Wow, looks like ISIS has a lot of allies in here. 14 people here support ISIS! Only three oppose them. Incredible!
Ad hominem, trolling bullshit.
Yes or no - do you seriously think that I support ISIS?
Just 'Yes' or 'No'?
As for my supporting Trump's pullout?
ISIS has no air force or navy and has - at most - 2,000 troops in Syria. The vast majority of those are (apparently) mercenaries - not terrorists.
They are no military threat to the United States WHATSOEVER. And they are FAR too busy fighting for their lives to be a terrorist thread. And even if they were - that is up to law enforcement agencies to deal with (as they present themselves).
Maybe you don't mind brave American soldiers dying in the middle of nowhere, violating international laws by invading sovereign nations whenever American leaders see fit. But I do.
American troops in Syria had NO LEGAL RIGHT to be there. The duly elected, Syrian government did not invite them and wanted them to leave. That makes it an act of war.
And maybe you are for invading countries whenever the mood strikes you. But I am not.
Check out the map:
Syrian Civil War Map - Live Middle East Map of the Syrian Civil War
ISIS has been reduced to a tiny pocket that the Syrian government could easily eradicate (as they had all other ISIS pockets in their sphere of influence) if it were not located inside the Kurdish-held area of Syria that American troops support.
Yet, that pocket has been there for months and the Kurds have done little to close it.
Tell that to the Kurds that have died fighting ISIS that they have done nothing the past few months. General Mattis believes it would be best to keep U.S. troops in Syria. Your manchild President who does not even know what the nuclear triad is, thinks he knows better. He obviously doesn't and unfortunately you are blind to that.
You ducked my question...coward. Answer it or stop wasting my time.
Yes or no - do you seriously think that I support ISIS?
Just 'Yes' or 'No'?
And I think Trump is - other then this decision - a HORRIBLE POTUS.
If you support pulling U.S. troops out of Syria, it helps ISIS. It possibly allows them to survive and gives them a chance to rebuild.
If you support actions that help ISIS, then you are supporting ISIS. So the answer is YES!
Fine...show me a link to unbiased, factual proof (not opinions) that the U.S. pulling out of Syria helps ISIL?
And show me a link to unbiased,factual proof (NOT opinions) that America pulling out of Syria will increase the chances of a major terrorist attack - by ISIL - against America?
You do realize American troops had almost nothing to do with directly attacking the remaining, small ISIL pocket? They were leaving it up to the Kurds...who were failing at accomplishing this.
That's incorrect, U.S. airstrikes were being launched that were vital to taking the ISIS pocket. Donald Trump just stopped those Airstrikes. The link I provided is unbiased and just provides factual data. It does not list or state opinions on ANYTHING!
