Another conspiracy theory.
"abandoned". Should we burn it to the ground next time? Or should we stay there forever? Btw, this is not a conspiracy, but it is a blatant anti-Trump propaganda. They lost sight of what is actually important and just focus on how to reframe everything is a negative light.
Good. Somebody else can protect a desert.
USA should not be in Syria. Who has invited them there? Russia came to Syria to protect the country from USA’s grown ISIS and USA itself, to don’t let Syria be just another country destroyed by USA as Iraq and Libya. Thanks God, Trump also understands that and decided that USA should quit.
The Syrian Kurds, about 1/2 of the rest of Syria.
Our allies, the Kurds, invited us there, to combat ISIS. We have now betrayed them on a whim, and ISIS prisoners are being freed back into the wild. Our sudden withdrawal is akin to supporting ISIS
Russia has been in Syria long before the US and has been protected al-Assad. It’s about the oil pipeline through Syria to the Mediterranean to own the oil rights in Europe. US tried to get one from Qatar through Syria but Russia stopped that. China has put in $23 billion to help rebuild Syria. US has no hold on Syria.
Why should the US meddle in the politics of other countries?
May be u need to understand that the moment petro transactions start happening in non usd then you will realize why USA need to do what it’s doing.
The sooner, the better. The world does not need one global empire.
Damn the comments here are pretty surprising. So many conspiracy-minded people
"Any interpretation of the facts I don't agree with is a conspiracy theory. And the closer it is to the real thing the louder we need to accuse the conspiracy theorists."
That's exactly what THEY want you to think
The truth is Russia and Assad are much more effective at killing ISIS. This will bring stability into the region. We are just too humane.
OK since no one seems to know anything about the last 8 years in Syria, I'll fill you in: The civil war broke out in 2011 during the Arab spring when protests rocked all of MENA. The western narrative at the time was that the protesters were pushing for democracy and human rights - when in actuality there were a plurality of different groups there. The protests started breaking into war in the suburbs and large number of rebel groups started taking over Syrian land. The US has historically hated the Assad family because they've always refused to acquiesce to western demand (a la Gaddafi) so the Obama and Clinton led state department decided "it's regime change time" and started arming rebel groups. Unfortunately, without much vetting whether they were al qaeda affiliated or not. Jump forward a few years and ISIS (daesh) come out of Iraq and prove to be the strongest rebel group, they quickly gain control over large parts of Iraq and eastern Syria. Meanwhile, the US is trying to arm any group they can to fight ISIS: Al Nusra, FSA, and other rebels. Eventually there is a split between the Pentagon and CIA over who to back - the pentagon and armed forces begin to help the Kurdish defense forces in the north because they were the only ones with success against ISIS. Thousands of westerners from all over the world flock to Syrian Kurdistan to defend them from ISIS, and the US stations troops there. In Damascus in 2015, rebel groups were slowly closing in on Assad. It looked like it was all over for the SAA. Suddenly in fall 2015, Russia jumps into the war and bombs the fuck out of any rebels (many US backed and jihadist) in the south of Syria. The Syrian state and Kurdistani Rojava make a pact to push out ISIS in a two pronged pincer movement - the Kurdistan YPG from the north and the SAA from the south. They both make steady gains and push ISIS out. At this point the war only continues in Idlib province where there's a fight between Turkish backed rebels, Syrian Army (plus Russian troops), Kurdish YPG, and the Free Syrian Army. This continues into the present day until Trump pulls out of Kurdistan after a phone call with Erdogan. Immediately, Erdogan uses proxy Turkish rebels to attack Kurdish controlled territory. The Kurds are cornered so they make a deal with Putin and Assad. The deal is essentially Kurdish independence is over and the SDF is absorbed into the SAA. Thus over the past few days thousands of Syrian Arab units have rushed into Kurdish cities to defend them from ethnic cleansing and genocide. It sucks that we abandoned them to rejoin Assad... but it's better than certain death and destruction. Ultimately, Syria, Russia, and Iran are profiting from this more than anyone. The US loses military bases and proxy armies, the Kurds lose their autonomy, and the Turkish rebels will probably be crushed.
The US has had to bomb its own bases today to prevent arms and equipment from falling into militia hands, the US retreat is just that hasty and disorganized. This wasn't a planned operation but rather chaos from an ill thought through tweet so it's a mess.

Who cares. I'm still voting for Trump 👊 lower taxes is all I care about!
Long run the Trump deficit will raise your taxes by a lot. Gotta actually cut spending. No president since Clinton has actually done it but Trump's really expanded the Federal budget.
And you sold your soul to devil 👿 also.
