Tim Ryan, Tulsi Gabbard Spar On Afghanistan | NBC News
She got my vote
@
I do think it’s a damned if you do damned if you dont situation
3:35
“You know who’s protecting al-Qaeda right now, it’s Saudi Arabia.”
Let’s keep our troops and drones in third world countries to make the populations of these countries hate us even more with all the collateral damage, accidental deaths, accidental arrests and giving them this overwhelming feeling that they’re being occupied by a foreign government…. yeah, that will decrease hatred and terrorism.
The end of a man. Don’t spar with someone who knows better than you. Bye bye Tim Ryan.
See that’s why American people hate thhese politics ! They hide the truth and just use words “ taliban” etc to use their agendas ! She exposed thre truth ! It’s not taliban , it’s alqaeda! If u don’t even know the difference how can u trusted to make any FAIR DECISION ???
Tim Ryan is way out of his league. The look on his face when Tulsi starts truth telling is priceless! At that moment he realizes his canned answers not enough to spar with Tulsi and his 15 minutes of fame will be spent displaying how big of a doofus he is.
This guy is clueless
TULSI 2020
A Gabbard/Yang combo will burn the establishment down.
Mark my words. Our next president will be one of the two. And hopefully they pair up. Peace and prosperity <3
We were never attacked by Afghanistan, so it must be about something else ?
Taliban is bigger in Afghanistan due to Pakistan government thay funding them and supply them arms..whole world know 9/11 planed in Pakistan..but I can’t understand why the government of America take action against Pakistan..the reason is clear America stand Pakistan against India now in present time terrorist Pakistan play game with America and shifted with china..
I’m going to meet her today.
Tulsi just straight up murders people on live TV. No wonder they censor her.
🤣🤣🤣 Only Pro-Peace candidate that murder people in debates with truth bombs! They are scare and cutting Tulsi off in her debates now. All the propaganda corporate media are smear Tulsi. She destroyed Tim Ryan and he is out of running. She destroy Kamala Harris and call out lying NYT& CNN in the debates. She told of warmonger Hillary Clinton. I 💖 TULSI!!! #Tulsi2020 #EndtheWars 🕊☮💖🇺🇸💪✊🌺
Thank God for Tulsi Gabbard
Dear Debetor you all know who is created TALIBAN…..so don’t fool people😂🙊
Nailed …
Americans want to be engaged in wars
I stand with Ms. Gabbard.
.
Finally, a democrat worthy of respect.
.
Do not mess with Trey Gowdy or Tulsi Gabbard. Trey and Tulsi for 2020.
Go Tulsi Gabbard.. smack them..everyone is scared of you.. even Benghazi lady..
Madame President Gabbard has more balls than everyone else on that stage combined!!! Gabbard 2020!! Grab them by the balls!
She got balls.
Tim Ryan.. 😛😛😛
The lesbian brings up a good question!
TIM RYAN EASY FOR A COWARD NOT SERVING TO SAY.
Tulsi advocated a Syria pullout too. Look how that worked out when Trump did that. Of course…she was Assad’s guest. And ask her. She brings the boys home: is she firing them? Got a job lined up for them? Ryan is right: *fight the enemy there or fight them here.* Our enemies are not going away. That is the lesson of 9/11 that Tulsi chooses to ignore. And btw, she’s as bad as Jim Jordan at talking over people.
Presidential material in the waiting – Tulsi for president
He shoulda let it go
Tulsi tells the truth. Simple as that.
Tulsi 2020!
Al Qaeda did not attack America. It rejoiced by the event of 9-11.
Tulsi BODIED him!
Tulsi is the only person fit to lead I’ll bet they block her from future debates
Taliban are uber fanatical & national – the “infidels” on their soil only feeds their hate…
This better to get out & support the moderates from afar…
Taliban are uber fanatical & national – the “infidels” on their soil only feeds their extremist militarism.
They are like a child with a weapon.
They need time & negotiations to wake them up from their radicalized hesteria.
They can be bought off as Abdul Haqq, the mujahideen commander explained. Answers are way simpler than we care to admit.
Tis better to get out & support the moderates from afar.
Yeah she right about the war wrong about literally every other issue whether it’s healthcare bds borders unions Israel shilling…tulsi is trash
Tulsi I known Ryan for years,he’s not very bright.
Tulsi 2020
Tulsi just destroyed this Ryan guy. Im a trumper and Im eyeing her. Yikes….
