Rolling 200 Marines backed with Howitzers into northern Syria, the Trump administration is ditching its predecessor’s style of working quietly behind the scenes in Syria’s conflict, opting instead for dramatic displays of U.S. force in an attempt to shape the fight. The latest deployment significantly widens America’s footprint in a highly toxic battlefield and risks drawing troops into a long and costly war with unpredictable outcome.
