Quote:The news of Gen Mattis' departure comes a day after Mr Trump announced all US troops would be withdrawn from Syria.
In his resignation letter, Gen Mattis described his views on "treating allies with respect" and using "all the tools of American power to provide for the common defence".
"Because you have the right to have a Secretary of Defence whose views are better aligned with yours on these and other subjects, I believe it is right for me to step down," Gen Mattis wrote.
Translation: 'I can no longer, in good conscience, work for a dangerous lunatic.'
