2019-10-09 at 11:28 PM UTCit's not restricted to anywhere; the only widely-publicised instances have been in those two countries. I haven't heard of it happening among the SDF in media, even from vehemently anti-SDF reporters and sources

Here's what he said about it..
This is just trump saying all middle easterners look the same again
Originally posted by aldra I don't think Turkey cares whether it's in NATO anymore; like I said it only seems to be in name only nowadays. For the most part it's just a weapons sales racket lately and Turkey's been banned from the F-35 program.
I think a better analogy would be playing chicken considering US/Turkish goals are diametrically opposed and Turnip blinked first. Erdogan is too unpredictable and is likely to trigger a war if he doesn't get his way, and further down the line another war between Iran and israel is inevitable and they (US/israeli) want to prevent Turkey from supporting the Iran, which seems to be what they're leaning toward at the moment.
I don't really disagree, I just mean that committing to the Kurds would irreparably break ties with Turkey and long-term strategists would have a hard time justifying that given that Kurdish loyalty isn't guaranteed if someone else could potentially make them a better offer.
I'll take "reasons Trump can justify letting Erdogan bully him" for $500 Alex
He even called him a "strong leader" immediately after getting cucked by him. Kurds in Iraq have a power sharing agreement the US got them, now they have no reason to act in the US's best interests. They could in theory cozy up to Iran just to cuck the US again. Keeping them as a 4 sided thorn might feel like babysitting sometimes but they really don't require a lot and have been used to being autonomous and marginalized. The US had a chance to exploit that and use them in a ton of different ways and Trump just gave up and gave their potential away because he's a fucking fat orange bitch who can't president his way out of a paper bag. It's just depressing how stupid and weak he is -

idk maybe you grew up in peace and prosperity and so you dont know this but there are no civillians in war zones.
everybody is a combatant and the only difference is whether their a combatant for your side, or someone elses side. all idle hands belongs to non-breathing mouths.
kurds live in reality, not arsetrallia. -
