Here it comes: Syria

[ORAC]

Well it looks like Trump is throwing the Kurds to the wolves.

If if you have been keeping up with the press in the last few days, Turkey has been massing troops getting ready for a large attack on the remaining Kurdish held area in north-eastern Syria, and presumably also Iraq around the oilfield areas Turket has always considered they lost unfairly in the Treaty of Lausanne.

There are many US troops embedded with the Kurds and there were fears Turkish and US troops could end up in combat.

Well Trump has just announced that “ISIS has been defeated”, and all US troops are being pulled up with immediate effect.
