The big winner will be the Syrian People. Now, the US needs to vacate the terrorist training camp at Al Tanf

I am reasonably sure that Russia has been given the “go-ahead” by State” to do what they need to do to southern Turkey! Russia is no WAY OVER EXTENDED!!!

First Putin arms the Turks. Now he’s going to fight them?

The Kurds will learn that Assad and the Russians are like the U.S. - friends of convenience, that is friends to the Kurds while it is convenient to Assad and/or Russia, but that will end once being friends to the Kurds is no longer needed. The Kurds will get “protection” from Assad, until Turkey is out of the picture in Syria and Assad can go back to oppressing them on his side of the border.

The winners among the Kurds will be the most radical elements, as more moderate leaders are disgraced.

The PKK did not come out of a vacuum of true grievances.

Go back to oppress them? When were they oppressed?

“Go back to oppress them? When were they oppressed?”

Ask a Kurd if you need to. Otherwise don’t ask about what is obvious to a Kurd.

after they were abandoned by Donald Trump.

editorialize much? It's not like the Kurds are in Northern Maine or something.

Russia's not in NATO. It's in a better more independent position to deal with Turkey forcefully.

I'm not all that sad about ISIS and other terrorists at the mercy of Iranian, Russian, and Syrian militaries. It's beginning to sound like the SDF hasn't been real eager to give up its financial support and weaponry which the US gave them.

Well we were replaced after a long agonizing few hours..

This path could have happened half a trillion dollars ago with the same outcome... The people running the deep state won’t have places to sell their speeches now that the suckers know they can’t buy American blood anymore.
