Turks "Mistakenly" Fire on US Special Forces?

[georgephillip]

"A contingent of U.S. Special Forces was caught up in Turkish shelling against U.S.-backed Kurdish positions in northern Syria, days after President Donald Trump told his Turkish counterpart he would withdraw U.S. troops from certain positions in the area.

"A senior Pentagon official said shelling by the Turkish forces was so heavy that the U.S. personnel considered firing back in self-defense."

Exclusive: Turkey attacks US special forces in Syria, apparently by mistake

Is it possible Trump did not realize he was giving Erdogan a green light to invade northern Syria?

Is it (more) likely some of Turkey's Arab militia fighters believe they have a score to settle with the US?

What happens if a US soldier dies from a NATO ally's American-made weapons?

 

[theHawk]

As I have been saying for years, time to boot Turkey out of NATO.

Drop a few MOABs on their Muslim asses as well.

Opinion | Take It From A Civil Liberties Professor - Trump And Hitler Have A Lot In Common

"'One of the most striking Nazi views was that Jim Crow was a suitable racist program in the United States because American blacks were already oppressed and poor,' he says. 'But then in Germany, by contrast, where the Jews (as the Nazis imagined it) were rich and powerful, it was necessary to take more severe measures.'"

If we cared about the Kurds, we wouldn't have been allies with Saddam Hussein in the 80's .

Because...

You love China and you love war. And you cut military budgets to the point the soldier's life is in danger when TRAINING! And you spout the Viet Nam thing that was a bad time for many people. Including Prog politicians. You war lovers. We always knew Progs are war mongers. But the neo con branch of the swamp had control of that agenda.

Henry Kissinger also betrayed the Kurd using far more graphic language.

"'Our movement and people are being destroyed in an unbelievable way, with silence from everyone. We feel, your Excellency, that the United States has a moral and political responsibility towards our people, who have committed themselves to your country’s policy.' Kurdish leader Mustafa Barzani’s message to Kissinger, 1975.

"'Promise them anything, give them what they get, and f… them if they can’t take a joke.' Kissinger to a staff member regarding the Kurds, 1975."

I have no love for China or wars of aggression, and I'm unaware of any progressive who feels otherwise; could you name one who supports authoritarian capitalism and eternal war?

"Dr. Kissinger created a terror period (1975-2003) that was the darkest, bloodiest, the most painful period in the history of Kurdistan’s struggle for obtaining basic human rights and freedom.

"In cooperation with Iran and Israel, his plan for the Kurds, according to Lando (2010). 'was a ruthless, deceitful process, which resulted in hundreds of thousands of Kurds being slaughtered and displaced over the years.'"

So are you calling for Turkey to be disowned by NATO, arming the Kurds, and even help them gain independence from Turkey, Syria, and Iraq?

And Iran, at least that was one of the "mission accomplished" talking points of 15 years ago.

If Turkey is violating NATO protocols, they should be held accountable; although, after decades of human rights violations against the Kurds, that isn't likely to happen.

In other words you are full of shit and are willing to let Turkey get away with whatever they want, so long as you get to blame President Trump.
