      It’s because the neocons want to use this as casus belli for striking Iran, and illegal US bases in Syria are valid targets according to international law, whereas the bases in Jordan aren’t illegal

      They are wanting to use the phrase “The King of Jordan invited us” and the other phrase if they are caught is “but but the Kurds and ISIS!”.

      They totally bank on collective amensia and ignorance.

      The “well this wouldn’t have happened under Trump” MAGA crowd half forgot Trump refused to remove the troops from Syria and directly said we were there for the oil. Nearly all of the MAGA crowd wants us to militarize the southern border and start stacking other dead brown people over there.
