The president seems remarkably able to reverse course on any policy position — even the Middle East VIDEO
President Donald Trump may have and with his missile attack on Syria last week, but that doesn’ t mean he won’ t shock us even further by how far he is willing to go with a country with which he once insisted he would never militarily engage. National Security Adviser General H. R. McMaster is pushing for President Trump to significantly increase the number of ground troops in Syria, . The current draft of a war plan would only maintain a modest level of American ground troops in Syria, which McMaster — as a veteran of the successful surge led by General David Petraeus during the second Iraq War — believes will increase America’s chances of achieving a permanent victory in the country. Many military brass believe that Obama’s withdrawal of American troops in 2011 was responsible for the subsequent deterioration in that country, Bloomberg noted, as well as the rise of ISIS.
