Egypt has also voiced opposition to the Turkish state’s invasion operation against Afrin Canton of Northern Syria.

The Foreign Ministry of Egypt condemned the Turkish state’s “unacceptable” attack on Afrin, calling it an intervention against and violation of Syrian lands.

In a statement about the operation, the Foreign Ministry pointed out that Turkey negatively affected the political efforts for the ending of terror in Syria, saying; “The attitude of Egypt towards military methods is clear as attacks against our Syrian brothers and sisters are increasing.”

On the other hand, Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, Frants Klintseviç stated that “Russia will ask Turkey to end its operation on Afrin at the United Nations.”

In a Facebook post about the invasion attempt, top Russian official Konstantin Kosaçev said; “Disturbing news are coming from Syria. The “Anti-terrorist operation” announced by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan causes nothing but concern.”

The Turkish ruler supported the Muslim Brotherhood government of Mohammed Morsi that the Egyptian military had to get rid of.

ISIS forced out leaving a power vacuum behind.

The Syrian Army is depleted and divided between Kurds in the North and Muslims (non-Kurds?) in the South.

Turkey sees an opportunity to slap down the Kurds who have been making trouble in Turkey (they want their own state). Maybe Syria doesn't mind so much hosting the Turkish tanks, as long as they're only shooting at the Kurds.

I think all these people know how to do is make war. When their outfit is defeated, they defect to the winning side and make some more war on somebody else.

Their leaders are either sadistic bloody tyrants ruling with an iron fist, or quickly dispatched by sadistic bloody tyrants.

There's no history of representative democracy, only force and subjugation to whoever has the most soldiers and guns.

And this new violence will only spawn another wave of wild-eyed refugees.

Where do you get your news?

Who do you think killed ISIS (not forced out)?

Turkey is a serial practicer of Massacres and Genocide. Has never admitted a single case. Not ever. (Jewish, Greek, Armenian, Alevi, Assyrian Christian, Ezidi)

Turkey is an uninvited invader in Iraq and in Syria. Erdogan is an Islamist Dictator. Who has Neo Ottoman wet dreams.

Not once have the Syrian Kurds attacked Turkey. Not ever. Certainly not the Efrin community, which includes hundreds of thousands of displaced persons. Many Ezidi, Alevi and Christian elements.

This is not about killing Terrorists, it is about killing Kurds because Erdogan hates them. They stand in the way of his dream of being the Sultan of the Middle East. The Ottoman empire died in 1914. It will never be again. Period.

There is a long history of Kurds living and working with Arabs and Christians. The Syrian Kurds are nothing like you describe. I have very close friends there. I’ve know them for years.

You could not be more wrong about them. Or more wrong about Erdogan the Islamist who harbors escaped ISIS and embraces the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorists and Nusra (al Quaeda) Terrorists.

I know about this, have watched it for years.

top Russian official Konstantin Kosaçev said;
"yes, you've probably never heard of me, but the joker who wrote this article seemed to think I was important."

Back when Mubarak was removed and Morsi installed by allies Iran and the Obama White House, Erdogan supported the move. When Morsi fell, Erdogan blew his gasket, as did the Iranian mullahcracy, but Assad welcomed Morsi's downfall.

In the 1ith century, hordes of horse mounted savages called “turks” started pouring out of the wastes of central Asia. They proceeded to murder, enslave, plunder and rape their way across Asia Minor, through the Mediterranean and into the Balkans.

They took everything and contributed nothing.

Its about time they all get rounded up and sent back to Kirgystan, Turkistan and Uzbekistan where they belong.
Give Asia Minor back to its rightful occupants - Greeks, Armenians, Kurds, etc.
