But U.S. military leaders apparently prefer to remain in the region long enough to destroy ISIS. These mixed signals from the administration complicate efforts to shape overall U.S. strategy in Syria. Furthermore, the Turkish incursion into Northern Syria has prompted the Syrian Democratic Forces, a U.S. partner on the ground, withdraw from the fight against ISIS. And withdrawal of U.S. troops would likely have a negative effect on post-conflict stabilization efforts in Syria.</P>
