Tensions between the United States and Syria come from three major sources. Syria disapproves (to put it mildly) American support for the State of Israel at all and certainly more than the Palestinians. The United States sees Syria as a puppet government propped up by Iran and sheltering and funding numerous terrorist organizations like Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad. Finally, the United States disagrees with the Syrian policy of torturing dissenters and killing their own citizens.

There's Tension between Syria and the US why?

Tension between Syria and the US primarily stems from the Syrian government's brutal crackdown on dissent during the civil war, which the US condemned and opposed. Additionally, the US has criticized Syria's ties to Iran and support for groups like Hezbollah, viewing them as destabilizing forces in the region. The US military presence in Syria, aimed at combating ISIS, has further complicated relations, as the Syrian government views it as an infringement on its sovereignty. These factors have contributed to a strained and adversarial relationship.
