I understand we have 50 people there. If removing these folks from the region causes as much death and devastation as is being predicted, then God help us all.
As for it being a surprise, Trump campaigned on this, and announced it last year. 50 people. That could be 3 SF A teams, a few CIA field ops, and 6 FAC's. The right 50 guys can facilitate a lot of damage.

I sure as hell hope not, Mr. President. You're our only hope. There’s the problem. Always expecting others to do what is our own responsibility. No one is coming to save you. You will need to get off your dead ass and do it yourself. It may help if others do the same, and those hardy souls learn to cooperate for the good of all.

These guts are great warriors, loyal and yet we are simply abondoning them again. WTF.
We should move them down to protect our sourthern boarder.. Because Trump is a worthless POS. The worst mistake anybody can make is to trust him. He will screw anybody if given the chance. Contractors, business partners, investors, porn stars, voters, advisers, cabinet members, banks, the American people, our allies, the Constitution, the rule of law. It's just Trump being Trump.

I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

Pot <----> Kettle... https://www.vitals.com/doctors/Dr_Jon_Middleton/reviews Billed insurance after refusing to treat Self-verified patient of Dr. Jon A Middleton - Posted on February 26th, 2019
I went in to instacare on the weekend while pregnant because I was having some pain and just hoping to hear a heart beat. The front desk took my co pay fully knowing I was pregnant and that was the reason for my visit. The Dr came in didn’t even say hello and just said you are pregnant, I won’t do anything for you and left the room. He managed to be extremely condescending in the exact 15 seconds he spent in the room. A week later I got a bill saying he had billed me for a visit. For doing absolutely nothing. Won’t be going back to ihc instacare in case he’s still employed. Avoid at all cost.

Why would you name your people after cheese? The Americans and Swiss already took the good names. Heathens.

The Kurds were allies of convenience. You know: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Let 'em keep all the weapons we gave them and wish them well on our way out.

USC is the Kurd's hometown. They were born there, they been there a thousand years and if they live they will be there a thousand more.
It ain't my fault, we don't owe them any thing.

[quote=gregintenn]I understand we have 50 people there. If removing these folks from the region causes as much death and devastation as is being predicted,... there are more like 1000 US troops in Syria, [well that's an official type figure for what it worth] White House said it was withdrawing 50 SF from the N.E. border area, cause its expecting Turkey to begin a serious offensive against the Kurds and doesn't want US casualties from the X fire. ...off the record WH officials have indicated more 150 + have been pulled back from two bases, which will be relocated to other bases in Syria. quote]... . ..White House said in a late Sunday statement that the U.S. military "will not support or be involved in" an expected military operation by Turkey in northern Syria, and U.S. forces "would no longer be in the immediate area."

Since they wont put down their long standing hatred of each other over there I don't see any solution other than one side to wipeout the other. I understand also that their are many sides. If they want to have tribalism and kill each other then let them. I am 57 and I have seen little progress in the conflicts over there which have been issues all my life. I have only seen American blood and treasure expended and The hate for America for being involved. We are stupid to continue on the same course we have been on for 70 years. What are the results???

From what I'm reading the number is under 100 troops, If that is the case then get them out, this could quickly become Trumps Benghazi, and we don't need any more of that, leave them weapons and food and get the hell out!

My Marine SIL did two tours in Iraq, right across the border from this area. He said they did not trust the Kurds anymore than the Iraqis. He is a quiet, no BS Recon Marine. There are no answers, so either kill them all/break things, or come home. Our Military is NOT the Peace Corp nor Nation Builders.
