  1. They might want to watch out. Americans are kinda angry right now with the troubles we have here at home. That's gonna put an extra sting into their bite of the enemy.

  2. Why don't that USA army make a base in north Korea. In the same reason why you are in Syria. Or better yet make a base in afghanistan or try Vietnam.

  3. USA has no right to be in Syria the Syrian government did not in invite them to be there .

  4. Republicans and Democrats are sending US servicemembers to risk their lives in the Middle East, while they get rich off the suffering of others.

  5. America strongly believes that it is Superman, but they are the ones who create these wars, and everyone can see the increase in sales of American weapons companies since the beginning of the war.

  6. The US is illegally in Syria. No one invited the US into Syria. The Assad government is the legally recognized government in Syria. The US tried to overthrow Assad and almost destroyed Syria and it led to the brutalization of Syrians with Syrian Christians and Yazidis being decimated. The US invasion of Iraq wiped out Iraqi Christians and the few Iraqi Christians who were given refuge in Syria by Assad became stateless again due to attempts to remove Assad and the destabilization of Syria. The US is basically occupying Syria at this moment and then acting like the victim when they are shown they are not welcome. American soldiers stationed in Syria should be ashamed.

  7. And in comes Russia. When did Syria say it was ok for US troops to be in their country?

  8. Biden and many politicians, in their hubris, are pushing the US into what may likely turn into a disaster. Obama has warned that continued brutality toward Palestinians in Gaza would lead to repercussions and reprisals against the US and add to a cycle of violence. But no politician is listening to him. One would have thought that Biden might have at least consulted with Obama. But instead, he has charged in and thrown his full support behind Israel to do whatever they want. The US has gone so far as to stop the UN from doing anything that would restrain Israel from killing of mass numbers of civilians. Biden then asks for aid money so that the US tax payer can pay for the killing and genocide of Palestinians. When Biden was asked about the risks, he replied, "we are the United States …" implying that there was no need for caution.

  9. Don't like your army on arabic country go home

  10. What you guys are doing in Middleeast I don’t know. Stop this Zionist regime. Nothing but killing people. Just get your people back and Stop. Just Stop.

  11. Us forces if you dont wanna be attacked get out of the countries you erongfully invaded and go back where you came from.
