US withdrawal from Syria will endanger Kurds, Arabs, Christians
Trump’s unilateral decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria will embolden our adversaries, including Iran, Russia and Syrian leader Bashar al Assad, and weaken and betray our Kurdish and Arab partners in the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
A withdrawal would also endanger the civilian population living inside the safe haven that is now under SDF control — approximately 35 percent of the country and home to some 6 million people.
The inhabitants of this area are ethnically and religiously diverse, including Kurds, Arabs, Muslims and a Christian minority estimated to include some 100,000 people.
If President Trump moves forward with the withdrawal of troops, we need to use all our leverage to persuade Turkey to not launch another assault on Syria because it would potentially endanger both our partners in the SDF and the civilian population.

The evangelicals don't care. Those are the wrong colored Christians in Syria.
