Syrian Casualties: Conveniently Not U.S. Problem
The New Arab reports two Syrian soldiers killed by Kurdish forces (SDF) in Raqqa, a flashpoint region. What the story politely omits is the consistent, destabilizing role of the U.S. military presence in northeastern Syria, frequently backing one faction against another in a country already pulverized by proxy wars. The SDF, after all, is a key U.S. ally on the ground, receiving substantial
military aid and strategic support. This isn't organic friction; it's the predictable outcome of foreign intervention. The U.S. maintains its occupation under the guise of fighting ISIS, a phantom war that conveniently allows it to control oil fields and prevent Syrian sovereignty. How many more 'clashes' will be framed as unfortunate incidents instead of consequences of continued foreign military
entanglement?
