"It’s #Putin’s Sandbox Now, And That’s A Great Thing" Putin certainly thinks so. Iran thinks so, Hezbollah thinks so, and you think so, comrade. Iran will also benefit. The tiny US presence in northern Syria, and the aerial surveillance that came with it, acted as a block to one of Tehran's most useful acquisitions in past years -- an almost clear run of friendly territory from its borders to its allies in Lebanon. That gap will now fill with Iranian backed militia, friendly Syrian regime forces, and Russian mercenaries. This outcome may not have occurred to Trump in his late-night chat with Erdogan, but it may be the longer term consequence of his decision. cnn.com
