    U.S. is in Syria for the long haul, says Michael Mulroy, Dep Ass Sec for Def. The US is “not in a bad situation” in Syria, Mulroy said, the country has “ a very capable partner,” & the territory contains “a lot of the oil resources & arable land.”https://ahvalnews.com/node/46164

        of course, stealing oil is the main motive of the US. No need to tell us that. It is OK if one million Syrians have been killed. After all, we killed 150 million red Indians. It's nothing. They don't deserve to live. We are the white intelligent and great people of the world.

        So, assuming that the SDF can claim legal right to the oil, how exactly will it be exported? Are the Kurds to build an actual refinery and export finished products? Who will finance this refinery?

        Trump admin should issue Opus numbers for their policies so we can keep track of the revisions.

        But why are they there? When did they decide they had rights to the oil? When did they declare war on Syria?

        "We liked #Syria's stuff, so we took it. We also want #Venezuela's stuff, so we're going to take it, too. Why ask when countries always whine about giving us their stuff? Plus, our military keeps busy & our arms producers get to make new tanks & guns. It's really a win-win".
