1. It's a war of ideologies and it must be ruthless& bloody, no

other way to go about that.
But for a victory to be achieved one must unequivocally NAME the enemy!
The enemy is not Iraq/Iran/ISIS, the enemy is ISLAM!
2. It's Islam stupid, not pitting one ethnic group against

another
3. Most definitely time to step away from Syria
Cameron   (03.21.19)
The Koran robots of IS are broken & terminated.

Let us depart that Arab wreck.
4. ISIS like Al-Queda never existed.

5. politically motivated to "get" president trump
david ,   new york   (03.21.19)
clearly Islamic crazies are going to be a problem for a long time. president trump understands the threat of islam better than almost anyone (barak Obama couldn't even mention the words"islamic terrorism" and viewed America as the root of the problem. his fight against ISIS was half hearted and was failing until president trump attacked them aggressively)

the question is, do we stay in a place when we no longer have a clear reason to be there?
does that just make us a target and a sitting duck?
would it make more sense to keep your powder dry for when you really need to go somewhere an fight?
these a valid questions and I respect his decision.
6. Ousting islamic state, i.s..
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn holland   (03.24.19)
As long as "islam" will exist, there is a threat and danger that i.s. goes on/continues, openly or illegaly. The criminal "islam" following can join al queida or i.s. (almost 2 billion), for example.
