Way to derail the conversation about Syria with a country way that has little to do with it. (yes even if OP said middle east)
Even with Yemen, the United States started. The yemeni rebels fought against an oppressive government, and the United States had to intervene in the interest of Saudi for many years before the yemenis ever responded. So your example does not disprove the claim.
- Sorry... you're saying it's never self-defense if you were the initial aggressor years ago?
  
  Yes
  With their help, the worst humanitarian crisis of the 21st century was created in yemen
  They didn't hit once and just stop. Not that its okay if they did.
  Stop derailing please. You're not gonna successfully justify those crimes.
  
  What crimes am I justifying? Please quote me. Otherwise I'm just going to report you for incivility and trolling.
  
  Sorry I'm no longer interested in such a derailed conversation.
  
  Because you lied and I did no such thing. Good to know I can report and move on.
