So your answer is perpetual war and perpetual bloodshed?

All you and your twit never-Trump pansies got is strawman arguments. YOU and YOUR fellow travelers are only ones suggesting “perpetual war.” False premise begets further falsehoods.

The “last 16 years,” blah-blah-blah ... conveniently omits the fact that the last two presidents were not interested in fighting to win, but rather in prosecuting a war as though it were a court battle, having bullsh*t ROEs that served not American interests, but rather ensured our enemy held its tenacious foothold in the region, and further expand it.

Of course, the reality of facts on the ground does not fit the asinine narrative of quislings and quitters - and the same individuals believe the rest of us cannot see through their “perpetual” bullsh*t

“So your answer is perpetual war and perpetual bloodshed?”

So your answer is just another question?

Oh, I dunno - how about the answer our President gave yesterday - don’t nation-build. Kill terrorists. I don’t see that as “perpetual war and perpetual bloodshed,” since the country WILL eventually run out of terrorists.

You have no more of an idea what the new plan looks like or how it will be implemented than anyone outside of his inner circle. Just because he did not drop and run at this specific time is all you care to focus on.

But, it appears our guys have ISIS caught in a pincher between Raqqa and Al Qa’im along the Euphrates. Not heard much about what is going on in Raqqa but it appears that faction is also encircled. Action in and around Dier Ez-Zor is being levied by virtually everyone against ISIS and they are taking heavy, heavy losses.

So, just like we are not being told what our tactics and plans/successes are in those areas, I would wager we will see the same to be totally counter what has been done. Just that the ROE’s are being trimmed dramatically tells me the plan is to do exactly what was needed all along. Kill people and break things. No safe harbor.

What is more important is what he did not mention. Just think about those for a while. If you can’t build a list then you have no more of an idea what it he did tell you as you did of what he didn’t.

Before Trump took office, ISIS was an “intractable” problem in Iraq and Syria.

My how things can change when a real leader takes over.
