Syria has repeatedly told us to get our unauthorized military personnel out of their country.

Of course, if somebody were to try to do anything about these troops, why we'd have to bomb them.

I think I can.

A corporation named Genie Energy found oil resources they could tap in the Golan Heights. They announced this on April 2013:

The Golan Heights is Syrian Land under (illegal) occupation by Israel. Obama warned Assad "not to use chemical weapons" on December 3, 2012 (earliest I can find)

Supposedly, Assad inexplicably and stupidly used chemical weapon in Ghouta on August 2013:

It seems likely that Genie struck a deal with the Obama administration to create a false flag to provide an excuse to bomb Syria to provide cover for Genie Energy to extract the resources.

Here is who is on the "Strategic Advisory Board" of Genie Energy - see if you can recognize any criminals, I mean, people there:

The US is in Syria PARTIALLY (because war has many reasons, it's not simplistic) to steal oil. Now that Russia is no longer supplying energy, there's another source and a bunch of criminal scum in our government is going to make a shitload of money off from it. I guarantee the shitbags of our society are doing cartwheels over the Ukrainian war since that's shutting down the Nordsream I.

Sure, Europeans are going to freeze to death in poverty, but... PROFIT!!!

So how do we LEGALLY have troops in Syria? Who the fuck cares about legality? There's money to be made, by our criminal syndicate. None of this shit would happen if we didn't have a Federal Reserve that has unlimited money to loan. They don't have to worry about losing money, they can always print more, and they do.

Imperialists don't need the law, they have force.

Oh to be a fly on the wall during a board meeting. Quite the cast of characters. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, Syria really isn't needed for "First World Weapons Testing and Stock Replacement" anymore. We have Ukraine now. Once Iraq shut down completely and Trump started no new wars, the Military Industrial Complex was shitting bricks for profits. The idiotic F-35 Trash Can kept things going for a while, but Biden/Zelensky came to the rescue with Ukraine.