They are here for poppy and Afghanistan’s natural resources and Trump is just making fool of his own people he will never bring back his troops until he get all those poppy
“How would you get us out of Afghanistan?” Tim Ryan – “We must stay engaged… But this President (Trump) isn’t engaged… And we could use the cost of one of those $130,000,000 drones that get shot down to help Flint, Michigan or Youngstown, Ohio…” (Editorial Note: Did you hear an answer to the question or merely some “fluff” commentary which then segued into an unrelated talking point? Fact Check: A Predator Drone, our most expensive, operational drone, costs $4.03 Million, not “$130 Million” – and you could buy over 145 of them for what Obama gave Solyndra to stave off bankruptcy until after the election – think what that much money could do for Flint or Youngstown).
Incidentally, as far as Trump’s “not being engaged”, Trump actually has had meetings WITH the Taliban and Afghan Government AT CAMP DAVID! Personal “engagement”, not relying on some “Deep State” bureaucratic “envoy” whose policies and prejudices got us into Afghanistan in the first place! Trump cancelled the last such Camp David meeting when this attack they are discussing occurred and he sent the message of his displeasure by using drones, NOT American soldiers. Oh, and no drones – or soldiers – were lost in those retaliatory strikes. And, even as I write this (on 11/28/19), it appears that the Taliban is once more willing to come to the table and to accept and enforce a “cease fire” as a precondition thereto. Seems like reasonably effective “engagement” to me. As far as Rep. Gabbard’s point is concerned, she’s partially right (little has changed) but is wrong on the role of the Taliban in 9/11. The real answer is that we had actually WON in Afghanistan and then threw away the win by: (1) Trying to “nation build”, a policy which she rightly opposes; and (2) By diverting our efforts to the entirely idiotic invasion of Iraq (I’m considered a bit of a hawk, but I predicted every disaster that would come of that event and I’ve not been disappointed, well, actually, I have been disappointed, just not proven wrong…). Failing grade to both, but Ryan gets an F minus for spilling meaningless gobbledygook. Gabbard at least directly addressed the issue.
HitlergruB 📍🕹
Bye Bye. Tim, It’s the Mirror we look at at the end of the day.
Tulsi is good
finally a politician who is truthfully trying to stand up for my father’s brothers and sisters in arms and not just pretending.
Ryan is such a tool🔧
Omg please stop it i think we deserve to have troops there as defenders not as assault men meaning we have troops station there we dont push on territories but we hold on the places we have to protect like the men the women and EVEN THE CHILDREN hes right we pull troops they grow but she is also right we place troops there we loss valuable soldiers and resources, this is a decision we ask the troop we take the volunteers who want to protect others we give them enough supplies and we train the men who deserve better lives for there families and themselves think about it we defend we shouldnt fight we always have time talk to leaders we have time to look through possible chances that gives us an all better lives -Jack N.
God she’s so beautiful
We spend $31 million dollars PER HOUR on these wars. Thank you Tulsi for bringing this up to our attention.
U.S. troop withdrawal means a chance for Middle Eastern terror groups to grow back. Don’t want that again.
When she calls you out for being a hawk, and you give her that look…
Tulsi Gabbard is boss
Left-wing.
Yuh-huh. The U.S. Prez, whoever it is, could easily find themselves on day 1 deploying US military assets somewhere. That’s the complex world we live in. Anyone with 12 years experience on the Armed Services Committee would understand that. We need to remain ready to fight as long as we have Commiecrats in the world with their nose in everybody’s business & their fingers in everybody’s wallets.
Tulsi gabbard 2020
https://youtu.be/Ac5D6og9Z54 Well Surprise Surprise
never trust a white man (Tim Ryan) with no lips. So many old white men have no lips!
I fell out of love with Tulsi when she didn’t have the courage to vote yay or nay on Trump’s impeachment. “Present” is not a vote. Tulsi, was horrible Hilary right in calling you a Russian asset? I no longer defend your visit with Assad!
What a gal this Tulsa is
Tulsi 2020
riikerman So you prefer spending trillions and trillions of dollars on all these illegal wars
Wars against Middle Eastern terrorists are legal rather than illegal.
riikerman The only terrorist that attacked us were from Saudi Arabia Afghanistan Iraq Syria all illegal wars
@Lawrence Hauper Iraq and Syria were ISIL’s strongholds. We needed to war with them in those countries to free their citizens from ISIL’s power. ISIL regains power if troop withdrawal from Iraq and Syria become effective.
riikerman It’s sad how ignorant you are and 90% of the American people as well
Argument: It’s bad because Trump did it. 😛
Every woke person knows it was the Bush administration that had everything to do with 911! So sick of these politicians straight out lying to the American public with scare tactics. Even you know that Tulsi Gabbard
2 lives lost and he brought up the cost of losing a drone… shot yourself buddy..
