Answer:
Secret operations that destroy entire countries for U.S. interests are as American as apple pie, whether it's the Gulf of Tonkin, Iraq's WMD, or simple coups.
It is difficult to determine the definitive actions of a government so prone to lying and deception. What we do know about the U.S. in Syria doesn't paint a positive picture. No matter how you spin it, the U.S. and its allies are using terrorists to serve their own selfish interests. ISIS started with the United States and is continuing to cause issues around the globe to this day.
