Mark Levin: The decision to withdraw from Syria is ‘absolutely shocking’
Conservative Review ^ | Dec 19 2018 | Jordan Schachtel

Posted on 12/19/2018 4:47:15 PM PST by rintintin

LevinTV host Mark Levin began his radio show Wednesday evening reacting to President Trump’s decision to start withdrawing U.S. troops from Syria.

Calling the decision “absolutely shocking,” Levin explained the geopolitical dynamics of the civil war in Syria.

“There are Christian populations. There are Yazidi populations. There are our allies, the Kurds, who have fought shoulder to shoulder with us. The Russians have sought to take over Syria and control that region of the world. Iran is using Syria to build military bases and military roads to heavily arm Hezbollah, one of the largest terrorist groups on the face of the earth.”

There is no “us” in Syria. Our representatives were never consulted.

I have heard him plenty over the years and he doesn’t strike me as much of a deep thinker either, but some are easily impressed.

He's the least principled host I've listened too.

The absolute King of the Special Pleaders.

The US has a new base in Kurd territory. It’s too costly to hang out where people have been killing each other for 3000 years.

“Limbaugh as well. Only Jones has the perfect sense of the true enemy.”

I don’t remember Rush wanting our boys in Syria helping ISIS. Is that something new?

“Maybe we should ask Syria what they want ?? Last I knew, we weren’t invited.”

As if there is any reason to care what Syria says.

This "peacenik" expresses my opinion well (surprisingly)...

Anthony Wier‏ @antwier
Members of Congress expressing shock--shock!--that the president would unilaterally pull out of a war when Congress year after year has diligently, tirelessly evaded voting on whether to get into that war in the first place: have we hit Peak DC?

Trump always knows what he is doing!

The plan has always been to let the Saudis take the lead and we provide logistics or any kind of support from air to weapons to you name it.But the Saudis take the lead in the mid east which is as it should be. They will be taking out terrorist after terrorist with a fraction of the troops used before.

How do they do all this? With high tech weapons created by the Israelis.(and a billion bucks given to the Israelis by the Saudis)

Our side now has weapons and troops trained so well we can take out 500 troops(they were Russians) and we have done it with barely a dozen or so well trained and weaponized soldiers on the ground.They are Green Beret or Special Forces/Seal type forces.Of that caliber.

Trump always puts America first this time is no exception. He also realizes that CIA=ISIS and until the CIA is cleaned up there will always be an ISIS creating the CIA's mandate of world wide chaos.

The problem with supporting Trump is that you have to do endless research to have even a clue of what he is up to. Once you do you always think twice or three times before you challenge him. Trump is brilliant he knows what he is doing. And after you challenge him, and usually lose, you don't do it again.

....all of these conservative radio hosts roll with the same people as Lyin Ryan and McTurtle do!

I don't even think its that.They are just too lazy to do their own research! When someone like George Webb comes along they avoid him like poison because he shows they how they should be doing their jobs yet don't.
