"Mark is highly motivated to protect Israel. Not saying he doesn’t care about America, but he sees the pullout as a potential loss of protection for Israel. "

So where are any comments from Israel on this? The only thing I've found is this: "Israeli prime minister Netanyahu says 'we will safeguard the security' of the country following the American president's announcement." The only other things that showed up in a Bing search was the swamp going berserk claiming they are worried about Israel...which we know is a big, fat lie.

Jerusalem Post - Never before in history has the US worked with a group and then opened the skies to have another US ally bomb and destroy it. On October 9, the Syrian Democratic Forces, a group of mostly Kurdish fighters who fought ISIS for five years and helped create a peaceful and stable area in northeast Syria, were bombed and bombarded by Turkey as US forces withdrew and watched.

In an unprecedented reversal for Washington’s policy in Syria the Americans armed, trained and encouraged the SDF to liberate wide swaths of Syria from ISIS only to turn around on October 6 and, under the leadership of US President Donald Trump, give Turkey the open skies and borders to attack US partner forces. Like thieves in the night, US forces withdrew from their positions without explanation, processes, discussions, or leaving behind people to monitor the area, and made it clear to Ankara that nothing would be done to impede an attack.
