A Pentagon spokesperson claims that the oil revenues US troops have secured in northern Syria will not be going to the US, but will be directed to the YPG/PKK-led SDF instead

A US soldier walks during a patrol near an oil well in Rumaylan in Syria's northeastern Hasakeh province on November 6, 2019.

"This is going to the SDF,” he said during a news conference in which he maintained US support for its main partner in Syria. The Pentagon maintains the effort is focused squarely on denying the Daesh terror group from accessing the revenues it once used to help it sprawl across and cement its grip on the region.

“The mission is the defeat of ISIS," Byrne said, using another name for Daesh. "The securing of the oil fields is a subordinate task to do that mission. And the purpose of that task is to deny ISIS the revenues from that oil infrastructure.”

US goal is always to rape rob and pillage minnow states. Oil isn’t the reason. It’s the reason they want to portray. The actual reason is to “protect their allies” (Israel). Not because they care. But because they are controlled through payments - at an individual level. Also. They want to stunt Muslim population growth.
