It is France that called for an ‘urgent’ UN meeting- Earlier there were claims that Russia was going to do that. Claims, quite frankly I did not believe. Since I hold the opinion Russia green lighted this operation. As did Iran. As did Syria. It seems self evident despite all the cheap talk.US Broken promises trigger Afrin operation*Arming PKK/YPG Kurds*Broken US promise to have their kurdish proxies retreat east of the euphrates*Creating a “border force” aka a terror army right on Turkey’s border* Building US bases to support an occupation
“If the US wasn’t going to arm Kurds, Turkey wouldn’t have arrived to the point where it is.” Ankara “tried to draw attention of its ally, [telling the Americans] ‘You should not arm and train and provide ammunition to a terrorist group’,” Yakis said, referring to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) viewed by Ankara as a terrorist group.
IS Units Hidden Amongst Kurds in AfrinOf course they are! That’s the way this ‘game’ has been played since it started. I caught on to this some years ago- Hence KurdIShIS!Turkish Jets Hit the Air base used by the US to Arm Kurds in Afrin
The Turkish Air Force attacked the Menagh Military Airbase in northwestern Syria, which the US used for supplying weapons to Kurdish armed forces, the Hurriyet newspaper reported citing military sources.The newspaper noted that the airfield was among the 113 targets scheduled for the attack during Operation Olive Branch in Syrian Africa.
Misleading Headline from Albawaba- so I’m using my ownA broader perspective on the real agenda in the regionFinally we get a better look at what the Syrian destabilization has been about, even though this article is lacking.Turkey vs Kurds? - Not entirely. The hoped and planned for creation of a Kurdish nation state from the ashes of four destroyed nations. Control of the Turkish Straits. Impeding Russia.Iran/Hezbollah versus U.S./Israel? Iran & Lebanon vs Usrael. Is more accurateMediterranean gas resources.. Pipelines etc.,Russia*Russia and arms deals*Russia and trade*Russia and resources* warm water port access - Again think Black sea. Turkish straits, Crimea/UkraineThe Forgotten Syrian people?True enough. I've not forgotten them. But the ordinary folk we're never a concern to anyone other then the domestic government.Albawaba forgot this, I'm including itIsrael & the creation of Kurdistan aka Israel 2.0* Ally in the region (non arab)* Trading partner (drugs, arms, organs, people)* Land grab- Greater Israel* Both the Kurdish thugs and their Israeli allies detest Christians. There are reports that Turkey’s planning a buffer zone*but we already know that Russia has told the US backed Kurdish proxies to hand the territory back to Syria- And it is Syria’s territory. And they’ll pretty much put a stop to this- The US backed Kurds refused. They can change their mind. But I don’t think they want to.From earlier today:
Kurds Rejected Russian Protection In Exchange for Syrian Territorial Return
One thing we can say with certainty this is all “up in the air” and deadly dangerous.The potential for this to spin out of control is very high.
