BREAKING: White House Reaches Deal With Turkey to Free Jailed US Pastor Andrew Brunson

Finally, after an excruciatingly long wait of almost two years, it appears the incarceration of United States pastor Andrew Brunson will finally come to an end. According to NBC News, the White House has brokered a deal to secure Brunson’s freedom:

The White House expects North Carolina pastor Andrew Brunson to be released by the Turkish government and returned to the U.S. in the coming days, two years after he was detained, according to two senior administration officials and another person briefed on the matter.

Under an agreement senior Trump administration officials recently reached with Turkey, Brunson is supposed to be released after certain charges against him are dropped at his next court hearing, currently scheduled for Friday, the senior administration officials and a person briefed on the matter said.

The details of the deal are unclear, but those familiar with the discussions said it includes a commitment by the U.S. to ease economic pressure on Turkey.

The White House, however, isn’t spiking the football and celebrating just yet. They are cautiously awaiting until Brunson gets home before any congratulations are issued. According to the NBC report, Trump administration officials aren’t “fully confident” that Turkey will actually go through with the agreement.

I’m wondering if the Saudi fiasco with the supposed murder of that reporter might not be coming into play here.

We’re pissed if they did actually do what Turkey accused them of, supposedly there are recordings of his torture and murder now from Turkey intelligence. That is possibly a big reason Turkey was so forceful in their accusations against S.A., and having us not jump to back them as our ally in the middle east right now could come with a bonus.

Erdogan wants to try and smooth things out with Trump IMHO, he can say all he wants that they don’t need us but their markets say otherwise. This is leverage, Quid Pro Que both with easing tensions and keeping us out of the diplomatic fight coming between them and S.A. The timing is just too perfect to not suspect ulterior motives here.

Just my two cents, YMMV

BREAKING: White House Reaches Deal With Turkey to Free Jailed US Pastor Andrew Brunson

Partner, this is great news and a great Christian American pastor will finally be coming home.

The topic of Turkey, the Ottoman Turks, the Mooselimbs, Armenia Genocide, Obama, Christian Values, true Christians and Greece all in one large topic.

The Mooselimbs (Ottoman Turks) took over what once was part of Greece. The Orthodox Christian Church headquarters is now in Istanbul which used to be called Constantinople.

This Erdogan guy (PM of Turkey) is one piece of work Mooselimb!

Turkey does not want to apologize for the "Genocide that Moolimbs in Turkey committed against the Christian country of Armenia and Christian Armenians!!!" Yes, is was a "Genocide of Christian Armenians" you moron Turkish Mooselimbs!!!

They must have something in the "Koran" which are a bunch of Satanic Verses as far as we are concerned that tell Mooselimbs they will not say it was "Genocide of Christian Armenians and Armenia is a Christian country which is surrounded by Mooselimb Sh## Hole countries.

I am getting so upset at writing these above sentences that I want to personally do a "General Black Jack Pershing Style Execution of Mooselimbs with Bullets soaked in pigs Blood."

One more time, Mohammad hung around the Jewish population for 2 years and finally decides to start the Mooselimb religion and in doing so, he copied or pilfered all of the Jewish faith customs and traditions and incorporated them into the Mooselimb faith. This Mooselimb Religion is a "Gutter Religion" as one Freeper called it.
