    Apparently you want died American soldiers in Syria.

    I guarantee that if Trump elected to stay in Syria you would be critical of that decision as well.
    Other than your hatred for Trump do you have a brain.
    And hypocrites on the right are still criticizing Obama for pulling troops out of Iraq so what's your beef, people being killed or who's war it is?

    of course the Kurds want us to stay, although if Erdogan wants to go after them I'm sure he'll call it
    a "terrorist cleanout"and go along the border,but maybe only 20 miles in. ( wide but not deep)

    So our presence doesn't matter anyway - and our mission was never to babysit the Kurds.

    Generals never want to leave any war zone, including Vietnam and now AfPak or Iraq..etc

    What is your point. You want American soldiers to die so six million Syrian refugees can go home. Tell that to the wife or mother of the next died soldier.
    Why don't we arm the six million. See how fast six million can initiate a regime change.
    What other countries are helping us in Syria?

    That's the right's problem. I don't give a shit what the right or left thinks.
    We should not send soldiers to die for some other countries problem until it directly effects the lives of Americans.
    We should have learned that when Kennedy started the Vietnam conflict.

    Will Trump LOSE the whole region?


    Nations, like children, crave predictability. They need to know the rules. The United States is like a parent. Other countries look to it for guidance and to enforce the rules. Trump has utterly failed in that regard. He has been dismissive of alliances — NATO, for instance — and of friendly foreign leaders. In a chaotic world, Trump’s contribution has been more chaos. The question now is not whether he will lose Syria but whether he will lose the entire region. He’s well on his way.

    War in Syria? When did Congress declare and appropriate funds for a war in Syria?

    Never listen to Neocons about maintaining a "presence" or "defending democracy" "leadership"The world doesn't care
    Our "presence" is a good way to get drawn into foreign conflicts

    I'll understand when you don't answer.

    We'll never know;

    The Syrians returning home after years of fleeing war

    After years of people fleeing Syria and its civil war, there are now long queues to enter the country each day. Jordan opened its Jaber border crossing last October after Syrian government troops defeated rebels who had controlled the other side.

    Now several thousand people pass through each day. They include small-scale merchants reviving cross-border trade and returning Syrian refugees who hope to rebuild their lives.
