    Notice no one demanding perpetual US troop presence in Syria can cite some groundswell of popular support for their position. That's because 1) It's an elite-driven preoccupation 2) The mission was never properly debated in the first place 3) Endless war is actually not popular

        You could even go as far as say that a (not so tiny) fraction of populace voted for Trump on anti-war grounds.

        Between the troop withdrawal and the tepid prison reform, I might have to give Trump credit for doing two good things in as many days.

        Can't we tracepretty much all of this back to the proposed construction of 3 pipelines towards europe? One through Syria (from Iran and through Iraq), one through the baltic sea from Russia (nord stream), and one through crimea to turkey?

        yeah but people are saying this is a benefit to Russia. I cannot believe these Russigaters and their dedication to the lie. Happy to hear withdrawal from Syria.

        The absence of popular support isn't necessarily the yard-stick to use..... sometimes unpopular decisions can turn out to be right! It takes a brave politician to follow that course though.

        Actually it is, considering the popularity is being (correctly) measured by those funding it. Aka taxpayers.

        Its a small mission with the local communities doing the heavy lifting. Plus have you spoken to anyone in the communities where the USA is present ? you seem to have to no empathy for the kurds & arabs who fought ISIS, & will be left alone .

        Amazing how the MIC sycophantic Corp Dems bellow in chorus when Trump tries to de escalate anywhere. He’s crazy, but let’s give him 90 billion more for war, and attack him from the right on foreign policy. Disgusting

        1. Trump is the elite 2. Utter rubbish. It was unilaterally agreed to. 3. If war were waged on a popularity vote of the people it would be a very rare occurrence.
