General Joe Dunford, 4-star Marine General and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is the highest ranking military officer in the country. He was not invited to the meeting where Trump decided to pull out of Syria.
The highest ranking military general in the United States found out that we are pulling out of Syria via Twitter.
He probably knows what he is doing more than you ever would.
Apparently, the decision had already been disseminated at the Pentagon by SecDef Mattis before Trump had announced. Mattis had previously made the statement about leaving Syria as Trump.
Arabs have taken on NE Syria as KSA and UAE have provided troops, and will contribute to reconstruction of Syria
There's little need to be in Syria. 2.5 million Kurds is not enough to build a viable independent state able to defend itself. The terrorists are confined in Idlib and US-controlled enclaves separated from the urban areas by desert now that the tunnel networks have been destroyed. The resolution of Idlib should be left to Syria, Russia, and Turkey. Eventually, the Iranians and most of the Russians will leave since they've rebuilt the Syrian military.

Trump knows better than the generals

Hmmm, sounds like some of the same dribble I've heard for 15 years. Remember "we will stand down when they stand up" - back in 2006 and 2008?
The Russians aren't going to leave Syria. It's a great win for them to have bases and planes/ships there.
ISIS and whatever name you want to give the Fundies...they will never be gone because they have the support of much of the population. We turned the entire ME into Mad Max and once Max is in charge there is not going to be any normalcy.
It's hard to imagine Israel is very happy about Assad now being the Spear Of Putin.

So? The military wanted JFK to do a first strike on Cuba.
You do realize the President IS the commander in chief?
Ahh personal anecdote. Nice for you. So you have no argument
You don't even have that. Just repetition from whatever your draft dodger "dear leader" says.
