The United States’ abrupt withdrawal from northeastern Syria is forcing the Pentagon to accept a dangerous reality — the rebirth of an Islamic State sanctuary that could allow terrorists to launch attacks on the West.

The U.S. military won’t be able do much more than monitor and try to contain ISIS activity in parts of Syria without special operations forces on the ground, according to current and former military officials. And although the Defense Department is considering backup options including a drone campaign and occasional commando raids, the pullout of the troops who had been living in the country alongside Syrian Kurdish forces will make it difficult to track the group or find targets to attack.

We pull 50 special ops personnel from Northeast Syria and the Pentagon's stumped.  This is good to know.  Obviously, the  U.S. forces and bases in Afghanistan, Iraq, No. Israel, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman and Djibouti are useless so let's bring them home.
