Turkey vows to expand operation against Kurds in Syria
[DAWN] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire....
vowed on Monday to expand its operation in northern Syria to other Kurdish-held areas after its troops and allied forces seized control of the city of Afrin in a major blow to the Kurds.

A day after Ottoman Turkish-led forces entered the city virtually unopposed, President Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...
said the fight would now be taken to other Kurdish areas of northern Syria.

"We will continue this process until we entirely eliminate this corridor, including in Manbij, Ayn al-Arab, Tal Abyad, Ras al-Ayn and Qamishli," said the Ottoman Turkish leader, in a characteristically bullish mood.

Syria’s civil war entered its eighth year this week with heavy fighting on two fronts ‐ around Afrin and in the rebel enclave of Eas­tern Ghouta near Damascus.

In Afrin, the Kurdish Peo­ple’s Protection Units (YPG) could do little when Syrian Arab fighters backed by NATO
...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A cautionary tale of cost-benefit analysis....
’s second-largest army thrust into the city on Sunday.

The fighters, mostly former rebels who fought Pre­sident Bashir al-Assad, celebrated their victory by des­troying the statue of Kur­dish hero Kawa and looting shops and other property. The pillaging drew widespread condemnation, inclu­ding from Syrian oppo­­­s­­ition groups supporting the Tur­kish intervention.

Is it Kosher to mix Turkey and Curds?

#1 Afrin evacuation. “She saw lots of women who were pregnant and had miscarriages on the road. She was so overwhelmed that she couldn’t talk anymore and she started to cry. She told me, ‘I cannot explain to you what I saw.’

When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation' standing where it does not belong flee to the mountains. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! (A similarity of Mark 13)

#2 What we are seeing is a historic upheaval of what can be referred to as the raging sea of mankind. Even NATO Supreme Leader of Norway only 1 week ago supported Islamist State Leader Erdogan with NATO Germany and NATO Britain inking more arms deals to his Islamic expansionist designs. It is as if the once free and decent West is now fully under the control of aggressive Satanic forces.
