Great Report on the joint US and Kurd Special Ops capture of the Tabqah Dam and surrounding towns. This attack involved 5 helicopters for the assault.

Very high praises to some brave bad ass soldiers. What a well coordinated effort.

It will send Erdogan into further fits of rage. It’s time his military retires him.

But we should never understate the bravery of Kurdish women. They were the saviors of Kobani. US Air Force did their part but it was an extremely desperate situation on 10-11-12 October 2014.

But they held and later some outside Kurdish forces came to help and they Killed ISIS there.

He chopped the heads of the best of them already.

Took them up on a high bridge and cut their heads off.

Enough said?

The Newroz Raid can go down in the annals of the history of the Kurdish Special Forces.

This will be a great story to tell the Grandkids.

Now on to clear the town, and cut the strategic Highway 4.

Kobani already legendary.

Newroz Raid will be right there with it.

And bravery of Kurds is ancient.

Don’t know but Erdogan is sounding a lot like ISIS operative.

Like to see the EU gather their collective balls and make it emphatic. No membership for Turkey with Erdogan in office.

He has long been know as “Erdogan the Islamist”.

AND Obama promised him he could have his 2nd Ottoman Empire and his Califate. Long may that haunt Obozo.
