Congrats Donald J. Trump and the Turkish lobby in DC. Turkey has created a safe haven for radicals in N. #Syria Abu Yaqub, a well-known #ISIS operative, was seen wandering in the center of Rajo district of #Afrin countryside afrinpost.net/en/2019/11/abu…

2/Also, isn't #Idlib the largest #AlQaeda (and fellow travelers) safe haven since 9/11/2001? And #Turkey is the sheriff on duty dealing with Idlib. Why aren't these #Turkish drone assets being used against these groups in N/W #Syria? Does the US-led Coalition not care about that?

After expelling majority of Kurds, looting almost all the shops and houses in this Kurdish district of Tel Abyad, Turkish-backed mercenaries are now attempting to displace the remaining Kurdish population from their homes by random explosions in civilian areas.

Turkish forces launched attacks with tanks, artillery and a large number of mercenaries on several axis to invade Ain Issa since the morning. The cease-fire agreement is once again being violated by Turkish army.

While Turkey and their proxies continue to attack Ain Issa in violation of the supposed ceasefire and inch closer to Kobani, here's Kajin, a YPG fighter from Kobani (who has been wounded 3x fighting ISIS in Kobani, Afrin, and Manbij) on the US' withdrawal:

Turkey was able to circumvent a US export ban on killer drones with the help of a missile component first developed in the UK, allowing Ankara to become an emerging power in the lethal technology, which experts warn is dangerously proliferating theguardian.com/news/2019/nov/…

The Foreign Relations Committee just voted to sanction Turkey for attacking our Syrian Kurdish allies, which has given new oxygen to ISIS. I’ve been fighting for action since day one and will continue to push McConnell to stop covering for Trump + Erdogan—and allow a full vote.

My colleague Hevrin Khalaf would have attended the European Parliament today. But she couldn't, because militants armed and sent by Turkey's Army invaded northern Syria and pulled her out of her car and murdered her.

Quick thread / update on the still unfolding consequences of Trump’s appeasing Erdogan while asking for absolutely nothing in return. Two weeks ago, recall, Trump feted Erdogan at the WH for no apparent reason. Since then, what's happened?

1. Erdogan again threatened to repopulate the border region in NE Syria with over one million Syrians not native to the area (a process that has reportedly already begun). reuters.com/article/us-syr…

2. Erdogan called on Muslims to “unite against the west” at the very moment Turkey is hosting US-designated-terrorist Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas in Istanbul. jpost.com/Middle-East/Er…

3. Turkey concluded a Mediterranean "sea grab" with the beleaguered GNA of Libya absent any consultation and in direct conflict with NATO ally Greece and U.S. allies Israel and Egypt. reuters.com/article/us-tur…

4. Erdogan provided an immediate briefing on NATO meetings to Vladimir Putin. (Kremlin readout: “The Turkish president briefed Vladimir Putin on his meetings at the recent NATO summit in London.”) x.com/KremlinRussia_…

5. After which, Turkey denied it had approved NATO defensive plans for eastern Europe, plans Turkey has held hostage until NATO's 28 other allies declare the Kurdish YPG a terrorist organization (which NATO won’t do). stripes.com/news/europe/tu…

8. And … Turkey once again threatened to kick the U.S. out of Incirlik airbase in the event Washington chooses to push back on Turkey's purchase of Russian missiles and longstanding pattern of conduct SECDEF rightly calls "spinning out of NATO's orbit." dailysabah.com/diplomacy/2019…

The US Senate adopted a resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide. This is a clear message that genocide campaigns are not possible in the 21st century. This decision will stop Turkey from committing massacres against the Kurdish people and stop its invasion of Rojava.
