The other day I closed up this post: Russia Anti Regime Change Strategy for Venezuela- US Get Troops out of Syria, Then We'll Talk! with the paragraph below:
"The United States must fulfill its promises, including the withdrawal of troops from Syria, before turning to Russia with demands to leave Venezuela, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Russian state television"
That very same night Israel bombed Syria. Undoubtedly emboldened by Trump’s recognition of Golan as Israeli.Syrians Protest Trump's Arrogant Imperialism
Israel bombs Syria
I’ve lost count of how many times this has occurred since 2011. Israel targeted north east of Aleppo. The strikes hit *"a number of industrial sites in Sheikh Najjar industrial zone." Allegedly, sites where Iran holds munitions. What other claim could we expect Israel to make?Interestingly Turkey and Russia are jointly patrolling in an area northwest of Aleppo that is presently held by the SDF. On Tuesday they'd began their patrols though it's only being reported today.*Turkish, Russian forces carry out patrols in Kurdish-controlled Syrian region:
- Turkish and Russian forces carried out the first “independent and coordinated” patrols in the mainly Kurdish-controlled northern Syrian region of Tel Rifaat, Turkey’s defense ministry said on Tuesday. Tel Rifaat is controlled by Kurdish-led forces and is located some 20 km east of Afrin
You can find both locales on this *map They aren't too far apart from one another- *Let’s talk a bit about the recognition granted by Trump:As it relates to the West Bank:
"Some analysts say the move will embolden Israeli lawmakers who seek to annex the West Bank—either the 60 percent of it classified as Area C, under Israeli administrative control, or the occupied territory in its entirety. This is already sought by cabinet members and lawmakers in Netanyahu’s Likud Party and other parties on the right. “Everyone says you can’t hold an occupied territory, but this proves you can,” Netanyahu said in late March 2019, returning from his White House visit."
"The recent move of US President Donald Trump to recognize Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights has caused concern among Lebanese officials that Washington’s decision would mean recognizing the occupied Shebaa Farms as Israeli territory.Lebanon says the zone is Lebanese territory while Israel considers it part of the Golan."
Building a new regional reality.
You know the one I’ve written about for years and years here? Being built in plain sight?
“This is a criminal project or plan for which the US government and its allies have used all tools at their disposal,” Jaafari said, adding that the plan is aimed at guaranteeing chaos and destruction in the region, and dividing the people of the region on religious and ethnic basis in order to “build a new reality”.
Turkey, Iran and Russia have come out very strongly against the US recognizing Golan as Israeli.One would think Turkey would cheer on the recognition? Considering all the disinformers claim Turkey wants to ‘steal Syrian territory’ and this recognition would or could serve their interests. Yet... Turkey has come out strongly against Trump’s proclamation? One possible reason for this dissent may be that Turkey is looking into the future and seeing it’s own territory being stolen and unlawfully recognized as belonging to another? This same type of ‘recognition’ has the potential to harm Russian and Iranian territorial integrity. Think about it? Think about what’s been written for years at PFYT’s. The regional remake. An eye to balkanizing Russia. Impeding the Silk road. Etc.,Independent or Reuters
Turkish Statement "“This unfortunate decision...demonstrates that the U.S. Administration continues its approach to be part of the problem, rather than part of the solution in the Middle East,” a ministry statement said.
‘Illegal and unacceptable recognition does not change the fact that it belongs to Syria,’ says Tehran
Bad Turkey, Iran and Russia. They’ll simply have to be dealt with... ISIS 2.0 all set to go! One can already see the plans being laid and the narrative creation in the works. Preparatory outlines for a future narratives that will needed for the inevitable and undoubtedly desired resurgence of ISIS. Let’s go back to an older report shall we? Back to February 18/19: Former "IsIamic State" fighters return home to Kurdish Held Syria Where it was plainly stated :“So the seeds for an ISIS resurgence are being readied. Should that be required. Because it’s that obvious this is exactly what is happening. The Usrael Kurds are giving a free pass to “ISIS”. They can just go home. Within Syria. And Iraq. That’s convenient should a resurgence be required for future geo-political machinations?Feb 26/19: SDF transfers ISIS to Iraq- 130 plus 150 and another 500. That’s 780 to Iraq. Plus those that were released and stayed put in Kurdish held territory in Syria
“An Iraqi military colonel confirmed to Reuters that 130 people were transferred on Sunday, adding to the 150 transferred on Thursday. They included the first known transfers of non-Iraqi detainees to Iraq, but it was unclear if they will remain in Iraqi custody. There are meant to be more such handovers under an agreement to transfer a group of some 500 detainees held by the SDF in Syria, Iraqi military sources said.
ISIS 2.0- Seeding a New Insurgency*As the caliphate crumbles, the Islamic State is seeding a new insurgency
SDF recruits have leaked information allowing Islamic State sleeper cells to target commanders along the road from Busayrah. The SDF said Monday that it had released 283 Syrians who had worked with the Islamic State, saying they had no “blood on their hands” and describing the gesture as one of “cooperation, fraternity and clemency.”
Hundreds of fighters are believed to have escaped (or allowed to leave?) Baghouz in recent weeks, with many( how many?) paying large sums to smugglers in return for safe passage across the Iraqi border or to areas controlled by the Syrian government, (Future terrorizers being smuggled into government held areas) according to SDF fighters and western diplomats.
ISIS 2.0- *"No blood on their hands"? According to SDF.
The challenges for Iraq’s government are greater still. Hundreds of Islamic State fighters have crossed the border from eastern Syria in recent weeks, despite a beefed-up Iraqi military presence ( aided by that military presence) there, and several thousand more are thought to be hiding out in remote areas.
