«Breaking News» Trump softens Syria pullout schedule by giving the military four months

President Donald Trump has reportedly agreed to allow the Pentagon four months to withdraw the 2,000 U.S. military troops from Syria.

Trump had initially ordered the military to withdraw personnel within 30 days when he announced his abrupt Syria pullout last month.

White House officials told the New York Times on Monday that Trump had softened the pullout schedule and was now allowing troops four months. 

The President also appeared to water down his shock plans for the immediate pullout in a series of tweets on Monday as he defiantly claimed his achievements in the conflict should make him a 'national hero'.

President Donald Trump has reportedly agreed to allow the Pentagon four months to withdraw the 2,000 U.S. military troops from Syria 

The tweeted comment came the day after a senior Republican senator said Trump had promised to stay in Syria to finish the job of destroying the Islamic State group - days after he shocked allies, and his own military establishment, by saying troops were coming home.

'If anybody but Donald Trump did what I did in Syria, which was an ISIS loaded mess when I became President, they would be a national hero,' Trump tweeted, using another acronym for IS.

'ISIS is mostly gone, we're slowly sending our troops back home to be with their families, while at the same time fighting ISIS remnants,' he said.

About 2,000 US forces and other foreign troops are in Syria to assist local fighters battling IS, the jihadists who once controlled a 'caliphate' covering much of Iraq and Syria.

The US-led coalition launched its first raids against IS in September, 2014, more than two years before Trump won the US election. US-backed forces seized the jihadists' de facto capital of Raqa on October 17, 2017.

Trump announced his Syria pullout by saying 'We've won against ISIS,' even though thousands of the group's fighters are thought to remain in Syria after the collapse of their 'caliphate.' 

 

 

 

Military and security experts said Trump was overstating the case, and warned against a hasty withdrawal.

In Afghanistan, Trump also wants to bring home about half of the 14,000 soldiers locked in a war against Taliban guerrillas, but no formal announcement has been made on that move.

Trump's troop drawdowns triggered the resignation of his defense secretary, Jim Mattis, long one of the chaotic administration's steady hands.

On Sunday, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who had expressed concern about Trump's pullout, emerged from a two-hour lunch meeting with the president to say Trump 'understands the need to finish the job.'

'I think the president is committed to making sure when we leave Syria that ISIS is completely defeated,' Graham said.

Another prominent critic of the pullout was retired US army general Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of US and international forces in Afghanistan, who on Sunday warned on ABC's 'This Week' that a US pullout would likely cause 'greater instability' in the region.

'I campaigned on getting out of Syria and other places. Now when I start getting out the Fake News Media, or some failed Generals who were unable to do the job before I arrived, like to complain about me & my tactics, which are working,' Trump tweeted on Monday.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
