Amash criticizes Trump for treating U.S. troops like 'paid mercenaries'

Read full article: Amash criticizes Trump for treating U.S. troops like 'paid mercenaries'

There are people who support the president, who believe things he says, but its pretty clear hes not bringing home the troops. "Hes moving troops back into Iraq, he's moving other troops into Saudi Arabia and using our forces almost as mercenaries, paid mercenaries who are going to come in, as long as Saudi Arabia pays us some money, it's good to go," he added. Amash's comments come after Defense Secretary Mark Esper told reporters the troops departing northern Syria would head to Iraq to help fight against ISIS and as Trump tweeted that he was "bringing soldiers home." Other U.S. troops are heading to Saudi Arabia, Trump said last week, to help defend the country after a September attack on an oil facility. Earlier this month, the White House announced that it would move forces from the "immediate area" as Turkey began a "long-planned operation into Northern Syria."

Syria situation: 4 things you should know

Read full article: Syria situation: 4 things you should know

Burak Kara/Getty Images(CNN) - The situation in Syria has been rapidly deteriorating. Last week, the Trump administration ordered US troops to step aside from the border in northern Syria, effectively paving the way for Turkey to launch an offensive against US-backed Kurdish forces who they regard as enemies. Turkey's advance, and America's departure, led the abandoned Syrian Kurds to enter into a deal with the Syrian government, in a major shift. Before the Syrian civil war started more than eight years ago, the Syrian Kurds had an accommodation with the regime in Damascus. Turkey will have to fight or come to an agreement with the Russia-backed Syrian regime, whose forces are on a collision course.

Who are the Kurds and why are they under attack?

Read full article: Who are the Kurds and why are they under attack?

Living in a region controlled by the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG), a defense force mostly made up of Kurds, the frequently targeted group is once again under attack. The Kurds are an ethnic minority group that mostly occupy a mountainous region straddling the borders of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Syria and Armenia. Syrian Kurds feared Turkey would use the withdrawal as an opportunity to launch an assault. This move leaves Syrian Kurds at the mercy of an operation aimed to clear them out and away from the Turkish border. As many Syrian Kurds prepare to fight and others run in the opposite direction, thousands of terrorists and two holding facilities containing displaced ISIS members and ISIS survivors will be left ungoverned.

Read full article: US offers $5 million rewards for info on deadly Niger ambush attackers

The State Department's Rewards for Justice program said Friday that it was offering two $5 million rewards, one for Adnan Abu Walid al-Sahrawi, a leader of ISIS-GS who claimed responsibility for the ambush in January 2018. Two Americans and eight Nigeriens were also wounded in the encounter which sparked a Pentagon investigation which found multiple failures at various levels within the US military. "We assess ISIS in the Greater Sahara probably has at least 150 fighters. "As seen in public reporting, ISIS in the Greater Sahara has steadily increased attacks southward in Niger and in eastern Burkina Faso," she added. But the group "probably lacks external support from ISIS core, and its ties to other ISIS branches probably are minimal," she said.

Joe Raedle/Getty ImagesWASHINGTON, D.C. - President Donald Trump Wednesday appeared to rule out sending the thousands of ISIS foreign fighters currently being detained by US allies in Syria to the detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, saying that the ISIS detainees should be repatriated to their countries of origin. Trump's statement represents a shift from comments he made previously after he signed an executive memorandum which raised the prospect of sending ISIS fighters there. And in many cases for them it will now be Guantanamo Bay," Trump said at his State of the Union address in January. Also Wednesday, Trump repeated a threat to "release" ISIS fighters back to their country of origin. The US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces are currently holding more than 2,000 foreign ISIS fighters from over 50 countries in makeshift detention facilities in addition to some 8,000 Syrian and Iraqi prisoners.

Read full article: FBI sees rise in white supremacist domestic terrorism in recent months

Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images(CNN) - The FBI has seen a significant rise in the number of white supremacist domestic terrorism cases in recent months, a senior FBI counterterrorism official said Thursday. The domestic terror cases generally include suspects involved in violence related to anti-government views, racial or religious bias, environmental extremism and abortion-related views. The FBI wouldn't provide specific numbers to quantify the increase of in the number of white supremacist domestic terrorism cases.
