The senior official said the strike was a defensive strategy, intended to halt and deter future rocket attacks by the militia group that recently hit Baghdad and Erbil.

This smells of a ruse, a fake act to cover the fact that Biden and Co will soon be selling out to the store to Iran as Obama did, much to the delight and appreciation of Russia and the ChiComs who stand firmly behind Iran.

*** You think that Trump wanted them to go back into Syria? ***

It doesn’t/didn’t matter what Trump “wanted”. The bottom line is we didn’t leave. His Sanctions kill/killed innocents. And he surrounded himself with global manifest destiny thugs.

The destruction of Syria, supporting terrorists, stealing their natural resources in no way benefits everyday Americans.

Trust me, I don’t look forward to the day payback/Karma to this Country happens.
