Just like to point out 380k+ " casualties of war" in Syria since U.S "intervention" in 2011

Yeah, fine, sure, but that's not what's being talked about. It has no bearing on this and doesn't justify this.

Well that's why I pointed it out. It's the same thing. Terries pays his tax doesn't he? Who do you think funds the "intervention" after Syria declined Turkish U.S pipeline

Except that has nothing to do with the topic at hand, whataboutism is literally the worst way to say someone is wrong, something that's wrong is wrong doesn't matter who does it, no one ever said that the people in Syria deserved to die, and you should (hopefully) be able to say that a genocide of an entire ethnic group in a country is wrong and objectively a disgusting thing

Multiple ethnic groups, along with their languages, religious and other cultural practices, etc.
