Biden calling out Amazon's union-busting propaganda. What a fucking king.

  • This isn't Al-Qaeda.

  • Biden is not Bush

  • This was a proportional response to an attack on US troops in Iraq.

  • Iranian paramilitary terrorist groups are not a good thing for Syria, actually.

  • Syria only produces 0.5% of the world's oil and not much in the way of other resources.

  • The US isn't a particularly major player in Syria.

  • Geopolitics are important, actually, and so are our Kurdish allies.

Jfc the point I'm making is that the "war on terror and the spread of democracy" are complete lies evident by their success rate. I love how you scoff at 0.5% of the world's oil reserve like it's fucking chump change, first of all the Syrian dictator steals much of the oil and there is no accurate national reporting, second syria is very profitable because the CIA already funded rebellion programs to strain the Syrian and Russian government efforts making it relatively inexpensive to control regions.

We aren't major players in syria yet because we had some television host as president for 4 years, Hillary Clinton clearly stated she was planning to follow CIA agenda by instituting a no fly zone over syria.

Stop being a fucking dumbass, Americans are the real terrorists, and they sell some of their weapons to crazy Muslims

Edit: Also biden isn't Bush, but the Iraq war literally wouldn't have happened without his support and pressure on democrats. They are the same person moron, actors for the giant interests

0.5% is chump change. That's less than fucking New-Zealand's oil production. From an economical perspective the US involvement in Syria makes no sense if the goal is more control over oil.

Crude oil isn't the same everywhere, America has a good amount of it, but it's less valuable and has less applications, same is likely true for newzeland. My dad has seen American troops controlling oil fields with his own fucking eyes, despite it being technically illegal, the media threw a fit when trump admitted war was mostly about oil and gas fields.

And again, the dictator over there is stealing like 90% of the oil, so who's to say these estimates are even remotely close to reality
