How do you feel about the decision to pull American troops out of Syria?

It's great that we wants to do that. Personally I am on Trump's side with this one. Bring them all home and focus on our own infrastructure. We have to fix ourselves before we go helping others. I see what he is trying to do.

I just thought if something.
The Kurds are thinking if releasing a butt load of ISIS fighters. Sunni.
Russia and Iran probably don't really want to fight ISIS and Turkey is giving cover over a western section of Syria loaded with Sunnis.
If Russia, Iran and Syria push the Sunni's too hard, Turkey and the Saudis will show up. That would be a Sunni/Shia religious showdown. We know who Trump backs.
Who is the next SoD?

I think MAJ. Montgomery summed up what is going on nicely.

Turkey has been planning to invade Syria for a while. The link below is from July.
Looks like it was going to eventually happen.

If we had not pulled out, would we be fighting Turkey right now?

There's more to this than the media is saying, and looks like whatever is happening there, most of the media wants to make it look like all Trump's fault.

Not until the task is properly finished....The suicide attacks shows that some people don't like the timeline that we have

This is a horrible decision. ISIS is degraded probably to the level that Al Qaeda is degraded, but the Syrian theater isn't just about ISIS and a safe haven for terrorism. We are ceding influence to Russia and Iran, and Secretary Mattis wasn't able to convince President Trump of this strategic reality. Any time a presidential candidate talks about getting the US Military out of a conflict, they rarely offer strategic-level reasoning and instead express the overly simplistic reason of wanting to get the troops home. We should want to achieve our nation's strategic objectives (whatever they might be at the time), which gets the troops home, not just get them home because. Whether people agree with the notion of a second "Cold War" or not, the undeniable facts are that Russia has acted over and over again like the old Soviet Union since the mid-2000s with operations in Georgia and Ukraine, and moves like supporting Assad. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it might just be a communist duck....

There are no good/honorable allies in the Middle East other than Israel, only those who support us based on their own interests (Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Egypt). Despite the widespread disdain throughout the Middle East for the U.S.A. we are able to maintain these delicate relationships so we can continue to have forward deployed logistics and air power projection. This is a lousy position to be in for the United States. No country in the Middle East supports the Assad regime except Iran, so leaving Syria only makes Iran and Syria happy (and the Russians), and gives Turkey the opportunity to move on the Kurds.

ISIS is wrecked, Syria, the nation and it's government, is in chaos with Russia as its most significant ally. If, or when, ISIS regroups we'll hit them in their new AO, if it's in our interest to do so. Russia rebuilds Syria??? Yeah, I'm not holding my breath on that one.

I don't and didn't mind helping a country defend itself; however, there is my belief that I will only help those who want to help themselves. We have gone into several countries and removed government heads why is Al-Assad any different, oh oh I know this one Putin! In Colorado when you have two bull elk and a heard of cows sooner or later those two bull elk have to lock horns. I'm a cold war vet and there is a reason we had a "cold war." We are headed toward another one only this time there may be three bull's in the mix. USA, Russia, and now China. We have been the feared top dog for a long time and our reputation preceded us after Japan. But if you have been a poor butt sniffer country for decades sooner or later you get tired of taking shit! Our interest in Syria isn't for its people it is a strategic issue just like in the game Risk. The middle East has been at war within itself for thousands of years and if we didn't need petro dollar control what use would we have for country on that continent other than Israel? From a biblical standpoint Damascus has fallen and the next event is soon to occur. When all hell breaks loose I would rather have all our soldiers here on the home front, because it's hard to defend the fort if there is no one in the fort.

President Trump has turned into a politician, he listens to his political advisers instead of the Generals & Defense Secretary. Same thing President Obama did, we will have to go back again to fix it. What deal did he make to give up the Kurds to Turkey? No one will ever trust us again, afraid that we will stab them in the back like the Kurds

10 year Navy vet here. I personally think we need to bring our troops home from Syria, and Afghanistan. Tired of seeing my brothers in arms getting killed over this stupid war. What we originally went in for is done and over with. Let them fight their own war. We have enough technology to see what they are doing anyways without being their in person.
