Exactly. Turkey stopped being an ally when the Kemalists were removed from power. They’ve thrown their lot with Islam, so why should we object to the Kurds finally gaining freedom for their homeland?

Turkish foreign ministry just announced no US Air strikes will be permitted from any NATO airbase in Turkey. And remember that a lot of the mess that Iraq became resulted from Turkey’s refusal to allow 4 AD to launch from Turkey. So the only US forces in the north of Iraq were special forces and the reinforced battalion of the 173 Bde. Also The UK and Germany will not mount strikes on Syria. Barky really did his homework before making this speech.

Because the Kurds obtained this "homeland" though mass murder.
