Well, if I believe this general, they were surprised or outraged or blindsided by whatever the Turks did (and I confess I don’t have the precise hierarchy of the involved players memorized) then they were de facto skunked. Skunked = surprised.
I can’t say what the 0bama admin wants, other than to opine they would like Iran to become the utterly dominant force in the ME. As to whatever happens to the Turks or the Kurds (large or small) or the Peshmerga or the Yazidis or Hezboleh or the Kardashians, he could care less. Valerie Jarret wants Iran to run that part of the world and 0bama does what she says.
Why should anyone be surprised that another podunk country bent Obama over and buggered him? Obama is a little bitch who is going to get his business mashed when he messes with real men.
This is the most pathetic excuse for a weak girly man this nation has ever had in a leadership position. Other countries simply don't give a crap about his "blackness" and they simply don't respect him because he's a P***Y.
Obama has no other trick than playing his "blackness" and when that doesn't work, he's screwed.
ISIS IS A CREATION OF THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT ANDB IS USED AS ITS STALKING HORSE
Weak President+
House and Senate leaders worried only about their power and money=
No cohesive foreign policy.
This has to be feigned outrage because if it is not we are in deep doo doo. If this is an example of “Military Intelligence in the age of Obama we are ripe to be taken down hard.
You are assuming it wasn’t purposeful on Obola’s part.
Yes I am, for the simple reason that Obama is an incompetent fool, and very little that he actually attempts to do works out the way he planned.
Biggest screw up in history.
Turkiye is not, in principle, opposed to Daesh or the Caliphate. Istanbul is the “natural seat” of the Caliphate. Erdogan is going to let ISIS establish a functioning caliphate with a stable territory then he means for Turkiye to abscond with it to Istanbul. After the first three Caliphs, the Caliph ceased to rule but was the spiritual head of Islam or that part of Islam that didn’t set up other caliphs. In a Caliphate the Sultan rules but the Caliph takes ceremonial precedence and has the final say in things religious. The Caliph doesn’t upset the Sultan that administers the Caliphate ad the Sultan doesn’t have him strangled as he routinely would his minions who screw up or displease hijm.
Kurdish news.

Colonel North laid out whom we should be helping out over there including the Kurds.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Why were they surprised? What did they expect? Turks are racist pigs. Now they are Jihadists too. Obama must have known this would happen. He is a racist jihadi too.
A senior US official has accused Turkey of pulling a bait-and-switch by using a recent anti-Islamic State agreement with the US as a “hook” to attack the Kurdish PKK in northern Iraq, The Wall Street Journal reports.
“It’s clear that ISIL was a hook,” the senior military official told The Journal, referring to the Islamic State (aka ISIS, ISIL, or Daesh).
“Turkey wanted to move against the PKK, but it needed a hook.”

But was it a wink and a nod?
Reminiscent of when we allowed the Iraqis the use of airspace to evacuate their personnel from Kuwait at the end of SWA I. Instead they used it to gas the Kurds.
Last week General Ray Odierno retired after 39 years in the Army and on his way out said President Obama has never spoken directly with him about a plan to defeat ISIS.
