Reply to comment by procrastinatorsuprem in Kusterand and Pappas vote to keep troops in Syria despite no authorization to have them there. Why? by klem18
It's much different. There isn't much of a threat there. The only reason USA troops were sent there in the first place is because Russia was backing Assad.
