[quote:Anonymous Coward 77882573:MV80MTU3NjE5Xzc1NTQ1Nzg1XzhCNzYxQkQx] You're surprised that a billionaire who is notorious for skipping out on contractors he owed money to is skipping out on the Kurds? Here's a clue. Psychopaths abandon people after their usefulness is done. [/quote]

Kinda sad really Fuck turkey!
This represents a significant shift in US policy - President Trump acting against the advice of many in the Pentagon and state department.
The US says it is stepping aside for an imminent Turkish operation against Kurdish-led forces within Syria that have until now been a key US ally.
Kurdish militias played a major role in defeating the Islamic State (IS) group, but Turkey regards them as terrorists.
The US - which has hundreds of troops in north-eastern Syria - has begun to withdraw them from border areas.
The main Kurdish-led force has condemned the pullout and accused the US of abandoning its fighters.
