Blogger and theorist Mike Cernovich claims Trump's security advisor General H.R. McMaster was planning on sending as many as 150,000 to the region in his latest effort to stamp out the threat from ISIS. <\/p>\n
But two sources within the White House reportedly told Eli Lake, a commentator for Bloomberg, the real number will be anywhere between 10,000 and 50,000. <\/p>\n
Lake claims that Gen. McMaster has been pressing the US President to take decisive action and invade Syria in a massive show of force to both ISIS and Russia. <\/p>\n

He claims there are plans being discussed for a possible partnership with Kurdish freedom fighters in Syria who are battling to destroy the death-cult once and for all. <\/p>\n
Jack Keane, a retired four-star Army general who is close to McMaster, believes a ground war is the only way to defeat ISIS. <\/p>\n
\"The president wants to defeat ISIS, he wants to win, what he needs is a U.S.-led conventional coalition ground force that can take Raqqa and clean out the Euphrates River Valley of ISIS all the way to the Iraq border,\" he said. <\/p>\n

\"Handwringing about U.S. ground troops in Syria was a fetish of the Obama administration. It's time to look honestly at a winning military strategy.\" <\/p>\n
The news comes with international tensions at an all-time high. <\/p>\n
This week Trump launched a massive airstrike on a Syrian airbase in response to a deadly chemical weapons strike believed to have been carried out by the country's president Bashar al-Assad. <\/p>\n

The airstrike enraged the international community with Russian leader Vladimir Putin calling on the UN to investigatethe president's actions. <\/p>\n
Trump also launched a deadly airstrike on a massive group of ISIS fighters in Afghanistan on Friday. <\/p>\n
The strike used the \"Mother of all Bombs\", the most powerful non-nuke in the world, and killed over 36 militants in an apparent show of force. <\/p>\n

The US has fired dozens of cruise missiles at Syria in revenge for a chemical weapons attack despite a warning from Russia not to get involved. <\/p>\n

In a shocking warning, Lake said: \"It is now up to Trump to risk starting World War III in Syria by sending some 50,000 'boots on the ground' to start with. <\/p>\n
\"This number will only grow in direct proportion with the casualties that emerge as this proxy world war enters its final, most destructive phase.\" <\/p>\n
Trumps troops have already been carrying out massive exercises near the DMZ in Korea as fears of a war in the east are also growing. <\/p>\n
