again another country moves their troops into Syria without Syrian approval. Norway will send some 60 troops, including special forces soldiers, to train, advise and give operational support to Syrian fighters battling Islamic State militants, the country's prime minister said on Monday.

Norway had previously sent 120 soldiers to Iraq to help to train Iraqi and Kurdish forces fighting Islamic State in northern Iraq. Those troops are still in Iraq.
Norway's decision comes a week after the United States announced its biggest expansion of U.S. ground troops in Syria since its civil war began.

“Worthless by any measure...”
Which is exactly what is intended. It’s just window-dressing - PR - to show the sheeple they are “doing something.” In the meantime, let the “refugees” into the home country, cover up their crimes - the purpose for which is best known to the elites, but not to anyone else.
