As soon as Commander Zero learns there are Muslim brothers in Germany, Romania and elsewhere, he’ll order redeployment back stateside...

Russian aggression, er what about ISSI and their ilk killing Christians right now and anyone who opposes them.

We have muslims in Africa attacking Chad, Cameroon and parts of Nigeria. We have mad muslims attacking in Denmark, France, here, UK,Spain and then they are saying they will go for Rome. We have N Africa under attack by them too and not a F=in peep from this administration.

I guess people being burned alive, ethnic cleansing, and heads chopped off is alright with them.

Another stupid decision by the current occupant of the oval office.
This country needs to stay out of that.
0 has a personal grudge against Putin.

Just plain stupid.

I have to think it's just a back stab to Merkel....who I believe told him to "just stop interfering".

This is not a forward deployment of 3,000 additional troops as the headline implies. Rather, as the article states, it is a unit rotation to support an existing overseas training deployment.

They should send them here to Italy to prepare to fight ISIS when they cross over from Libya.

Well at least they aren't being sent to Africa to fight Ebola. That really ticked me off.

They’ll be needed in Italy to defend against Da’esh (ISIS) from Libya

"Russian aggression" in the Ukraine?? Really????

I mean, how long do you think an actual Russian invasion of Ukraine would last? A day? Two days??

That fact that it hasn't happened by now should tell anybody that Russia doesn't WANT the place, or at least they don't want Kiev and all the idiots marching around with Nazi flags. That would be sort of like inheriting an insane assylum.
