Yazidis, a historically persecuted non-Muslim people in the Middle East, are yet again fleeing for their lives this time from Turkey-backed jihadists invading Afrin in northern Syria.
Murad Ismael, executive director of Yazda, a relief organization for Yazidi victims of genocide, has alerted the world to the deadly threat posed by Turkish airstrikes many times on his social media accounts and on March 12 wrote on Twitter:
"We are evaluating what to do when the [whole] city falls, including an option to ask our people to leave the region altogether. We cannot have our people in Afrin under Al Nusra and other fundamentalists."

Toğrul has also been very critical of Turkey's invasion of Afrin. On March 7, during a session at Turkey's parliament, he criticized President Erdogan over his stated aim to carry out a demographic change in Afrin by sending Syrians in Turkey to Afrin. When Toğrul called this attempt by Erdogan an "ethnic cleansing," MPs of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) physically attacked him.
Toğrul later described the incident: "About 40 of them started coming towards us in a frenzy. They began punching me and my friends. I fell to the ground, and they continued to kick me. I was seriously beaten."
The Turkish government with the help of the jihadists openly targets and violates civilians in Afrin and beats up an opposition MP who calls for non-violence in the region.
Has NATO become so ineffective and weak that it cannot do anything to stop these atrocities?

Has NATO become so ineffective and weak that it cannot do anything to stop these atrocities?
Turkey has graduated to become a Mortal Enemy of Western Civilization, their historic place in the world.
The entire nation should be razed, and every single one of its leaders killed.
Then give it back to the Byzantine Empire.
So when Turkey is not killing the Kurds they’re killing Yazidis?
Turkey needs to be immediately dumped from NATO. They’ve become a terrorist state.
Would not be doing if Putin did not give Turkey the go ahead to the most potent force against ISIS, so whose side is Russia and the Regime really on?
“Here is the headline: The Turks could not have made their move into Afrin without a green light from Putin.
Russia controlled the airspace over Afrin. The Russians had a few hundred observers inside Afrin. Moscow pulled out its forces, withdrew its air cover, and let Turkey advance in order to poke a finger in Americas eye.
What has Putin achieved? He has weakened the U.S. alliance with the Kurds by demonstrating that Washington would not aid Kurdish forces imperiled in Afrin. He has weakened NATO, by setting up Turkish troops for a possible conflict with American forces.”

would not be happening if McCrazy and co hadnt sent a few billion in arms to his jihadi buddies in syria
Wouldn’t be happening if Bush had invaded Syria too, in the first place, since Al Qaeda and Assad are linked, wouldn’t be happening if the US had clobbered Syria in the first place after helping kill 250 of our own Marines.
Putin, the ship-head has given Turkey the go-ahead against the most potent force against ISIS, the Kurds.
Oh, boy, McCrazy, you sure know what you are talking about.
assad has been fighting the jihadists for a lot longer than we have
Turkey = ISIS
Yes. Erdogan is ISIS.
Erdogan wants to be the next Islamic Ottoman Caliph.
Where women have no rights.
“” “” Erdogan wants to be the next Islamic Ottoman Caliph.”” “”
I believe his chances are very slim at this point. Turks historically tend to overplay their hand.
The guy in a yellow demolition machine is Erdogan:

That’s hilarious. Why am I laughing?
Because it is hilarious. That’s the Middle East in a nutshell.

A good portion of the EU is also NATO.
This presents a problem for the EU to mull over while having their coffee and beer.
