if this is true, then Trump picked the wrong side.

Erdogan is an Islamist. What can he offer in return? The only thing I can think of is a promise not to send more “immigrants” into Europe. And we all know what that promise is worth.

On the other hand, the Kurds have a history of protecting Christians. Other than Israel, the Kurds are the only good guys in the region. Why are we abandoning them?

I had to look for this story. Saw it on the crawl at OANN network last night. Hopping it wasn’t true. Seems it might be.

This only makes sense if Ttump has better information about what's going on over there than is generally being reported
Maybe the Syrian Kurds aren't very gracious winners and have their own ethnic cleansing goals in their liberated areas
Maybe they are too willing to live with Assad and have lost deep state favor
There is a logic here but we are not seeing it

They also have a history of killing Christians en-masse.
As for Erdogan he is also a leader or a NATO ally. Iraq is an ally too. Syria and Armenia are Russia’s ally. Iran is a powerful independent power.
Kurdish ambitions is to carve these nations and they never said it has to be peaceful.
The war with ISIS which was an excuse to arm the Kurds is nearly over.
What for would you give them weapons if not to turn it against the countries mentioned above?
