That is pure BS Generals dragging their feet That is probably disinformation to cover the real withdrawal actions.
Withdrawals can be very dangerous. When the British withdrew from Afghanistan, their entire force of 26,000 men was slaughtered on the way out. Only three (!!!) survivors made it back.
The Russians had a much better plan for getting out of there.
We are going to get out of Syria (and Afghanistan). Accurate details and timetables of our Military operations should not be provide to the media.

4,500 troops, 12,000 camp followers. They were shadowed by Afghans with superior firepower, in the form of a longer-ranged rifle. In no shape or form can it be said that any of the other parties in the Syrian imbroglio has superior firepower. The British force ran out of supplies. Thanks to the miracle of air dominance, air strikes, air drops and air lifts, US forces will run out of supplies when the Democrats decide to let an American expeditionary force be slaughtered, and fail to appropriate the funds necessary for them to obtain the supplies needed to feed and defend themselves, i.e. never, if Democrats want to stay in office.
