As recently as the last time they were used against the CIA trained "moderate" rebels in Syria...that really incensed the uUS.

A year ago (when it was the Russians who were accused of using them, of course), the US position was inline with the rest of the world: they were illegal.

But being the US, we flipped our position the moment it became expedient.