They even erased her final words from the transcript, dude… (right on top of the subscribe button)
She hit a nerve right there, no question about that
She crushed this debate…liken her
He shoulda let it go…
Tulsi: You know who’s protecting Al-Qaeda? Saudia Arabia.
Media: Oh crap, hurry, cut, quick!
Debate 1: Tulsi murders Tim Ryan
Debate 2: Bernie murders him as well.
What an embarrassment.
Sanders/Gabbard murder Trump /pence 2020
Yet we send money to “Saudi Arabia” and watch Trump dance with them when their government was involved in hitting the twin towers thanks to Trump and this piece of filth who wants to stay in Iraq.
America being the Worlds Bully has to stop. Let other Countries self Govern or self destruct. Tulsi is Genuine.
MUST WATCH

Super slow motion
The Taliban are not the terrorists it was AQ. I also served 4 tours in combat.
*_If you go for a war against terrorism, then something very bad can happen in the battlefield and it’s always a test of endurance. This war is a part of global politics but don’t forget that the fundamental formula of politics is the division of human hearts due to two philosopies (good and evil), and war becomes unavoidable because politics does not compromise with any contradictory ideology. Evil is when an innocent civilian is killed, because he/she is not a warrior of this war._*
Tim looks like he’s about ready to faint.
Fuq u msm. I hope y’all hang. Coman verga!
Tim, the Taliban was burning the poppy fields. Now, US soldiers are guarding the poppy fields for big pharma, and the opioid epidemic is 1000 times worse than it was in 2001.
Democrats. Stop the BS. Tulsi2020 should be your nominee. I would vote for her and I am a REPUBLICAN. Make it happen!
President Tulsi
Tulsi is the only democrat I like
EXACTLY 18 years for what? for the American people to die for what?
Has any other candidate personally ended the campaigns of 2 other candidates?
TULSI2020!! The best candidate in a generation.
The funny thing is he thought he would get an excellent opportunity to rip on Trump and act like the “reasonable” voice in the middle of the debate, with his punchline about Youngstown, and he expected apllause and a skyrocketing in the polls
Tulsi is the only hope. Sanders is a loser. Can’t even stand up for himself
Go dam!!! Tulsi has more balls than any of this man put together!!!!
Tim ryan, just stop
It’s scripted. The Creepy looking guy acts like he is losing & they let the Pretty women look smart on TV. This Tulsi is a Snake 🐍..
Tulsi should have been our President
Tim Ryan looks like the not-real Slim Shady
Actually, Bush attacked us on 9/11. The Illuminati cards pertaining to the twins towers and the Pentagon were played by the Illuminati. The towers were constructed in 1968 and collapsed in 2001. That is a time span of 33 years. The highest degree in Freemasonry is 33. Those towers were meant to come down in 2001. Don’t listen to these politicians! They don’t tell the truth. Check out Zachary Hubbard’s channel for more info on the agenda behind 9/11.
Prpogandest of lager level on her inner side don’t trust her
Why????
Because you never focus history..
History devlops certain kind of mindset and culture.
And for afghanistan… This region has never allowed to rule others over themselves for more than 5000 years..
Greek, Chinese, mangol, mugal, British, USSR and now Nato…
They all thought that they have won this region.
But each and every single time the people near sindhukush region proved them that this place could be won but it couldn’t be ruled by foreigners.
… Indian ….
They are in war for 5000 years…..
Please read history of Afghanistan and Indian subcontinent.
People of USA it’s too hard to change this people in just 20-30 years .
I have a hard time with imagining America letting our guard down with the middle east. Its doesnt feel right but thats why we need a present like tulsi to make sure America can develop a peaceful relationship with all countries. yes thats expecting alot and maybe it seems illogical. The only way to bring balance into the world is if we have a global policy to ensure healthy and environmental boundaries. I think Tulsi can make this happen. And Yes, I think that hostile cultures should always be monitored yes, but not oppressed in devisation. We need a world where every country can live in Peace. We need a world where every culture has a common ground to thrive on like Liberty. ~ Aqua D
September 11th happens, Taliban supports Al Qaeda.
.. welp well they’ve (Taliban) been there a while.. let’s not do anything about it.
Some people have scary logic.
Tulsi was the only one who could have defeated Trump.
Tim. Scripted rhetoric. He needs the war to continue since it gets him money. For a moment there: it looked like his head was going to explode.
Please re-elect our Jesus Christ loving President Donald J.Trump for second term.Amen.
