Trump wont change his policy regarding the PKK/YPG since it is an important existential tool for the survival of Israel

Israel has only one real existential tool. USA.

Trump wont change his policy regarding the PKK/YPG since it is an important existential tool for the survival of Israel

Moreover, as long as there is oil in YPG-held areas, there will be more incentive for Trump/Harris to remain in Syria; couple it with the fact that this means that Russia will take Syria if US leaves which wouldn't please the US

Trump is expected to cease support for YPG/PKK.

This is the bible of conservatives. Of course in reality it might not be that easy. The Pentagon and CIA will %100 oppose to this idea.

The paragraph in question:

"Second, the next Administration should build on the Trump
Administration’s diplomatic successes by encouraging other Arab states,
including Saudi Arabia, to enter the Abraham Accords. Related policies
should include reversing, as appropriate, the Biden Administration’s
degradation of the long-standing partnership with Saudi Arabia. The
Palestinian Authority should be defunded. A further key priority is keeping
Türkiye in the Western fold and a NATO ally. This includes a vigorous
outreach to Türkiye to dissuade it from “hedging” toward Russia or China,
which is likely to require a rethinking of U.S. support for YPG/PKK [People’s
Protection Units/Kurdistan Worker’s Party] Kurdish forces, which Ankara
believes are an existential threat to its security. For the foreseeable future—
and much longer than one new Administration—Middle Eastern oil will
play a key role in the world economy. Therefore, the U.S. must continue
to support its allies and compete with its economic adversaries, including
China. Relations with Saudi Arabia should be strengthened in a way that
seriously curtails Chinese influence in Riyadh."

Notice how they themselves call them YPG/PKK .

Let's hope AKP doesn't f*ck it up by yapping too much about Israel...

Side note: oh boy he's trying to get OTS into this: https://www.turkiyetoday.com/turkiy...s-unity-stronger-stance-on-gaza-crisis-75246/

Won't work. Not to mention if he was really serious about it, he would've stopped Azerbaijan's oil going through to Israel. It would've completely destroyed relations but if Palestine matters that much to him...

You are mostly right but let's not forget 1 very important point.

Israel, Republicans are even more pro Israel than Democrats, with the current anti Israel sentiment/policy going on in our country, we may even face harsher conditions than before.

I hope Erdogan stops the popular sentiments for inland politics and start focusing on real geopolitics goals, this is our best chance to finish YPG.

Erdogan does a buyuk filistin rally hours later record trade is announced with Israel.

The man is a politician only uses whatever if it is to his own benefit which is Islam, Ottoman history, Palestine, Conservatives and Ataturk.

How Erdogan reconciles his hostility to Israel with his friendship with the pro-Israeli Trump is unknown to us. But for him, apparently, it is nothing but complete harmony

Erdogan has himself to blame as his Islamists are abandoning him due to Palestine. As they believe his not heavy handed on the issue constantly just talks and barks.

His the one who copted the whole thing just to gain votes. Just like @Mis_TR_Like said he really needs to shut his mouth.

He really uses geopolitics for his own domestic bullshit just so he can get votes. Also show to everybody especially his base that his some Turkish Sipahi who is defending the Muslim Ummah instead his embarassing Turkiye to the whole world including the Islamic World.

Hence why people are laughing at us. Even the Palestinians and the Israelis are laughing at us.

 

[Lool]

Fucking Democrats are arming the PKK to the bone before they leave the Turkish/Syria borders if Trump did fullfill his promise of ceasing support to the PKK/YPG

He has even closer ties to Israel. And now Erdogan positioned himself more anti-Israel than ever. He will also not be able to make an U-turn, as long as israels ethnic cleansing campaign is still ongoing, as that would cost the AKP votes.

Said other institutions opposed the pullback of US troops and are still ardent pkk supporters

Despite the polemics the situation on the field in Syria is very different from what the people see trough the media. In fact what Israel and Turkiye do is overstretching the Iranian supported paramilitary groups so bad that the Lebanese Hezbollah had to pull fighters from Aleppo province to Lebanon and their places were taken by Iranian militia reinforcements plus the 25th Special Task Division (Russian proxy) from the east and the east was reinforced by Iraqi Hezbollah. This all came after Israel supposedly entered Syria some weeks ago.

