Turkey INVADES Syria – tanks and soldiers cross the border
Daily Star Uk ^ | Jan. 21, 2018 | Rachel O'Donoghue

Shocking pictures show dozens of tanks and armoured vehicles crossing over the border in a terrifying display of military might.

But the Syrian-Kurdish YPG militia has denied there is a full-scale invasion underway, claiming forces clashed in Afrin but Turkish soldiers were beaten back.

YPG official, Nouri Mahmoudi, said "all the Turkish military's ground attacks against Afrin have been repelled so far and they have been forced to retreat."

A statement from the militia said: "Our people are holding on to their land and do not accept surrender... we repeat our determination to protect our people in Afrin against the attacks."

Turkey has claimed the massive movement of military hardware into the country is simply to create a 30km-deep "safe zone" in the north of the country.

Thanks, being a Russian bot, I now see the Kurds as terrorists. Oh well, I was getting to like them.

I expect Russkie will turn a blind eye to an incursion to take on the Kurds. When it comes to taking over Syria though, they’ll have to go through Putin.

Dr. Ed Hindson is also of the opinion that Turkey is House of Togarmah - the roots of this thing keep building - you have Iran, Russia and Turkey (just a little) operating in Syria; not far from Israel. Ed also has the same opinion on the land of Magog. A hook in the jaw for Gog of Magog could occur, accidentally. My (slightly updated) post from yesterday:


From approximately 2,600 years ago:

Iran = Persia

Libya = Put or Phut

Turkey = House of Togarmah

Cush = Ethiopia or more likely these days, modern Sudan (not South Sudan)

Ezekiel 38 KJV (KJV phrases)

Verse 8 -> Latter Years

Verse 16 -> Latter Days

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel+38&version=KJV

NOT going to say it’s tomorrow, of course.

BUT it’s no accident a serial Manchurian Candidate liar like Obama gave $150 billion dollars to Iran and Iran is actively working towards nuclear weapons to shoot at Israel. On that day, NK will seem like a minor thing

because (IMHO) it will be the Middle East that eventually sets the world on fire. And somewhere in there, 7 years of false “peace” that divides Israel.

Yes, Turkey and Russia made up. They must be allies when Ezekiel 38 happens some time in the future. Another article says right now they are “friends” but not “allies”.

Yes, it’s The Atlantic - there are other articles on this.

Gulf News says a source in Turkey’s Foreign Ministry told them that Russia green-lighted the Efrin-Op and Erdogan agreed to hand over areas captured from to Assad.

Is this telling the Turks’ OLIVE BRANCH is to the Assad regime? It would see so but I doubt Erdogan will release any area to anyone once they have but control.
