Glad for any peace Israel can make with any Arab or muslim country. But do we trust putting US boots on the ground in Shara’s Syria? I don’t.

There's already U.S. troops there. Been there since Obama sent them in 2015, and then sent more the following year.

Yes, but in the Kurdish controlled North East, outside Assad’s and now Shara’s control. We could defend our own from bases in Iraq and the Gulf States.

This is Syria proper under a former ISIS guy. I don’t trust. Keep the barracks small and dispersed…

And, Trump wanted to withdraw troops from Syria during his first term.

“In Damascus” ? I would have expected Tartus and Hmeimim.

I think the headline writer got that wrong. Later in the article the siting sounds well South of Damascus between there and the border with Israel.

“The base sits at the gateway to parts of southern Syria that are expected to make up a demilitarized zone as part of a non-aggression pact between Israel and Syria.”

Russia still occupies Tartus and the Khmeimim air base.

"And, Trump wanted to withdraw troops from Syria during his first term."

Yes. He ordered troops to be withdrawn but right after the 2020 election, U.S. Diplomat for Syria came out and said that defense officials repeatedly misled Trump on the number of troops still in Syria.

Retiring diplomat says defense officials misled Trump on troop count in Syria

In June, President Trump lifted sanctions on Syria. When he was in Saudi Arabia last week, he met with Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa, and it was also announced that Ahmed al-Sharaa will visit the President at the White House on November 10th.

Sickening. Trump is meeting the ISiS man installed in Syria by the CIA and Israelis, meeting him the day before Veterans Day, in the White House. And putting an air base there to protect him.
If this is true, he conned us all.

Hoping the Jerusalem Post is like National enquirer or something and Trump isn’t having that terrorist Al sharaa in there White House the day before Veterans Day.
Praying Trump isn’t that lacking in patriotism and judgement.

Nope. The movie, Escape from New York was a documentary and it is playing out.

Yes me.

Not what I voted for. In fact, nobody voted for (more) troops in the Mideast.

I have spoken with hundreds of Jews in America and Israel each, deeply about the nature and future of Israel.

Never has a single one used the words or concept of a “Greater Israel”. I have only ever heard that here repeatedly from Israel (ahem) skeptics.
