After defeating 100% of the ISIS Caliphate, I largely moved our troops out of Syria. Let Syria and Assad protect the Kurds and fight Turkey for their own land. I said to my Generals, why should we be fighting for Syria....

....and Assad to protect the land of our enemy? Anyone who wants to assist Syria in protecting the Kurds is good with me, whether it is Russia, China, or Napoleon Bonaparte. I hope they all do great, we are 7,000 miles away!

This is a remarkable and truly historic episode:#Syria/n Army meets #US troops on a highway as the former move in and the latter move out from #Kobani. No clashes, no nothing, seems like routine traffic.

...do sada je svakako najžustrije reagovao premijer Izraela Benjamin Netanjahu izjavivši: “Izrael najoštrije osuđuje tursku invaziju na kurdske oblasti u Siriji i upozorava na etničko čišćenje Kurda od strane Turske i njenih saveznika. Izrael je spreman da uveća humanitarnu pomoć Izraela galantnom kurdskom narodu”

Gallant or not: How should MPs recognise active service?

In recent weeks, Defence Minister Julian Brazier has revived a time-honoured parliamentary practice of referring to colleagues who have served their country as the "right honourable or honourable gallant member".

DAMASK - Kurdske „Jedinice za zaštitu naroda” preuzele su kontrolu u Ras al-Ajinu posle kontraofanzive pokrenute nakon što su turske trupe i njihovi saveznici zauzeli ovaj pogranični grad 12. oktobra.

To grasp the extent of the crimes the Arab militias fighting for Turkey are carrying out in Syria, read the autopsy of the Kurdish politician executed a few days ago.

“We paid a lot of money for them to fight with us and that’s OK,” the president went on. “They did well when they fought with us they didn’t do so well when they didn’t fight with us.”

At one point, the US president declared the Kurdish insurgents in Turkey (the PKK), strongly linked to Kurdish forces in Syria, were “more of a terrorist threat than Isis”. His remarks closely mirrored Ankara’s talking points, but were starkly at odds with US intelligence and defence assessments which identify Isis as a direct threat to US security.

The president insisted that the US had no business being in the region.

“Syria may have some help with Russia, and that’s fine. It’s a lot of sand,” he said. “They’ve got a lot of sand over there. So there’s a lot of sand that they can play with.

Trump had no words of criticism for Erdoğan or the Turkish military on Wednesday, despite the fact that the administration imposed sanctions on Monday, aimed at forcing an end to the offensive. Those sanctions have been criticised as toothless by members of Congress, who are preparing their own sanctions package.
