There are no “good guys” in Syria.

Your quote is from the President Trump we elected. We should not be in Syria. We should not be supporting troops in Syria that seek to overthrow their government. Why are we STILL doing so?

I thought the new mission was to annihilate ISIS, ant that's it. No more regime change.

"A US-backed force in Syria said a Russian airstrike wounded six of its fighters....

And this is part of the danger here - what if it was six US Army Rangers that got hit by Russion pilots?
Mistakes do happen (we hit our own men sometimes), but what would be the fallout to direct Russian/US military contact?
