take a listen. do you have plans to pull out of iraq as well? no plans at all. in fact, we could use this as a base if we wanted to do something in syria. i will say this. if you take isis and if we see something happening with isis that we don t like, we could hit them so fast and so hard. peter, you used to serve in iraq. what do you make of that? i think it s a misbegotten strategy. isis is not yet completely eradicated. what the president is saying is well, we could stay on this side of the iraq/syrian border and launch raids into syria if we need to. that will not keep isis under wraps. what would keep isis contained is having u.s. troops in syria, fighting with our kurdish allies, and the president has completely underd cut his own strategy in that regard. and that ship has clearly sailed, given the president s announcement last week and his reiteration, his defense, his
argument, that isis no longer poses a threat to the united states and have been completely eradica eradicated. that was the old argument. now he seems to be settling in this middle ground. and the fact that he did not meet with the prime minister of iraq is causing ripples. the president said troops will stay in iraq for the foreseeable future but it s unclear whether they ll be welcomed in iraq. hallie? hans nichols, thank you. peter mansour, military historian who served as executive officer to david petraeus in iraq. and former undersecretary of state for political affairs is joining us as well. colonel mansour, let me start with you. president trump was definitive on how he sees the role of troops in iraq as it relates to the drawdown of troops in syria.
terror. senator john mccain, former prisoner of war, says absolutely not. listen. i don t give a damn what the president of the united states wants to do or anybody else wants to do. we will not waterboard. we will not torture. my god, what does it say about america if we are going to inflict torture on people? well, i have great respect for senator mccain and what i can tell you is that going forward, as he outlined in that famous speech in ohio, that a president donald trump is going to focus on confronting and defeating radical islamic terrorism as a threat to this country and we are going to have a president again who will never say what we will never do. all right. with us to discuss this and also the issues of who may be the next secretary of defense, retired army colonel peter mansour and sean brimley.
