Former Defense Secretary James Mattis told NBC News that the presidents decision to pull troops from Syrias border in advance of a Turkish incursion could have dire consequences and lead to ISISs resurgence.
Said Mattis: We may want a war over; we may even declare it over. You can pull your troops out as President Obama learned the hard way out of Iraq, but the enemy gets the vote, we say in the military. And in this case, if we dont keep the pressure on, then ISIS will resurge. Its absolutely a given that they will come back.

ISIS was created by our Iraqi Prison Failures,and they have one enemy and that is us. We created the new Hatred much like Turkey created their mortal enemy the Armenian Peoples.
