A U.S. administration official said the U.S. was “constantly evaluating our necessary posture in Syria to effectively combat ISIS (Islamic State) and (we) do not comment on locations or possible locations of (where) forces operate.”The official requested that the name and location of the base be removed for operational security reasons. Reuters has agreed to not reveal the exact location.
A sympathetic case for the America First Committee and their opposition to America’s entry into World War II comes from a surprising source. Pat Buchanan’s recent birthday leads me to speculate: how much better would we be today if he had been elected President in 1992 rather than George H.W. Bush?He would have avoided “Operation Desert Storm” against Iraq, with all its disastrous consequences for us ever since. He was wrong about tariffs, but, as Murray Rothbard always said, war is the most important issue, and Pat Buchanan was a strong non-interventionist. That’s why he supported Buchanan.
