Should the U.S. be leaving Syria right now?

Right choice or wrong choice? Would your answer be different if it weren't Trump making the decision?

My personal opinion the United States should pull out of every foreign country and let these countries handle there own problems we have enough issues of our own without trying to police the entire damn planet of these other countries want to kill each other so be it

@ExperienceDLT Abandoning the world stage wont make it easier to solve our problems, it will exacerbate them. I don’t think you understand just how much we benefit from being the biggest gorilla in the jungle. We didn’t become the global guarantor of world order just for shits and giggles, or out of some nonexistent sense of altruism. Helping other people for nothing is utterly absent from American DNA.

At this stage of our development we literally can’t afford isolationism. But it’s important to pick your battles.
