The world is thawing.Turkey begins military offensive in Syria, Erdogan announces
Turkey begins military offensive into Syria after US pulled back troops - CNNPolitics
trump will be remembered as the spineless coward who turned his back on our allies....the Kurds....
So here's my question. Per Trump, 100% of the ISIS fighters have been captured.
Who then are the Turks invading Kurdish held Syria to fight?
The Kurdish issue boils down to the Kurds wanting their own country, and Syria, Turkey and Iraq saying "No".
So your answer is....the Turks are there to fight the Kurds?
The Turks are there to get their own border out of range of the fighting, regardless of who is doing it.
They have been fighting their own Kurds for decades and we haven't said boo about it (maybe mini-boos from time to time).
They probably think the Syrian Kurds are working with the Turkish Kurds to funnel weapons into Turkey through the obvious chaos of the border region.
This is my view of things with the info I have so far.
So the Kurds again are the target of the Turkish invasion into Kurdish held Syria.
The Kurds...our allies and the very folks who did the majority of the fighting in Syria for us. And allied with us in Iraq. And are holding ISIS prisoners for us.
In October, President Trump announced we were leaving northern Syria. All the experts in Washington said this would lead genocide. They were wrong. Turkey and Syria turned their border into a demilitarized zone.
America First is not an abandonment of the world, but an abandonment of a foolhardy policy that we know how to run the world.
The people of the world love America, they just want us to keep our distance.
