ISIS attack in Syria kills four Americans. Just a few weeks after President Trump announced his plans to pull troops from Syria an attack happens. ISIS took responsibility for an attack in Syria which killed nineteen people including four Americans. The attack was targeted towards an American military convoy in the city of Manbij. The site was a restaurant that was known to have been frequented by US troops. The attack was by a suicide bomber who had explosives strapped to his chest. Many officials believe that this type of action will continue because of the lack of US troops in Syria. Trump did tweet before this attack saying he would be "hard if the group lashed out again". But with this attack it generates the debate again on wither or not pulling out all the troops from Syria is a smart idea from President Trump.
