Erdogan dismisses pledges over weapons for Kurds in Syria
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan dismissed on Sunday as a trick a reported U.S. promise that weapons supplied to the Kurdish YPG militia in northern Syria would be returned after the defeat of Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... "The ones who think they are tricking ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... by saying they are going to get back the weapons that are being given to this terrorist organization will realise that they are making a mistake eventually," Erdogan said in a speech in Istanbul. He said Ankara would hold to account any party which supplied arms to the YPG if "any bullet is fired into Turkey". Posted by: trailing wife 2017-06-26 |
