Thing is, they seem to have Washington calling the “time out.”
This administration is supplying isis through Trukey and the Saudis. All that oil is trucked from the Isis held oil fields to Turkey. Turkeys presidents son is the lead man on that. The Saudis are financing it and most likely greasing this administartions palms to hold off the rest as long as they can.
That is why they dont want the Russians in there because of the oil revenue that could be had by transporting oil through Syria to the ports in Turkey so they dont have to go around Africa. They need to get rid of Assad and Putin needs to stop it because it takes the monopoly away from Russia in regs to Europe.
Much as anyone hates to admit it. Trump is right on that one. The financing (banks) are a big key and the Saudis are in the front lines.
