Go watch the interview with the General discussing the psyop to create “Good” Syrian Kurds.

These are PKK, the bad Turds.

PER WIKI

According to United States Army Special Forces Commander General Raymond A. Thomas at the Aspen Security Forum in July 2017, the SDF is a PR-friendly name for the YPG, which Thomas personally suggested because the YPG is considered an arm of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is designated as a terrorist group by the Federal government of the United States.[111][112]

American Defense Secretary Ashton Carter confirmed “substantial ties” between the PYD/YPG and the PKK.[113] Testifying to the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee Congress, Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats, the top U.S. intelligence official, explicitly defined the YPG as the “PKK’s militia force in Syria”.[114][115]

The history of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party began in 1974 as a Marxist–Leninist organization under the leadership of Abdullah Öcalan.

In 1978 the organization adopted the name “Kurdistan Workers Party” and waged Urban War between 1978–1980. The organization restructured itself and moved the organization structure to Syria between 1980–1984 just after the 1980 Turkish coup d’état. The campaign of armed conflict began in 1984.

The rural-based insurgency lasted between 1984–1992. The PKK shifted its activities to include urban attacks against Turkish military bases between 1993–1995 and later
