New US policy in Syria is to no longer pull out by year’s end – envoy
2018-09-13
[AlMasdar] The newly appointed U.S. special envoy for Syria, James Jeffrey, announced on Friday that his nation will not be pulling their forces from Syria this year.

"The new policy is we’re no longer pulling out by the end of the year," Jeffery announced.

Jeffery said that the U.S. is no longer in a hurry to withdraw their forces from Syria, despite the fact President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
told a crowd of supporters five months that he wanted to pull all forces from the country.

This announcement by Jeffery reveals what most observers have speculated for several months in regards to the U.S.’ current policy in Syria.

With the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) nearly defeated, the U.S. is now shifting their attention to the Iranian presence inside the country.
