This subject is being largely ignored. The truth about what Turkey is doing must be revealed. We know, but seem to hope it will simply go away. It won't.
The decisions about how to organize and govern Northern Syria should be made by Syrians.
The US and the Coalition is there to help the SDF end ISIS and allow life to resume again without the Terrorists. Unfortunately Turkey has transplanted many ISIS, al Qaeda and other foreign terrorists into the region they invaded called Efrin.
Here is a list of articles about portions of the forum that have already taken place. Note times there are about 8-9 hours ahead of CT in the US.

I was using 2 sources, got the source name wrong. It should have been:
ANHA Harwar News (link is correct)
When does it start in America? More important; when do whites get scrubbed from the world? Oh yes, already started, using Christians as a cover story because, you know, Muslims love Jews and Christians so much they want to send them/us to heaven as soon as possible.
Why are we not in a world war with these people who are trying to wipe us from the face of the planet?
I don’t have a simple answer.
It is very clear what Erdogan is. Even before Erdogan in power, Turkey has oppressed it minorities. Since Modern Turkey’s founding at the end of WWI, they practiced genocide. But also during the Ottoman Empire.
Others in ME are not so clear. Deception is an integral part of some ME nations. Others appear pretty reliable in business and to outsiders.
Here is the Twitter account that is posting about the events of the meeting. I hope the meeting is all being recorded and can be broadcast later.
