U.S. troops killed in Syria suicide attack claimed by ISIS

U.S. troops killed in Syria suicide attack claimed by ISIS

U.S. troops were among those killed Wednesday in an attack in northern Syria, the U.S. military has confirmed to CBS News. The U.S.-led coalition in Syria, Operation Inherent Resolve, confirmed in a tweet that, "U.S. service members were killed during an explosion while conducting a routine patrol in Syria today."  

A U.S. military official confirmed separately to CBS News senior national defense correspondent David Martin reports by Kurdish media outlets that at least two Americans were among the dead in the city of Manbij, not far from the Turkish border, after an explosion hit a coalition convoy.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

"We have won against ISIS. We’ve beaten them, and we’ve beaten them badly,"

U.S. troops are "all coming back from Syria and they’re all coming back now"


Donald Trump. December 19, 2018



"We are bringing our troops home. The caliphate has crumbled and ISIS has been defeated"

Mike Pence, in an address to ambassadors, this morning. Today.

I don't get it.
Denial of reality?
Can Pence not appreciate that what he is saying is utter crap, and obvious utter crap?

The President's impulsive decision to declare victory over ISIS was a monumental blunder.
Politics aside, it is what it is.
