The target is ISIS, but there are multiple groups in Syria fighting Assad or ISIS or each other, then there is Assad and the Syrian troops, and then of course the Russians. But of course Trump has a secret plan and "knows better than the generals".
Obama was handling this properly. We were bombing them from a distance, no harm to our troops, while training the Iraqis to handle this themselves. This was a win win strategy that was working.
