                  it is necessary to start delivering heavy weapons and air defense equipment to the Kurds and then they would all have tanks to put them, but only America can do this. America does not want to quarrel with Turkey as a NATO member, although Turks are corrupt and in NATO they are not needed, as in Europe



                  And with these actions, spoil relations with Iran, Turkey, Iraq and Assad, which of course is obliged to us, but support for the Kurds in any form in any country is support for the idea of ​​the United Kurdistan

              the Kurds could not concentrate their energy. they don’t have a single idiology, myth, or a strong enough leader who could unite them.

      Kurdish Communists from the YPG group carried out a massive robbery in the Syrian city of Raqqa, which turned into ruins as a result of fierce bombing by US aircraft and was captured from the Islamic State. Kurds also do not allow locals to return to their homes.

      Local residents report that Kurdish Communists are robbing houses and shops and selling stolen items in the markets of Ain Isa and Rasulain districts.

      According to Anadolu agency, two days ago, residents of the Sabahiya quarter tried to return to their homes, but Kurdish communists did not allow them to do this, and are now engaged in robberies in the quarter.

      A group of Rakka Sessizce Katlediliyor activists previously reported that as a result of US bombings more than 2 thousand civilians were killed, more than 450 thousand people were forced to leave their homes, and 90 percent of Raqqi’s infrastructure was destroyed. According to local sources, the number of civilians killed is an order of magnitude higher.

    Now Erdogad will throw aviation to the aid of Iraqis, and will crush the Kurds in a couple of hours! It’s a paradox, but Erdogad does not need a quick victory over the Kurds, because then the cry “enemy at the gates” loses its meaning, and the Turks do not have a new idea for rallying the nation against an external enemy.

        Iraqi Kurds are of secondary importance to us, but Syrian is a problem. In the course of ours, the left banks of the Euphrates will be left to the Kurds only by the United States and Israel, in exchange for Assad, which is not good for the Shiites of Iran, Syria and Lebanon.

            Do you think that Americans and Jews will allow the Shiite "belt"? The only thing is if they (Shiites) independently regain control of the left bank of the Euphrates, without our VKS.

                Alavites celebrate Christian holidays, and this says a lot.

    The difference in military capabilities is too great. Kurds do not wait for the support of the local population. Talabanists do not support. There is no aviation or heavy equipment or is incomparable with Iraqi. They can dig in their mountains, but they will have to leave Mosul Kirkuk and the Neighborhoods. Now the Iraqis must go to the border of Turkey. Then you can directly trade with Turkey without mediation. They will not be able to finish the barzani to the end, but against the backdrop of the disastrous events of recent days, the barzani clan will vryatli stand, and probably all assets in Kurdistan will be taken. He will have only one thing left to flee to Turkey where he also has assets. Although probably Turkey will not fall the mouth of the barzani, because. Oh influence. X will fall there, but Iran will increase

        They smashed, but not alone, at a rather high price and only when the ISIS themselves turned south. So "it depends", speaking the language of a likely adversary.

        In general, igil passed the Kirzuk Barzani. there really were no fights. there was an agreement as now. with this, the igil secured a reliable rear and unhindered oil transportation through Kurds to Turkey
