    The buried lede in the stories of Russians taking over U.S. bases in Syria is that… we had large, permanent bases in Syria! They were never the subject of debate in Congress, political campaigns or elsewhere. It's just accepted that the President will deploy troops wherever

        Pretty much all US military bases except WW2-era or older ones are theoretically "temporary", made entirely out of kits that can be field-disassembled, because Congress has to approve any "permanent" base. Rather than put it up for debate and authorization, they chose fancy tents

        @wendoverpro did a great dive into this a while back. Not only do they not get any debate in Congress, but many of them aren't officially acknowledged. Anywhere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0qt0hdCQtg …

        Along with 5,000 special forces in Syria as well as semi-permanent munitions storage facilities which they had to destroy. We are at permanent war in the world.

        In my time, it wasn't a permanent base unless it had a McDonalds (Navy/Marines) or a Burger King (Army/Air Force). These have neither.
