US CJCS uses alleged ISIS threat to justify US occupation of Syria

The #US has long employed the alleged "#ISIS threat" as a pretext to continue its illegal occupation of northeastern #Syrian territories.
en.mdn.tv/737u
It has done so for two reasons: to destabilize the Syrian government & to pursue the systematic looting of the country's oil resources.
en.mdn.tv/737u
Even after the February 6 earthquake devastated several cities across the country, the #US illegal ocupation forces continues to loot oil from occupied #Syrian territories.
en.mdn.tv/737u
Earlier in the day, #Syrian news agency SANA reported that #US illegal occupation forces have looted a new batch of oil from #Syria's al-Jazeera fields.
en.mdn.tv/737u
The convoy is on its way to reach #US military bases in Iraq via the illegal al-Mahmudiya crossing in the al-Yarubiya region.

According to civilian sources, the convoy is made of 23 vehicles and includes covered trucks and tanks filled with stolen oil.
en.mdn.tv/737u
The sources further added that an additional convoy made up of 34 trucks exited the illegal al-Walid crossing in al-Yarubiya.
en.mdn.tv/737u
The penultimate time #US illegal ocupation forces plundered #Syrian oil was on February 27th. The oil was looted from the same al-Jazeera fields and was transported to Iraq via illegal crossings.

sana.sy/en/?p=302710

The source also pointed out the catastrophic situation of the unilateral coercive measures imposed by the #US administration on #Syria.
sana.sy/en/?p=302710
“Syria strongly condemns this flagrant violation by the #US military official of the sovereignty & territorial integrity,” the source said.

Gen. Milley Makes Rare Visit to Syria
Rep. Gaetz slammed the visit, says his War Powers Resolution to leave Syria will be voted on soon
by Dave DeCamp
@DecampDave @mattgaetz #Syria
news.antiwar.com/2023/03/05/gen…
"General Mark Milley has traveled to Syria to justify America’s continued involvement in a Middle Eastern civil war. Jeffersonian Democracies cannot be built out of sand and blood and Arab militias alone."
-Matt Gaetz-
"Syria is a quagmire of a tinderbox. America has no discernible interest in continuing to fund a fight where alliances shift faster than the desert sands."
-Matt Gaetz-
"Next week, my legislation to end U.S. involvement in Syria will be up for a vote. If General Milley wants this war so bad, he should explain what we are fighting for and why it is worth American treasure and blood."
-Matt Gaetz-
"An America First foreign policy demands realism, rational thought, and seriousness."
-Matt Gaetz-
Remember
🧐👇
A #Syrian security source told that the recent #ISIS attacks against civilians & truffle harvesters in #Syria’s desert region were carried out with support from the #US military. These militants received training at #US Al-Tanf occupation base.
