Agree. There were 100 troops there in support roles? Where’s their “Force Protection.” They were sitting ducks. Now, if Trump sent in another battalion of Soldiers or Marines to support the Kurds, those bitches Pelosi, Schumer and Hoyer would have raised the roof. Hypocrites.
I was in The Persian Gulf War (Ops: Desert Shield - Desert Storm). We had a clear UN Mandate and with 31 other Nations. We got in, did the job, and got the fuck out. That’s how is supposed to happen.
Further, I remember a quote by the US Marine Captain and former SecNav for President Reagan, Jim Webb, from 1983 (?) when was 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, Cherry Point, NC. Webb said, as I best remember: “These people have been in a six-sided fight for the last six thousand years; why would we want to insert ourselves in the middle of their fights?”
