Wow, it’s about time. Leaving US troops there only adds fuel to that fire.

I suspect a deal was made with Russia vis-a-vis toning down the vole in Ukraine/black Sea. Erdogan was a non-factor in withdrawl. Plus Trump saw no good reason to stay and mop up. He probably got a commitment from the russiams to do it for us.

Yes it is and I couldn't be happier.

I hope this is the beginning for all of them to get out of the middle east.

They deserve a big welcome home.

:: Put the troops on the border. ::

They would likely prefer a break from having to deal with angry brown people from a sh!thole country.

I love this decision, but I SERIOUSLY doubt the Deep State will let it happen. They want us to be there. They are allied with the Jihadists, in fact. Watch for another staged chem attack by them to be blamed on the Syrian govt.

Wow, it’s about time.

About time? Trump has been in office what, 1 year 10 months?

The last Republican president had us involved in 10+ year long "Compassionate wars" costing multiple trillions, which looted the American treasure.

“First reaction is distraction from no wall.”

The “Syria” DoD budget is likely to be redirected to the Wall.

Poor Erdogan.

He will get very, very tired killing off the Kurds.

Watch Democrats shout as if they are The War Party over pulling U.S. troops out of Syria.

Oh wait... Democrats are in full conspiracy theory mode now. They’ll claim that Trump is doing Putin’s bidding instead of getting Americans out of a war zone that we haven’t declared war on.

I doubt this is going to happen. When State Dep’t and Military say we are in for the foreseeable future, and we have eleven, IIRC “bases” there, and we are stealing their oil..

Plus, Israel wants us there.
