The U.S. military presence in Syria is illegal and I wish it would end immediately. The wars in the Middle East have killed hundreds of thousands of people, most of them innocent, and caused many more people to suffer grievous injuries, mental anguish and destroyed lives. It has also cost this country trillions of dollars that have added to our national debt and could have been better spent helping our own country and people. Sadly, very few of our national leader will even acknowledge these truths, much less reverse these horrific policies.

The last thing we need is more military conflict in Syria.
