What there seems to be plenty of doubt about is what U.S. personnel are even in Syria and where. The U.S. government hates talking about its military footprint throughout the Middle East. When three U.S. troops were killed in Jordan earlier this year, many Americans were surprised that there was even a base near the Syrian border. The U.S. government had never before officially acknowledged the base, nor the mission. Secrecy over American military deployments is out of control and prevents the American public from meaningfully participating in discussion of our foreign policy.
