Page 10 The Skanner January 24, 2018 News Trump cont’d from pg 9 thority to call airstrikes and operations focused on killing more militants rather than allowing their escape, according to Defense Secretary Jim Mattis. The biggest victory was retaking the Iraqi city of Mosul, launched under Obama.

Since then, they and Syrian forces have been pushing IS out of most of its remaining territory. In dealing with Syria’s civil war, Trump made it clear his fight was not against President Bashar Assad, who has presid- ed over killings on a massive scale in order to retain power. Trump has largely continued Obama’s mostly hands- off policy, effectively al- lowing Russia to take the reins militarily and po- litically, along with Iran, both Assad allies. Trump halted a covert CIA program to arm and train moderate rebels fighting Assad. The U.S. has not played any role in the political effort to end the war and is con- spicuously absent from U.N.-led talks. Russia has taken the lead, bro- kering agreements with SUB-BIDS/SUPPLIER QUOTES REQUESTED NHA Campus Redevelopment 2316 SE Willard St. Milwaukie, OR 97222 Bids Due: Feb. 8, 2018 @ 2pm O’Neill/Walsh Community Builders is requesting bids for ALL SCOPES based on Bid Set drawings (dated 1/8/18) and specifications (dated 1/8/18) for the NHA Campus Redevelopment Project.

Turkey and Iran and spearheading a separate political track that has led to four de-escalation zones meant in theory to reduce violence. In April, the U.S. struck a Syrian air base after a chemical weapons attack that killed doz- ens of civilians that the U.S. blamed on Assad. It marked the first deliber- ate U.S. military action against Assad’s forces, but it was not followed up by any other action and was largely seen as muscle flexing rather than part of a coherent policy. The Trump adminis- tration has not spelled out post-IS policies for Iraq and Syria. It said it won’t finance a program to rebuild the destruc- tion from the Iraq war. It also hasn’t made clear how it sees the future of those parts of eastern and northern Syria held by the Kurds. Turkish President Re- cep Tayyip Erdogan has denounced U.S. plans to form a 30,000-member Kurdish-led border secu- rity force in Syria, vow- ing to “drown this terror force before it is born.” ISRAEL-PALESTIN- IANS Trump promised to pursue “the ultimate deal” — an agreement to end the Israeli-Palestin- ian conflict. A year later, he has made little head- way and his hoped-for peace push appears to be in tatters. In December, he up- ended decades of policy by recognizing Jerusa- lem as Israel’s capital. The move, seen as siding with Israel, set off weeks of unrest and prompted the Palestinians to de- clare Trump unfit to me- diate peace. Trump earlier dis- tanced himself from the two-state solution fa- vored by the global com- munity, saying he would support it only if both sides agreed, effectively giving Israel veto power.
