The Betrayal That Changed US Military Rules Forever

The rules of engagement in the Middle East have been redrawn following a shocking betrayal near Palmyra. After an insurgent wearing the uniform of an ally opened fire on American forces, the U.S. military responded with a level of force rarely seen in modern conflict. In a single night of retaliation, over seventy targets across central Syria were neutralized. This video explores the Trojan horse attack that left two American service members and a civilian dead, and why the Pentagon has issued a final warning: any threat to American lives will be met with unparalleled force. We break down the implications of this massive military shift and whether this decisive response will deter future attacks or escalate the region into a much larger war. Stay informed on how these new rules of engagement protect those in uniform and what this means for the future of U.S. involvement in Syria.
