Trump Sends the Marines to Syria

by | Mar 8, 2017

Haven’t I told you for the last year or more he was going to send the Marines to eastern Syria? I admit I thought he’s send ’em to Mosul first, but I guess the special ops guys have got that handled — for now.

Well now he’s sent Marine artillery and infantry too.

Now they’re between our Kurdish Peshmerga allies, our YPG allies, our Turkish allies and our Iraqi Shi’ite militia allies. So, yeah, expect more problems.
