So the US is in Syria without the permission of the Syrian government

And have the gall to be training rebel forces on Syrian land, and in order to maintain their foothold on a strategic location, they preemptively attack forces supposedly lead by Iran (who did have permission from the Syrian government to be in the country) because they entered "an agreed-upon non-conflict zone".

I'd it just me, or is the only force creating conflict the US? I'm not crazy, right?

@Invisible: Sorry, I'm not going to criticize what we're doing now because it is the result of NOT doing something earlier. And we're not exactly forcing ourselves on the rebels. They invited us.

@katielass: It's not a result of not doing something before, it's utterly unnecessary for us to overthrow Syria
