  7. THE ANSWER IS YES, IRAN IS RESPONSIBLE AND HAS BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THOUSANDS OF U.S AND COALITION TROOP/ CIVILIAN DEATHS SINCE THE START OF WAR ON TERROR. WITHOUT IRAN, ALL THESE TERROR MILITANT GROUPS COULDN'T FUNCTION WITHOUT IRAN'S FINANCING AND OTHER WIDE RANGE SUPPORT.

  8. We should’ve mopped the floor with the Iranian Guard and that entire regime long ago. It’s about time to make their mothers cry.

  9. why American contractor is in Syria, Usa is not respecting any country sovereignty and doing all war crimes. then questions with pig face Russia. what a shame.

  10. Why are you in Syria, sir? You have no business there.

  11. USA is in a tight spot in Syria, after the defeat of isis they betrayed the kurds. So the kurds are cautious getting involved in anything. It was better for the kurds to be with the Russians. at least they wouldn't be betrayed. Instead, have a dialog with the Syrian government. How difficult it seems sometimes you need to move forward for the people instead of holding grudges.

  12. YES WE CAN🇮🇷❤🇷🇺❤🇨🇳

  13. you scold Russia for Ukraine, but no one called the United States to Syria

  14. Is the international community going to impose sanctions against the USA because of this special operation?

  15. Smh ….it’s ironic how these clowns have the audacity to openly lie about defending that region from ISIS, when it’s the US Government that created them in the first place!!!! (As stated by Hillary Clinton under oath and other Government officials)The US has NO place in that region!!! They have killed millions of innocent lives, including US soldiers. Leave, that region in PEACE and let them solve their problems and differences. DO exactly what you did in Afghanistan, after 20 yrs of WASTED taxpayer money and just fking LEAVE!!!!

  16. War monger fundamentalists that profit on war can’t imagine peace or neutrality.

  17. How many were killed?

  19. Any relationship to the attacks with the recent overflights by Russian planes over US bases in Syria? Russians could have provided geo coordinates for the drones to target.

  20. New attack against U.S. base in Syria after alleged Iranian drone kills American contractor, drawing airstrikes 🇷🇺🇮🇷🇨🇳

  21. Hey look another war…thanks Joe!

  22. Why these countries choose to fight us is baffling to me, when all we are doing is showing them a better way of life.

  23. US is stealing an average of 66,000 barrels of oil per day in Syria, about 80 percent of Syria's oil. The person killed was a fracking contractor engineer

  24. There were new attacks today.

  25. Did Gen. Milley notify Iran prior the attack on their base, as he said he would the Chinese?

  26. It looks like the USA want to get all USA loving citizen , to die .! I swear the USA government is trying to destroy the country!
    By crashing trains / going in to country’s where they don’t belong ! Like will the real people of the US PLEASE STAND UP PLEASE STAND UP

  27. TY JOE BIDUMB Now are the Sleeper Cells that ILLEGALLY Crossed OUR Border ! Going to Start Blowing Up Buildings in OUR Country for RETALIATION ?? JOES NEVER-ENDING WAR 🤮🤮🇺🇸MAGA

  28. The secret is the US is coming after Iran.

  29. These deaths could’ve been prevented if we go back to isolation instead of getting in military boondoggles & quagmires

  30. WTF is the US doing in Syria in the first place. They were not invited in by the Syrian government and thus this is an illegal invasion, no different to that of the RF in Ukraine. It’s the hypocrisy I find most irritating, in the same week of the illegal invasion of Iraq and the murder of several hundred thousand Iraqis. The US is a plague on the world civilisation.

  31. Qng si trump dinadaan lng sa usapan ang mga ganyan ibahin ibahin nyo si BIDEN pupulbusin kau nyan pag nagalit pagbinomba ganti agad

  32. Wait.. why are we in Syria?
