Kerry can send in James Taylor.

Obama can draw another line.

When Hillary gets in next week they will be too afraid to start a war.

Great foreign policy. What do you expect from a bunch of pedophile sex perverts.

I’m not liking the implications of Turkey going after the Kurds.

I hope the Kurds kick their ass.

Wasn’t there also supposed to be near war between India and Pakistan a few days ago? The whole continent is going up in flames thanks to that evil cow hitlery, dumba$$ obama, and the low wattage Kerry.

Poorly equipped light infantry versus combined arms on flat, barren land. I suppose they can dig.

I detest Erdogan’s Turkey. Will NATO support this outrage was well?

Thanks. Europe is so far gone, who knows.

They’ve brought brutal life and death blackmailers into their midst. They are very vulnerable.

So, the Turks drive into Iraq, and then get caught between the Kurds to the north and the Iraqis and Shiites (Iranians) to the south. Their only hope would be Erdogan’s Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS buddies. I think the Russians and Assad might sit this one out, or use the distraction to push back the rebels, ISIS, and al-Nusra(al-Qaeda).

This is starting to look too much like all those Balkan conflicts just before WWI.

I have a Pastor friend who spent time with the Kurds on mission.

He became very fond of the people.

He wrote a book on the Kurds, or as he referred to them as the Medes. It’s called the “Children of the Magi.”

The Kurds used to be known as the Medes. Some people are familiar with the short phrase the Medes and the Persians. (The Kurds and Iran)

Its Turk-Kurd bullcrap, not strictly Sunni-Shiite.
Or rather, the Shiites are tangentially involved.
Actually, I think the Turks may really intend to save their ISIS pals.

They have to pass through Kurdistan first, before getting to Shiite Iraq.
