Maybe they need to leave.

No foreign entanglements.

Why are Americans in Syria? Is it about the Qatar-Turkey pipeline versus the Iranian pipeline? Is it all about what AIPAC wants? Why did the State Department and the Pentagon arm ISIS in southern Syria (Operation Timber Sycamore) or fake the gas attacks? Russia protects the Christian population by saturation bombing jihadists, so there's no reason to stick around.

Why are Americans in Iraq? Democracy won't stick, and even if it did, through majoritarianism in a place rife with sectarian violence, you're bound to get a civil war and or a military dictatorship. (See how 'democracy' has turned out in South American and in Africa.)

No foreign entanglements. If the military industrial complex just wants a payday and statists just want to continue expanding the powers of the executive branch, identify Communist-occupied China for the threat it is, and begin prepping for war. (It won't be pre-emptive per Bush Doctrine, Perle, Wolfowitz, granted the CCP made and accelerated the spread of a biological weapon, albeit a nerfed one. It's retaliatory against a genocidal terror state, and a great opportunity to test out America's suborbital kinetic weapons as well as give Space Force an opportunity to turn the Forbidden City into Fallout Town.)
