Trump has a phone call with turkey, decides now is a good time to remove troops from syria so the turks can slaughter some Kurds.
Doesnt tell anyone till he tweets. Chaos and the GOP panic.
Decides 1900 troops are going to go to the sauds to protect them. Which makes sense because he wanted to get out of pointless wars?
Then we find out the Syrian troops are going to iraq, but iraq says they cant stay now. Only transit. So that was smart.
Now we learn he is gonna maybe put 200 troops back into syria to create a buffer or something? Maybe he wants to go after isil again since he let them all go for funsies.
All this master chess moves and we havent even touched impeachment and how much this week sucked for trump in that regard.
How many American soldiers died during that? Do you think it’s mililitarily a good strategy to keep your adversaries guessing and confused about your intentions? Or is it better to stick to the same script as always and to let them know exactly what you are going to do?
I would appreciate your military genius advice here.
Supposedly Trump is announcing the lifting of sanctions on Turkey as I type (11.44 pm Perth time). Another truly appalling media announcement from Trump.
Doesn’t give a stuff about the loss of life as a direct consequence of his action.
