The U.S. State Department is patting itself on the back for bringing "peace" to Syria in 2015.  “The United States and many members of the international community have stepped up to aid the Syrian people during their time of need — the United States has led the world in humanitarian aid contributions since the crisis began in 2011,” State Department spokesman John Kirby said in the department’s official blog.

Deputy State Department spokesman Mark Toner defended the claim during a Monday press briefing, stating that “the operative word there is bringing, not brought, so we’re bringing peace and security to Syria.”

Now, doesn't that hyperbole just frost the legs off a lizard?  

I guess I should have expected it.  Remember that John Kerry claimed he received dozens of Purple Hearts and Bronze Stars for his service in Viet Nam.  

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
