US forces are under regular attacks by militants at base near Syrian government airfield

U.S. forces are fighting Iranian-backed proxies in Syria frequently as they come under militant attacks that analysts say have been aided by the Syrian government. Dozens of those rocket, missile and drone attacks have focused on a strategic American base at a gas field in northeastern Syria near the Iraq border, a de facto territorial dividing point between forces backed by Iran and the U.S.-led coalition to defeat the Islamic State group.

Mission Support Site Conoco has been attacked about 40 times since October 2023, U.S. Central Command said in a statement this month.

The USA is in Syria illegally. They are an invading army. Bring our warriors in Syria home now.

agreed.

No need to protect oil over there, when there's tons of it here. Drill here at home.

Why do you think our troops are there illegally?

Why do you think our troops are there illegally?

Syria is a sovereign nation. Unless my memory is off, we weren't invited in, but when the orchestrated Arab spring didn't work out in the globalists favor in Syria, some of our troops were sent there.

It would be like a foreign military planting themselves in the middle of the USA somewhere without any invitation from the USA.

We were invited into Iraq, but since then we've been asked to leave by the Iraqi govmint more than once. The moral to that story is don't invite the US Military in unless you're willing to have their presence indefinitely.

That's my recollection of the way things went down. I remember talking to Hugh, (paidinfull) at that time, and he nailed it. He said it was a globalist move, he mentioned some financial group (black rock?- can't remember the particulars) that wanted to have a finger in the pie over there and it's been a bit of a mess ever since. At first they helped the Kurds, then they turned their backs on the Kurds.

The area in question is Kurdish. The Kurds are ancient Medes and they show up for the final destruction of Babylon (foggy day, can't remember the scripture reference) so there are some prophetic implications in preserving the Kurds for their end time role. They are under attack from the Syrians and the Turks (and I think Iraq doesn't love them either).
