I have been unable to keep up
with the confusing developments
in Turkey
but I noticed on another thread
reports that the US is planning
to provide Stinger missiles to the Kurds.

Is this really true??

Can you provide a link to this story?

If the story is true
then someone in the US has gone mad.

It leaked out of the Turkish general staff last week. It would be a bonanza if I could find decent documentation.

I have seen articles where Kurds asked for heavy weapons, and that US officials were contemplating the proper timing.

According to Turkish news reports, the US delegation would not only not agree to not distribute these, but would not agree to collect them after the war, nor agree to even providing Turkey with an accounting of what had and would be distributed.

That's enough to vote no, IMO.
