China is apparently shifting from battery e-vehicle towards hydrogen e-vehicle.

    I have always said that my intuition tells me that some hydrogen derivative, obtained from a conventional fuel station, makes more sense than plastering a country full with millions of charging poles.

Well, it’s the cheerleading squad for “seventeen” government agencies that add up to the craftily-labeled “intel community,” a warm-and-fuzzy coalition of snoops, false witnesses, rogue lawfare cadres, seditionists, and bad-faith artists working sedulously to hide their previous misdeeds with ever-fresh ones. They’re the party against free speech, the party against due process of law, the party determined to provoke war with Russia. They’re the party of sexual confusion, sexual hysteria, and sexual conflict, the party of kangaroo courts, cancel culture, erasing boundaries (including national borders), and of making up rules for all that as they go along — like the Nazis and Soviets used to do. The ideas and policies they advocate are so comprehensively crazy that their old support of slavery looks quaintly straightforward in comparison.”

    “Yep. China is apparently shifting from battery e-vehicle towards hydrogen e-vehicle.”

    Mr. cloggo, shifting to hydrogen if China is even doing that, does not mean cutting support for EV’s is not happening. So you are full of shit by saying cutting EV subsidies is fake news.

    “I have always said that my intuition tells me that some hydrogen derivative, obtained from a conventional fuel station, makes more sense than plastering a country full with millions of charging poles.”

    You bounce all over the place depending on the weather one week it is batteries the next hydrogen. You cherry pick and message then re-cherry pick and message depending on the possibility of a cloggo fantasy story. IOW you are a fraud.

    Currently in Holland and elsewhere in western Europe, petrol costs 1.69 euro per liter or $7,- per gallon.

    The German environment ministry has said that gasoline needs a price boost of up to 70 cents (40%) in order to achieve climate goals to arrive at $10 per gallon:
