As the world fills its collective diapers about Trump’s announcement that we are withdrawing the 2000 US ground troops from Syria and 7000 ground troops from Afghanistan, we can easily determine what’s happening. The evidence is right there before our eyes.
The soldiers in “boonie” hats are Gulf Arabs, almost certainly Saudis and/or Emiratis.
Initially—in 2015—they operated masked, wearing Kurdish insignia.

Now, most of them don’t wear masks. They have American-style uniforms with no insignia, and they use American weapons and equipment.
American ground troops in Syria engaged in SOME combat, and they trained SOME Syrians, but the real reason Trump sent soldiers, marines, and air force joint terminal attack controllers (JTACs) was to make our enemies have second thoughts. Our enemies weren’t sure how far we’d go. The Russians discovered on February 7, 2018, that we’d go pretty goddam far. Putin learned a lot from that bloodbath.
Another reason that Trump sent troops was as camouflage for OTHER units. Non-American units. This next video is very significant. Although most of the vehicles are American, this one is not.
This is a variant of the General Dynamics Land Systems Pandur armored personnel carrier. The US Special Forces version is the Armored Ground Mobility System (AGMS).
The vehicle in the AFP video has a BGM-71 TOW antitank guided missile launcher. The American AGMS isn’t armed with TOW missile launchers. As Americans moved around in Syria, our Arab allies tagged along, hidden in plain sight.
Not American......The rucksacks are modeled on the British Bergen system.
Those are Gulf Arabs. That man is wearing a very elaborate communications system under his mask. You can see mouthpieces and earpieces. It looks to me that the glasses also have devices on the arm, which is why he’s actually wearing TWO masks. He’s hiding some very high-tech gear.
For years, the US has trained the Iraqis, Afghans, and Syrians to stand on their own. We’ve also asked regional allies to step up.
Now that the training is paying off, and other nations are directly involved on the ground, people are hysterical. Why? Were they only paying lip service to their stated ideals? Yes! They were indeed.
Well, you can have our men and women be sent overseas to fight, or you can have the locals shoulder the burden of putting people on the front line.
