How bout we kick out Turkey and admit Finland and Sweden? They were in nato only because we once stationed intermediate range nuke missles there. Their usefulness ended in the 60s.

Kurds will get thrown under the bus. The U.S will backstab them as they always have.

It will also be very useful in the future attempt to wipe Israel off the map too. But will be destroyed. There is a rule that often takes along time to come to pass but is as inevitable as the sunrise. ‘I will bless them that bless you and I will curse them that curse you’.

The US has walked a fine line supporting Kurds outside of Turkey while not supporting Turkish Kurds (PKK).

I read today that any one of the 30 NATO countries can stop a new member.

Sweden, in particular, has a large immigrant community that hails from Turkey.

So large there is little room for ethnic Swedes - those that survive the rape gangs.

How about they spend about 10% of GNP to catch up on their share of military strength.

The N. Syrian Kurds (YPG/YPJ) and later SDF along with their Syriac and Arab counter parts eliminated ISIS with US help.

They paid a large price doing that. I was told they lost 10,000 fighters. We still have a small presence in N.E. Syria in the oil field.

I followed this closely for over 7 years.

The PKK is not what Turkey says they are.

Kurds claim they are all descendant from the Ezidi. N. Syrian Kurds (YPG/YPJ) and an element of PKK saved the Ezidi in Shingal. Otherwise they would have all been killed. Many Kurds died in that battle, but they ran ISIS out.
