yes, I just posted a link to the Mattis resignation letter, thx
Clearly it is over some disagreement(s) in policy, maybe as rumored views about Syria, Afghanistan....
Could also be that mattis didn’t support the Border mission, refusing to erect tents aNd other stuff. Personally I am glad to see him go. He always was a globalist moderate. Never had much use for the guy.
It doesn’t say “Syria”. He may be upset over the withdrawal of troops which he may think gives the Middle East to Russia/Iran. I’d like very much to know exactly what General Mattis is concerned about in detail. The timing must be related to the Syria announcement yesterday.
