Is it another flip-flop?
The longest war in history is continuing, previously GOP-Adelson wing leadership had suggested that Afghan troops will be withdrawn by 2020 election season:

The Department of the Army announced deployments for three brigades rotating this fall to Afghanistan, South Korea and Europe.

The 2nd Infantry Brigade, from 10th Mountain Division out of Fort Drum, New York, will deploy approximately 1,600 personnel to Afghanistan this autumn to support the U.S. commitment to Operation Freedom Sentinel.

Your threads are trash.

They will all be gone next spring, the Pentagon just told that to Congress.
Until then there will continue to be troop rotations and the trolls will continue to misrepresent them.

That's a nice piece of old news about what was not set yet.
But I know you read my threads and know better, you are just a liar.



With the Pentagon expected to reduce troops levels in Afghanistan down to 4,500 by the November elections, and with the still negotiated US-Taliban peace deal facilitating this, on Tuesday a Pentagon official told Congress it can expect American presence there to be completely ended by May 2021.

US sends mechanized troops back into Syria

September 18, 2020

Bradley fighting vehicles have headed back into eastern Syria, the Pentagon announced Friday, a move that comes after a tense encounter with Russian forces left four U.S. troops lightly injured last month.

The return of mechanized units also comes as the U.S. military deployed Sentinel radar and increased the frequency of fighter jet patrols over U.S. forces in that part of Syria, according to U.S. Central Command spokesman Navy Capt. Bill Urban.

“These actions are a clear demonstration of U.S. resolve to defend Coalition forces in the [Eastern Syria Security Area], and to ensure that they are able to continue their Defeat-ISIS mission without interference,” Urban said in an emailed statement. “The Defense Department has previously deployed Bradleys to northeast Syria pursuant to these goals."

The few troops that went to Syria are far less than those being withdrawn from Iraq and Afghanistan and won't be able to stay once Trump pulls us out of Iraq completely.

And don't think t isn't obvious that you lost the argument so you changed the subject.
