Bolton’s Hawkish Syria Plan Backfired, Pushing Trump to Get Out

Summary:
The national security adviser expanded U.S. goals in Syria to challenge Iran. But Trump wasn’t on board, senior officials say, and Turkey took an opportunity to push the U.S. out. I noticed a lot of anti Putin and anti Russia videos this morning, much more than usual. I think this is because Trump says he's going to pull US troops out of Syria.  A fateful decision by National Security Adviser John Bolton to expand the United States’ goals in Syria backfired, and is a key reason why President Donald Trump ordered a total withdrawal of U.S. troops, two senior administration officials told The Daily Beast. https://www.thedailybeast.com/boltons-hawkish-syria-plan-backfired-pushing-trump-to-get-out
