Wednesday's attack on U.S. forces in Syria has stoked fresh criticism over President Donald Trump's claim that the so-called Islamic State has been defeated and has renewed debate over his decision to withdraw all troops from the war-torn country.
Around 1 p.m. local time, a suicide bomber blew himself up in a popular area of downtown Manbij, a northern Syrian city that's been controlled by U.S.-supported Kurdish militias since it was wrested from ISIS in 2016.
Four Americans were killed — two service members, a civilian Pentagon official and a U.S. contractor — and three more injured, U.S. Central Command confirmed in a statement, reportedly marking the largest single loss of American life since the counter-ISIS campaign began. Nineteen people are believed to have died in total, including civilians and local coalition partners, according to monitoring group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
ISIS quickly claimed responsibility.

Trump actually wanted troops out weeks ago.
It was Bolton and warmongers who delayed the retreat and put our troops on danger
Incompetent morons. Bolton should be fired onthe spot for this
Incompetent idiots. How could they possibly miss one suicide bomber?
because ISIS defeated
"only the best"
The OP and MSM using dead servicemen to dunk on Drumpf.![]()
your dumb is showing again.
They're ignoring the dead servicemen.
But you claiming I dunked on Trump is duly noted.
Didn’t Trump say Isis was defeated?
You missed the point from the start again.
You mean like how the GOP used the Benghazi soldiers to dump on Hillary?
ISIS probably made a special effort just now to kill as many Americans as possible (unforeseen side effect)
before Trash completes his Pootin-fellating withdrawal
Apparently, only equipment began to leave, but Americans were still there.
Thanks, dubya/ head/BigOil
Hillary was talking about that hateful youtube video, while standing by their coffins.
Cc, hater and Darrin circling the wagons.
He's commander in chief. Why wouldn't the buck stop with him?
"The media should leave the most powerful man in the nation alone."
Trump s on veterans constantly.
Trumps retreat is probably a sign of defeat. Insurgents are impossible to defeat. Unless you want to spend trillions in the next few years it makes sense for America to reatret and just allown for whatever happens. Happens.
Tbh
but also shame on them for not using this opportunity to bump the religion of peace thread instead
You are too ing stupid to even get the point to begin with. The restaurant that was blown up had been in an area occupied and controlled by ISIS two years ago. They were then militarily defeated and eliminated as a functional military force by coalition forces. Anyone that thinks we could stop a single suicide bomber with the US Army is too ing stupid to waste oxygen on.
