1. Different crisis, different continent, same conclusion.

2. So I guess they won't be returning to the base they had to BLOW UP??!

Man I just can’t believe all this Mickey Mouse horseshit emanating from LOSER45 and his Pentagon pals, W T F, it’s 100% insane

Also, do we need to so explicitly let our enemies know the extent and locations of our troops, dear Syrian Observatory?

Thanks for posting, Hunt, and welcome to DU!!

3. I hope they have been swept for Russian bugs and cameras. nt

4. More than likely, they're being used to "defend" the Russians that have our bases

Vlad: "All your bases are belong to us"

7. Bombs..booby traps...

I'm sure the yellow haired traitor has a plan...

5. OMFG. We blew up our bases. What are they going back to??

[Igel]

9. The Russian troops which, if you read some media sources,

immediately occupied the blown-up bases. Blown-up, but with fully intact, undamaged buildings in the background.

6. Well, at least our troops returned 'home' to Iraq for a few days.

Did Trump get back the base his pals, the Russians, took over?

8. The dumb ass doesn't know what he's doing. "Leave Syria." "Oh, never mind, go back to Syria...

we have to protect the oil. And wasn't it great how I captured the ISIS leader?"

Not really since your initial pullout order almost screwed up the raid.

11. It's almost as if everything he does is impulsive with little thought put toward an actual strategy

I have a hard time believing Trump puts much thought into anything, and will go with whatever the last person who spoke to him suggested (assuming they use the right words to suck him in) Given that I've seen people who are close to his administration essentially say just that, I think that our "dumb ass doesn't know what he's doing" assessments are accurate.

12. You're right. The last person to speak to him before the Syria pullout decision was none other...

then Erdowan, the person who would benefit most from the US troop pullout.

Erdowan probably mentioned what a nice hotel he had in Istanbul and what a shame it would be if something happened to it.

[Sapient Donkey]

10. Clearly this is more evidence of the Trump administration's genius and brilliant competency

We're just not mentally prepared to handle and understand it...or something.
