From TIME Magazine
Looks to me like Trump has not learned his lesson in calling victory early. He is celebrating early. Since I'm coming off the Super Bowl, let me put this in football terms.
You got the ball.
You have a hole you can ram a mack truck through.
You run the ball through that hole all the way to the end zone... while dropping the ball at the one yard line.
A defender takes your ball, while you're celebrating at touchdown (that wasn't), the defender is taking the ball to the other end of the field.
That defender has scored on your miscue.
The lesson here is don't celebrate to early. One wrong move, and you lose.
Just Saying.
W.J. Hennigan of TIME Magazine wrote:
Despite President Donald Trump’s assertions, ISIS is not defeated and could re-emerge without continued military engagement in Syria, according to candid assessments from the Pentagon and the State Department released this week.
The U.S. military said “absent sustained pressure,” the Sunni Muslim extremist group would re-emerge in Syria within six to 12 months, according to a new Department of Defense Inspector General report. At the same time, the State Department issued a statement that declared ISIS “remains a significant terrorist threat and collective action is imperative to address this shared international security challenge.”
The statements are at odds with Trump’s announcement Dec. 19 that all 2,000 U.S. troops currently stationed in Syria will come home because the four-year military battle against ISIS is over. “Our boys, our young women, our men, they’re all coming back and they’re coming back now. We won,” he said in a video posted on Twitter.
