How does this change the government figures, flash bulb?
Which government figures? I asked you to show me the numbers on this alarming drop in troop levels you're referring to, and to demonstrate that it's due to failure to meet recruitment goals, but so far crickets are chirping. So show me the numbers.
Why argue about this when the much bigger crime was the US and it’s allies arming and supporting ISIS. That is a crime for which no one has yet paid a price for, though thousands died and were misplaced.

In 2012, probably in spring, Obama
reluctantly signed a top-secret
executive order, of which little is known other than that it authorized the CIA to provide “
non-lethal support” to the rebels in Syria. In concrete terms, then,
what the CIA did was to link up its Qatari and Saudi allies with a number of arms manufacturers in the Balkans (Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, etc.). With the
backing of NATO, which controls arms exports from the Balkans via
EUFOR, Qatari and Saudi secret services began buying up weapons and ammunition from these countries to illegally equip anti-Assad rebels.
A few months later,
in October 2012, the New York Times revealed that
this vast CIA-sponsored arms trafficking was mainly going to support jihadist groups in Syria, while arms exports by air
were growing, with weapons being injected into Syrian territory from “
operation rooms” in Turkey and Jordan, through
the FSA (“Free Syria Army”) and
local arms traffickers.
Finally, it turned out that these “operation rooms” were cobbled together by fifteen Western and Middle Eastern intelligence services, including
the DGSE(French foreign intelligence service) and
MI6, although the we do not yet know exactly what role these various agencies played in this secret war. What is clear — and what I demonstrate in my book with
irrefutable evidence —is that
tens of thousands of
tons of weapons and
millions of rounds of ammunition were brought into the Syrian theater of war by this operation. It is also proven that these armaments
mostly went to equip jihadist groups,
including the terrorist militia which proclaimed itself “Islamic State” in June 2014.
Ultimately, Donald Trump decided to phase out this operation in
early summer 2017. This was
a major setback for the CIA, as the US President was thereby conceding the defeat of the United States and its partners in the war against Syria and its Russian, Iranian and Lebanese allies.
