Those questions are important and require answers, but our domestic preoccupations are distracting us from other questions of equal import. The U.S. is at war in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere with ISIS, al Qaeda, and other Salafi-Jihadi groups. The Syrian al Qaeda affiliate has rebranded itself, but remains part of al Qaeda and pursues the same goals of establishing a global Caliphate. How will we ensure that we won’t have to fight son of ISIS or son of al Qaeda? The removal of these forces without any replacements would open the door to al Qaeda and ISIS expansion.
