Turks are going to lie. And push the envelope and see if there is a response.
Economic means are not going to stop this.
Trump thinks the Kurds want a battle with Turkey, they may at some level.
Erdogan is not like any other Turk leader, he is 100% behind the terrorists.
The sooner we admit this this better for everyone. There will be no moderation from him.
Appeasement is a huge mistake. He is as bad as Iran in some ways.
Headshake.
I’ve been watching the ANF feed the past few days, the Leftism is up a tick. Not sure if that is coming only from the mountain or if it has filtered into Syrian forces (I doubt it, but it is possible).
Betrayal for the Kurds is a big thing, they have lots of past experience.
It is very quiet from my normal sources. They know what I’m struggling with but what is happening in Syria is deeply troubling too.
Yet he considers the Kurds to be terrorists because they are seeking their own nation. Since many of them are actually in Turkey, this is a threat to Erdogan.
