do we even know how many "sides" are really fighting in Syria right now?


I heard on NPR a few months ago that at one point US had some special forces assisting the Kurds. Then the Kurds were attacked by the Turks. In effect, our troops were then fighting alongside our Kurdish allies against our NATO Turkish allies. It's so awesome.

Turkey being in NATO is one of the biggest worries about all of this

it's more of a hypothetical threat, but it can easily be used to manufacture some real "shite just got real" scenarios

this somewhat keeps Russia neutered, but a false flag or 2 could really get shite boiling

To make matters even more complicated, our government considers the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) a terrorist organization.
