U.S. forces in Syria were injured Friday from Iranian rocket attacks targeted American outposts, Fox News has learned.

The attacks occurred in Deir Ezzor in eastern Syria. A senior U.S. defense official said there were two separate attacks carried out by Iranian proxy forces targeting two U.S. bases.

One was a rocket attack and the other involved multiple Iranian drones, the official said. The number of casualties has not been disclosed but some may be serious. The Pentagon was assessing its response.

The attacks came after an American contractor was killed by a suspected Iranian drone that hit and injured six servicemen in northeast Syria.

How dare they.

We invited ourselves into Syria; who is anyone over there to tell us that we're not welcome?

Convenient timing. Right when Iran and Saudi Arabia sign a peace treaty brokered by China, and Syria and Turkey are burying the hatchet. DC gins up a war.

Trump correctly tried to pull them out and was sabotaged by the Deep State.

All our people there are expendable for the Deep State.

America is not invited in Syria.

But they have military bases there.

Hmmmm...there is a word for that.

The pentagon needs to send lots of recruiters into private schools circling DC... Political ‘elites’ benefit - time for their kids to sign up for cannon fodder positions. Oh, and same with the gay trans etc ‘communities’.

I read they were in northern Syria, which is Kurdistan. We have some people at work who are from there. Unless we have them elsewhere.

(Funny this one of the women from Kurdistan doesn’t wear anything on her head; she looks like she’s from New York City. Kind of like one of the sisters of Joey Ramone. She left and moved there she looks so NYC it’s so fitting.)

Get our troops out of there. The us has no legitimate reason for being there. Turn the syrian bases over to the syrian government.

I agree. Under International Law we should not have troops there.

There is no such thing as “rules based international order”; it’s something the Neo-cons and the uniparty made up.

And they lied to 45 about being there.
