The United States even after all this time still has military forces in Syria. They have been illegally occupying Syrian land and stealing their oil resources for quite awhile now. They were reportedly attacked a little over a week ago. As a result of this, the US responded with airstrikes.
The statements coming from the US Department of Defense are filled with nonsense. They say they don’t seek conflict yet are illegally occupying a country and stealing their oil. If they didn’t seek conflict, they would not be doing this.

#Syria: The #UnitedStates has released footage of an airstrike against #Iran-backed militia positions in Deir Ez-Zor. Iran-backed militias recently targeted a US position in DeZ with a rocket attack, with this strike taking place in response to the attack.

Here’s some commentary on social media describing the absurdity of this situation.
The US just bombed Shia fighters in Syria from Liwa Fatemiyoun, who have been battling the remnants of ISIS, al-Qaeda, and other Western-backed extremists.

Biden orders airstrikes on Syria today… Why? Is WW3 not starting fast enough for him?

US claims to be in Syria to fight ISIS, but it rarely fights ISIS. It's actually there to deny Syria its own oil and wheat, and to occasionally attack Syrians and their allies who defeated US-backed sectarian death squads in the dirty war. https://t.co/soXbLXI1Iv https://t.co/4c38Geiwkp

Stop occupying Syria.
Stop bombing Syria.— Justin Amash (@justinamash) August 25, 2022
The US illegally occupies Syria, bombs it, steals its oil and wheat, murders its people, and accuses Russia of aggression. The audacity of these people.

The ZOG regime would be much better off if they voluntarily left Syria on their own accord. They don’t seem to be interested in doing that though. Most likely they will be forced out in a debacle that will be at least as embarrassing as what happened in Afghanistan. They just don’t know when to quit.
