re: How you know Trump is making the right decision withdrawing troops from Syria

President Donald Trump said the US would begin withdrawing its troops from Syria. When commanders and allies expressed concern about the fate of the Kurds, he vowed to "devastate Turkey economically" if it attacked them and proposed a "20-mile safe zone" along the border.

Mr Trump later suspended the withdrawal, but Turkish President Recep Erdogan continued pressing for a safe zone.

In August, the US and Turkey agreed to establish one together. Kurdish officials expressed support and the YPG(Kurds) dismantled border fortifications.

Recently Turkey requested permission from Trump to be allowed to bring troops into the safe zone to take responsibility for captured IS militants there. The SDF(Kurds) is holding 12,000 men suspected of being IS members, and 70,000 women and children, many of them related to IS fighters.

Turkish leaders want a 32km (20-mile) deep "safe zone" along the Syrian side of the border clear of Kurdish fighters. They also hope to resettle up to 2 million Syrian refugees currently living in Turkey there.

Certain factions of the Kurdish forces within specifically the PKK (The banned Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which has fought for Kurdish autonomy in Turkey for three decades, later changing it to a demand for equal rights and Kurdish autonomy in Turkey)are rebelling against the decisions made by their leaders.
