Konflikten i Syrien

President Donald Trump has threatened to cut aid to UN member states who vote against US at the upcoming UN General Assembly on the issue of Washington’s Jerusalem move. He said the US will save “billions” in the process

“They take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we’re watching those votes. Let them vote against us. We’ll save a lot. We don’t care,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

The United Nations is rebuilding the devastated city of east Aleppo under the direction of the dictatorial Assad regime that destroyed it, according to U.N. planning documents examined by Fox News.

The plans, coordinated by the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the Syrian Government's Ministry of Local Administration and Environment, underline the extent of control the regime continues to exercise over the ostensibly neutral humanitarian program in the country.

They also stoke fears that the rebuilding program, part of the next phase of a multibillion-dollar humanitarian response plan for Syria, will entrench the displacement of tens of thousands of Syrians who fled Aleppo before it fell to Assad’s forces in December 2016.

Two House lawmakers and combat veterans are leading a bipartisan effort urging the Justice Department to open an investigation into the role the Syrian regime, led by President Bashar al-Assad, played in targeting American troops during the war in Iraq.

In a December 7 letter addressed to Attorney General Jeff Sessions – obtained exclusively by Fox News – Republican Chairman of the Warrior Caucus Steve Russell of Oklahoma and Democratic Chairman Seth Moulton of Massachusetts claimed that from 2003 to 2009 the Assad regime was “responsible for assisting terrorist groups to cross from Syria and enter into Iraq specifically seeking to target American troops resulting in casualties and serious injuries.”

My advice, if you "reporting" #FakeNews on behalf of the #USA, do it not so obvious.
Much more dangerous is that such #FakeNews poison the climate and #Kurds become increasingly isolated.That is certainly in #geopolitical interest of #USA, but not in the interest of the #YPG.

I dag röstade länderna i generalförsamlingen igenom ett resolutionsförslag som formellt slår fast att eventuella uttalanden om Jerusalems status saknar rättslig betydelse. 128 medlemsstater, inklusive Sverige, röstade för förslaget medan 9 röstade emot. 35 stater avstod från att rösta medan 21 inte var närvarande.
