When did the people of Aleppo hand over land to Russia? You do realize the SDF collaborated with Russia and even hosts a Russian military base?
Also, the Assad government, despite all its horrors and corruption, actually cooperates with the SDF on a moderate level. There is already some trade between the two, and they fought side by side on a few occasions.
There's no way you don't believe the US is in Syria? They do not make it a secret. I'm happy to provide you with a wealth of instances where the US admits this.
maybe for a good reason
There's literally no good reason
The US coalition's bombings has been far more cruel than even the Syrian regime and ISIS. Just compare the size of the destruction, the number of destroyed buildings between the liberation of Raqqa vs the battle of Aleppo. Despite Aleppo being a much bigger city, and the fight being far more fierce, Raqqa had far more destruction and was raised to the ground.
I agree with you that the SDF does not have many friends, and I support them in milking as much US aid as they can. But selling off the oil when most Syrians are struggling for a drop of oil is cruel, and we should not accept this.
For starters: "US troops loot Syrian oil and wheat continuously"
who are keeping detained ISIL under lock and key
Yeah I am not going to excuse a US occupation with ISIS as pretext when it was the US that sponsored ISIS' creation.
I'm completely lost about your last paragraph. It sounds like you're assuming I have some stances that I do not. I support Kurdish autonomy and independence. Tying that into letting more people in non-US-occupied regions fight for a drop of heating or cooking oil is ridiculous. It doesn't have to be one or the other.
Ahh, it's only crude oil? That makes it all legitimate then /s
It's not a grand conspiracy. It's an occupation and illegitimate military intervention. The US has a long track record of doing it, and your people have a long history of supporting it :)
painting the US presence as an occupation
what definition of occupation does not include the deployment of the US military, which proceeded to build a dozen military bases in a territory of another country, which has continuously made filings to the UN about this occupation?
There have been many videos posted before that clearly show oil-carrying trucks
The Syrian conflict is 13 years old. It's ridiculous to expect every article to give you the whole context every time, especially since anything anyone will write about said context will be extremely biased. This conflict had massive misinformation campaigns from all sides.
Evaluate the information for what it is, not for whether it gives you a lecture on the history of the conflict.
SANA is primarily a TV channel, and the articles are usually a summary / transcript of the TV reports. They show videos routinely of the trucks that are very clearly carrying oil through Al-ya'rabiya, which is a border crossing from Syria to Iraq that the US controls.
Why not evaluate the information for what it is rather than checking if it belongs to your preferred camp of propaganda or not?
I got into ocaml recently. I love it. I honestly don't see issues with the syntax, maybe because I haven't used it enough.
You're still too busy analyzing the motives or agenda of the author instead of evaluating the information. Of-fucking-course the Syrian state TV is going to have an agenda that... Surprise: agrees with state policy. This is not the revelation you think it is.
Guess what? Every source has a bias or agenda. For many it is money related. If you take any source for granted, you'd be a fool. Analyze the information for what it is.
Now, the US is indeed stealing. There have been several videos posted before, and local witnesses arresting to it. This has nothing to do with whatever you think it is framing. This is actually happening.
What the hell do you call installing your literal military and building 14 bases (more US bases per square mile of any similarly-sized region in the world), and has initiated multiple attacks on Syria since?
Maybe to you. To me, it is considered theft because the oil fields which were once keeping all Syrians warm, cooking, and supplying them with electric power is now being given to an occupying military while most Syrians are struggling for a drop of heating or cooking oil, many dying of the winter cold.
