It was some stupid 1 Star General that made that foolish remark about withdrawing!

The only chaos is with the media.

Now doing latrine duty in some tropical barracks.

This is SPY bait—— a strategic data point “leaked” authentically..... and they will roll up all of the network that released it, the US one, and the Iraqi one, and especially the comm chain of custody to... the Iranians/Shia Iraqi Militia.

Very nicely done. Next Predator attack target acquisition in process, and POOF! no more network. The essence of asymmetric warfare.

Current Saudi regime’s clearance of any and all “Sunni” militia-— that is making certain they are not going to frag our spec ops— not rotten apples or worms in them.

[Candor7]

Yep, and it all will happen in about 7 days. Then look out. The Shia militias are going to get such a chewing they will run all the way back to the 12th Imams well in Iran.

[John S Mosby]

And a major reason Saud will do this— is that Quds Force was supporting (and still is there) the Yemen terrorists the Saudis are fighting. Highly motivated to make sure the Sunni militia are true defenders of the faithful, against the apostates. Keep them at this.

Yeah, the media cry “Chaos!” over nothing.

[HollyB]

Because the press goes on and reports on things before verification - when it turns out to be wrong -they say there’s chaos. When it was them that caused the confusion to begin with. The ducks are in a row in the DOD and Oval Office.

“When it turns out to be wrong -they say there’s chaos”

So true.
Their first job is to cover for themselves.

“Chaos “? Solid BS.

If the soldiers are being pulled out, pull out all of the diplomats and supporting staff with them.

Hmmmm... It brings to mind the old tune sung by Jimmy Durante.. “Did you every have the feeling that you wanted to go, you wanted to go but you wanted to stay, stay go, go stay... Ha-cha-cha...!”

[gdc61]

....or did we uncover more deep-state in the military? if not a planned event, heads better roll.

[sport]

I doubt if heads roll.
