If the game is to create a Kurd-state out of the northern quarter of Syria...then you’d have to admit to nation-building and that’s not the job of the US (or for that matter France). Once ISIS was put down as a threat, the US should pack up and leave.
The nation building continues in ajacent former Iraq
France is amending it’s error in 1918 dismantling the Ottoman empire
“If the game is to create a Kurd-state out of the northern quarter of Syria...then youd have to admit to nation-building and thats not the job of the US (or for that matter France)”
Another question to ask might be what gives us (or France), or anyone else the legal right to dismember Syria...
...not that we could anyway, with Turkey, Iraq, and Iran not about to let the Kurds get their state.