“There is a perception growing among the people that these are the end days of Islamic State but many analysts and even US intelligence community warns that the group will still be a long-term threat. While the physical caliphate is about to extinguish the extremist group still has thousands of fighters in its ranks in Iraq and Syria.”
Bottom line?The saying "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" Comes to mind. So one would think in order to prevent the resurgence of ISIS these terrorists would be incarcerated for the rest of their days. Considering we've been repeatedly informed of their extreme global terrorist potential, but, no, let'em go. Can it get anymore obvious that these ISIS fighters are being given a free pass by the SDF/Usrael Kurds and the Coalition? It's already known they will regroup and reappear. No one individual, government, media outlet, alt or msm, can claim this would be unexpected, shocking or a surprise. I don't want to hear/read it claimed some time down the road this is "Blowback" That would be spin sheer and utter nonsense. Blowback would be unexpected. The resurgence of ISIS is completely predicted and predictable. Expected and desired. Here we have the moral & fierce YPG lending a helping hand in creating ISIS 2.0!Fully participating with their coalition pals. But then as long term readers here are fully aware the moral YPG fierce fighters of ISIS has been a big lie from start to finish. I stumbled across another author who wrote an extensive piece on mythology of the YPG's excellence/morality. (The link and a few excerpts will be posted directly below) An extreme example of your perception being managed. If you bought into the common presentation of the YPG/SDF as heroic you've been duped. Hoodwinked. Ensnared and beguiled by a lie so big, so extensive it really did attain a mythological status. While at the same time it was flimsy and easy to debunk. All one had to do was make a bit of an effort to lift the veil. To look behind the mask. To not be lazy. Or be intentionally misleading. Whichever?*The Myth of the Kurdish YPG’s Moral Excellence: Stephen Gowans
Of course, Washington lends a hand, helpfully denominating its proxies in the most laudatory terms. Islamist insurgents in Syria, mainly Al Qaeda, were not too many years ago celebrated as a pro-democracy movement, and when that deception proved no longer tenable, as moderatesSurely somewhere there exist armed anti-government secular Leftists to rally behind; for it appears that the goal is to find a reason, any reason, no matter how tenuous, to create a nimbus of moral excellence around some group that opposes with arms the government in Damascus; some group that can be made to appear to be non-sectarian, anti-imperialist, socialist, committed to the rights of women and minorities, and pro-Palestinian; in other words, a group just like Syria’s Ba’ath Arab Socialists, except not them.Stepping forward to fulfill that hope is the PKK, an anarchist guerrilla group Which goes by the name of the YPG in Syria, where it is the principal component of the lionized “Syrian Democratic Force.”
Kurds in SyriaIt’s difficult to determine with precision how many Kurds are in Syria, but it’s clear that the ethnic group comprises only a small percentage of the Syrian population (less than 10 percent according to the CIA, and 8.5 percent according to an estimate cited by Nikolaos Van Dam in his book The Struggle for Power in Syria.
teeny corner of syria was where the Kurds residedAnd yet with Usrael’s help the PKK are now holding onto 1/3 of Syria's territory. The most resource rich part of SyriaThis isn't justice for Kurdish inhabitants of Syria. It's just a land grab to reshape the region.
The PKKKurdish fighters in Syria operate under the name of the YPG, which is “tied to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, a radical guerrilla movement combining [anarchist ideas] with Kurdish nationalism. PKK guerrillas [have] fought the Turkish state from 1978” and the PKK is “classified as a terrorist organization by the European Union, Turkey and the U.S.” [3]Cemil Bayik is the top field commander of both the PKK in Turkey and of its Syrian incarnation, the YPG. Bayik “heads the PKK umbrella organization, the KCK, which unites PKK affiliates in different countries. All follow the same leader, Abdullah Ocalan, who has been in prison in Turkey” [4] since 1999, when he was apprehended by Turkish authorities with CIA assistance.
Please read the linked article- Fully. Check the references.One last link: 4,247 forcibly disappeared in Raqqa: monitor
"During the battle of ‘Euphrates Anger approximately 2,323 civilians were killed in Raqqa governorate, including 543 children and 346 women (adult female),with most of these people killed at the hands of SDF and International Coalition forces"
This report records only those civilian casualties killed in Raqqa governorate"
The SDF ethnically cleansed more then half of those forcibly disappeared. With the help of the coalition. Think about that? The real ethnic cleansing began when the coalition and their Kurdish cleaners came to take territory- As they raped and pillaged their way through the region.

- US Backed Forces Take Raqqa After ISIS "surrenders"
In closing this extremely long post my hope is that people who read here understand, finally, why it is the the msm and alternative media promotion of the PKK as ‘freedom fighters’ or even "Syrian Kurds" just fighting for justice and autonomy is so offensive. It makes a fool of the masses. It's a lie and it’s always been a lie. This lie, seeded far and wide, served many purposes. - Hide the truth in plain sight- Obfuscate reality. - And, unsurprisingly, it was a very beneficial to Israel narrative. This includes the same alternative media that castigates Israel just enough to garner some degree of credibility, Noam Chomsky style, while covering for a regional remake that greatly benefits Israel. All the while limiting discourse. An alternative media who offer no real alternative to the 5 eyes imperial media. None. They’ve mislead their readers just the same as the main stream media did. They too called these terrorists the bravest fighters against ISIS.They called them "Syrian kurds" when they mostly are not. They presented the annexation and occupation of Syria by the US backed PKK as a least worst option. Better then ISIS. While ignoring Syria's territorial integrity. The role of it's central government in Damascus and International law. That's it for now! I know you're relieved.
