Check out these pictures of Raqqa after US and NATO bomblngs freed them for democracy. 70-80% of buildings were destroyed. The "official" UN civilian death toll is listed as 4,118 but some estimates say the number could be 10x higher as the city lacks the resources to sift through the rubble. https://www.boredpanda.com/before-after-war-photos-aleppo-syria/?utm_source=duckduckgo&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=organic

That set of photos is of Aleppo, which was bombed out by Russia as part of the Battle of Aleppo, not the US or NATO. Also, NATO itself has had no involvement in Syria, just individual countries. That's not to say that Raqqa doesn't have its own problems, of course.

I love how westerners keep trying to white wash and rehabilitate literal fascists nowadays.
