If we were supporting the good guys, why are the Kurds aligning with Russia?
The Kurds will align with whoever is strongest. USA is now a greatly weakened power in the region and we are too close with Turkey, at least under Obama.
Kurds just captured a village with US/coaltion help.

KKP (Communist Party of Kurdistan) is still very strong among some Kurds and they have always followed Moscow.
