They're not predictions when they're made after the fact.
What does your hindsight say about the impending abandonment of Syria? |

My hindsight says good - get out. ISIS is hit pretty hard. Whack-A-Mole if you have to. But it is a terrible mess - how do we support the Kurds that helped us with ISIS defend themselves against our ally Turkey? By sending the French to position themselves between the Turks and Kurds? Or will it be the Russ/Syrians against the Turks against the French against the US/Kurds. Ohhh and then their is the FSA - where do they fit? The Iranians are getting bombed by the Israeils.
The biggest issue is contact with US v RUS v Turk forces around the Euphrates. The Russians sent a group of RU Mercs / Syrians to attack US forces/Kurds in February. US forces kept asking the RUS on the deconfliction line if they were their guys and the RUS said no. US forces threw everything at them, killing by some reports several hundred Russian Mercenaries. |
