Kurds in Syria Brace for War as Turkey Says Incursion Is Imminent - The New York Times
Turkey’s planned move to root out Kurdish militants in northeastern Syria, after the United States withdrew its forces from two observation posts near the border, has sparked fierce debates in Washington and could
That huge sucking sound you hear is the sound of the Trump presidency going down the toilet.
It has begun.
Turkey begins military offensive in Syria, days after Trump announced pullback of US troopsErdogan is calling this operation, "Peace Spring". About as Orwellian as it can get.
Turkey has launched a planned military offensive into northeastern Syria, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced Wednesday, just days after the Trump administration announced it was pulling US troops back from the border area.
"Our aim is to destroy the terror corridor which is trying to be established on our southern border and to bring peace and peace to the region," Erdogan tweeted.
We are watching the roots of a new America-hating caliphate being birthed. Expect blowback in a couple years.

Turkey launches offensive against Kurdish fighters in Syria
"Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced the start of the campaign, which followed an abrupt decision Sunday by U.S. President Donald Trump that American troops would step aside to allow for the operation."
"Trump’s move represented a shift in U.S. policy that essentially abandoned the Syrian Kurdish fighters who have been America’s only allies on the ground in Syria. They were longtime U.S. allies in the fight against the Islamic State group."

Trump is the worst president in American history. This is unbelievable.
Trump just set back American standing in the world to an all time low.
Those Kurds weren't going to ethnically cleanse themselves, you know. Trump is a brave man giving Erdogan and Putin this chance to take over.
Pulling our forces out of Syria does not equate to abandoning the Kurds. Trump has threatened to destroy Turkey's economy, obliterate it, if Ankara takes a planned military strike in Syria... Turkey has no other choice than to retreat.
You left out Iran. They are going to turn to one or a combo of each of them to survive now. Welcome to WW3.
this cant be true. Trix told me so
Putin said jump and trump asked how high.

Looks like the forum's right-wing soothsayer was just a tad wrong. #PutinsPuppet ordered a stand down.

So, does that mean Erdogan has already ethnically cleansed about 20% of his own population?!? ... given that about 15 million Kurds live in Turkey.