This means that the Iranians can't reinforce as heavy Tal Rifat and the Aleppo province at all which is playing in our favor. When HTS in Idlib reportedly started preparing forces for an operation on Aleppo then Hezbollah was overstretched and had to reposition forces in Aleppo and Tal Rifat. So you can basically see what Israeli and Turkish threats are doing to the manpower disposition of the Iranian proxies. These threats are pulling away forces SW-->NE and vise versa.

As I said many times the YPG project is born dead. It is just a matter of time until they start cursing at the US again and cry about how they back stabbed them.

If we should be worried about a possible Israeli act I can point at the following scenario:

Assad gets killed, the SAA gets smashed in the south of Syria in Suwayda and Israel, the US supported FSA at the Tanf base and the PKK/YPG starts an operation targeting at getting the control over the south of Damascus, the desert, Tanf and the full control over the Deir ez-Zor province including the Al Bukamal border crossing with Iraq. They can take the whole Jordanian border and Jordan will be happy with it, because the Captagon trafficking will stop or at least will be very limited.

For me this would be a bad scenario that's related to Israel. Bullshit like "the Talmud said this and that" so they will capture whole Syria and are coming for Turkiye is just laughful. Even if they had the manpower and all the political support to do it, the first guys they would have to fight are the PKK... Not even talking about the Baath remnants, angry tribes, the Iranians, Turkiye, even the Taliban if needed. I don't even think its worth mentioning such a thing.

The Israelis are doing their thing, we are doing ours and as long as we are greedy and determined enough YPG will be done. I mean, I can guarantee you that YPG will not exist in the form you see them today, but who knows? They may want to suddenly put the Syrian Arab Army flag on their uniforms and that will be a different story... They have the option.

the US supported FSA at the Tanf base

Isn't that a group of like less than 600 men?

 

[YeşilVatan]

Isn't that a group of like less than 600 men?

IMO, CIA can ramp up those numbers like crazy in two months tops. Maybe airlift SDF affiliated arabs or something.

Intense artillery strikes are being conducted on the Tal Rifat region, which is under the control of the Syrian regime-HRE/PKK terrorist organization, from almost all Turkish Armed Forces bases positioned on the Tel Rifat front line in the Olive Branch and Euphrates Shield operation zones.

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1854599272471076979

In the last couple of days the Regime and PKK/HRE took heavy casualties. Shabiha tried to evacuate 7 bodies after SNA successfully pulled an infiltration on Coberlik (Tal Abyad area), but were targeted by Turkish artillery. They could only evacuate the bodies after the Russians escorted them.

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1854200026924208253

One of the PKK/HRE so called leaders with a code name "Welat", Seyithan Temel was neutralized in a MIT strike on Tal Rifat after the TUSAS attack.

He lost an eye in Ras al-Ayn during Operation Peace Spring, went to Iraq for treatment and returned to Syria.

He was killed in the village of Inab, west of Tal Rifat. He operated in the Zap, Gara, Metina, Hakurk and Sinjar regions of Iraq. He was seriously injured while fighting with ISIS in Sinjar and received treatment in Iraq.

After receiving treatment in Iraq, he moved to northern Syria. He took direct part in the Raqqa and Sirrin operations carried out by the US-backed YPG. He was responsible for the Inab front of Tal Rifat.

 

[Kartal1]

Isn't that a group of like less than 600 men?

Yeah, their number is not so big, but it is enough if the US provides air support for them. Prior to the possible operation they can reinforce a bit the base with an SDF component and Special Forces. Their task would be to defend themselves until IDF and the SDF arrives by land. It is a bit wild scenario, but not impossible. I hope we don't see it happening.

I hope TSK is planning just as wild how it will retake and secure the old location of the Suleyman Sah tomb...

 

[Saithan]

If we can manage to kill minimum 50 personnelle a day that would be really nice. Just anyway possible, they use Russian help to drive corpses away, we target another place and create more corpses for them to come pick up.

SNA Joint Forces targeted joint HRE/PKK-Syrian regime positions in the Tal Rifat region using ammunition dropped from a quadcopter. SNA Joint Forces also targeted a mortar and a BMP-1 ZMA belonging to the Syrian regime stationed in Tal Rifat.

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1854948556442157445

As a result of the Turkish Armed Forces and SNA forces targeting the joint YPG/PKK-Syrian regime point in the village of Safiye, 2 Syrian regime militiamen were neutralized and 3 militiamen were injured.

Civilians in the village of Safiye began to flee the village due to intense artillery fire.
