Wait what? There are US troops in Syria? That is news to me. I thought the US was just bombing the shit out of it.

The corporate media isn’t keen to report on it.

But yeah, US troops occupied the only part of Syria with oil, and have been stealing it and shipping it out on tankers ever since.

If I was in charge, I’d have drone shots of every tanker arriving, filling up, and driving to its destination and offloading the cargo. Then an estimate of how much it was worth, and THIEF THIEF THIEF overlaid with Pelosi and Obama everyone else who wanted this war.
