"Kobani, you have to step back and understand the strategic objective"
Yes, he acts for the O_tard. Who clearly still supports the Islamists.
Treachery at the highest level, over an oil play for Islamist Turkey.
Total Headshake.
Shameful.
Nothing surprises me anymore....
The Kurds will remember this.
Look, all they care about is getting rid of Assad so that the caliphate can be completed.
That is the “secret deal”.
The poor Kurds will get no help. Neither will the Christians.
How is secret? It is happening in plain sight. Anyone who has a functioning medulla oblongata can see Obama doesn’t give a damn about innocent people.
This is the foreign policy equivalent of telling the dying old lady to take a pain pill.
And the media applauds.
This is very, very wrong. If there’s karmic retribution, I hope I don’t share in it.
The real question is what will be the US position once ISIS achieves dominance and the caliphate?
They remind me of the Israelis of today and the Americans of long ago.
Our stinking rotten administration loves the double cross
Islamic State’s ammunition shown to have origins in US and China
In its campaign across northern Syria and Iraq, the jihadist group Islamic State has been using ammunition from the United States and other countries that have been supporting the regional security forces fighting the group, according to new field data gathered by a private arms-tracking organization.
The data, part of a larger sample of captured arms and cartridges in Syria and Iraq, carries an implicit warning for policymakers and advocates of intervention.
It suggests that ammunition transferred into Syria and Iraq to help stabilize governments has instead passed from the governments to the jihadists, helping to fuel the Islamic State’s rise and persistent combat power. Rifle cartridges from the United States, the sample shows, have played a significant role.
“The lesson learned here is that the defence and security forces that have been supplied ammunition by external nations really don’t have the capacity to maintain custody of that ammunition,” said James Bevan, director of Conflict Armament Research, the organization that is gathering and analysing weapons used by the Islamic State.
Providing weapons to the regional proxies, Bevan added, is “a massive risk that is heightened by poorly motivated security forces that are facing great challenges.”
I’ve been reading related articles on other sites. Seems like both the Turks and the Saudis want ISIS to grow large enough to take out Assad and act as a check against Iran and Hezbollah. In turn, the Saudis will drive down the price of oil so that Russia suffers. None of these players like the Kurds, they will be be thrown to the ISIS wolves.
Just like Warsaw in WW2 when the soviets stopped and waited for the NAzis to clean out the city before coming in.
Bastards!
Kurdish memories are long. Add this treachery to the list of things we are leaving our kids to deal with..
This is even worse than Neville Chamberlain selling out to Hitler.
Since Obola is an agent of the Saudis, this makes perfect sense.
Obola is almost certainly an Indonesian citizen, an illegal alien. He is certainly a Marxist and a Muslim terrorist.
Obama is evil.
Fixed it.
The only ones besides Israel in the middle east who are friendly to the west has to be destroyed,why am I not surprised
