Trump will end one war

It appears that Congress won't let the Forever War in Afghanistan end.
It appears that the Pentagon won't let the illegal War in Syria end.

But there's one war that even the warmongers are so "meh" about that Trump might actually end it - Somalia.

The US will pull out nearly all its estimated 700 troops in Somalia over the next few months, the latest in a series of short-notice withdrawals ordered by Donald Trump in his last few weeks in power.

A Pentagon statement on Friday said that some of the troops would be repositioned in neighbouring countries while others – it did not say how many – would leave the region altogether.

We've been fucking with Somalia for 15 years, causing tens of thousands of deaths.
In the last two years we've dropped more bombs on Somalia than Iraq.
