Good.

America is guilty of yet another war crime in looting Syria's natural resources by force.

For America, "rules" and "norms" apply only to others. How convenient.

Arab Spring

First there were protests.

The Assad went Gestapo on the masses.

Assad is no longer legitimate.

Syrian secret police defect as crackdown continues

"At least a dozen Syrian secret police have defected from an intelligence compound, activists said Sunday, in what appeared to be the first major desertion from a service that has acted as a pillar of President Bashar al-Assad's rule."

You might want to forget, but they won't.

On 31 July, Syrian army tanks stormed several cities, including Hama, Deir Ez-Zour, Abu Kamal, and Herak near Daraa. At least 136 people were killed, the highest death toll in any day since the start of the uprising.[269] On 5 August 2011, an anti-government demonstration took place in Syria called "God is with us", during which the Syrian security forces shot the protesters from inside the ambulances, killing 11 people consequently.[270] The Arab Spring events in Syria subsequently escalated into the Syrian Civil War.

Oh my!

Did Assad do that?

None of your word salad discounts the fact that America invaded and is currently looting a sovereign country's wealth.

That's a war crime.

The US is there to defeat ISIS and maybe help the Kurds. If you are worried that the oil money is not flowing into dictators Assad's coffers, take it up with the Kurds. You won't take it up with the Kurds unless someone has one of them strapped down for you.

Creating chaos in another country is US favorite pastime.

So you won't take it up with the Kurds. You are scared of their women too, because they know how to use rifles. Better for you to buy one from ISIS tied up and shackled. Only then would you bring up looting and errrr... other subjects.
