I don’t doubt that our military can get the job done, it is our political will that get in the way. What is our goal in Syria, if we deploy more troops I want a good explanation not some GW Bush and Obolo hollow talk.
We should just stay out of Syria, the Middle East conflict has no end in sight, our tax dollars are better spent else where.
I’m surprised we are allowed IN! Must have something to do with Israel. Our Marines seem to me to be supporting the Kurds?

“The US-backed SDF are now less than 12 miles away from Raqqa, which IS militants consider their capital.
“According to The New York Times citing a US defense official, an estimated 3,000-4,000 militants still remain in Raqqa.”
