I find it amusing that FR Liberaltarians are all aga-gah over Trump moving US Forces from Syria Northeast to other parts of the Middle East. As if that is somehow significant in regards to bringing US troops home.
But seem to be ignoring thousands of troops going into the Middle East and a hotspot at that.
With some the illusion is grandeur. LoL
RAndy is correct. Al Qaeda targeted the USA for 9/11 because “infidel troops were on holy soil” from 1990 onwards.
American troops need to leave Saudia - to heck with the house of Saud
We shouldn’t be there in the first place.
Nope sorry Rand, if half of Aramco can be disabled by dated drone tech, then Iran would invade the kingdom about 30 minutes after the last US C-130J takes off from Riyadh.
Libertarians are foreign policy idiots.
Having said that, the Saudis ALWAYS want an army of Dhimmis to die for the Kingdom DESPITE all that military equipment they have and a huge population of potential military manpower.
Jihadists are like cockroaches.
You know-I still haven’t figured out this move on Trump’s part. However... THIS is one angle I didn’t consider.
I think it will force the MSM to do its job and address the ME and the hostilities there in a more objective way-if they remember how. It’s something they ceased doing long ago.
This President and the US military -once removed from the equation-cannot no longer be misrepresented by the MSM
Crazy Jihadists don’t need any provocation to hate us.
They just do.
‘magnet for all the crazy jihadists around the world’
It’s good to have them in one spot mega flash ensues.
Maybe, like in Fallujah, we can attract them there and eliminate them enmasse, less to ever have to deal with elsewhere, espc on our shores.
On the other hand, screw the KSA. They have a modern military, US equipment and training, let them fight their battles.
We have plenty of oil to sell to make up shortfalls....
Bad news for Paul bashers. Trump still likes him =>

Senator Rand Paul just wrote a great book, “The Case Against Socialism” which is now out. Highly recommended – as America was founded on LIBERTY & INDEPENDENCE – not government coercion, domination & control. We were born free, and will stay free, as long as I am your President!
