I do NOT want to engage Russia over some terrain in Syria.

Period.

You do not have to. And the Iranian led force engaged US forces in an effort to test the US resolve to hold their positions. The Russian were building a bridge, they were largely non-combatants, but ended up as collateral damage.

Your sentiments would be better directed towards Russia and warning them against colliding with our troops.

but of course, you’re on Team Putin. And we should oblige by his rules. Wherever they apply even beyond his own country be it Europe, Middle East, etc...

Not only should we leave Syria, we should also abandon NATO altogether too. Right?

Everything we do even under Trump, is Neo-Con “empire building” - but for Russia it’s innocent protection of self-interest and they’re entitled to an Empire the likes of the Soviet Union and we should shut up. Okay cool.
