ANKARA - Turkey and its Syrian rebel allies have launched their military operation into northeastern Syria, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday, adding that the offensive aimed to eliminate a “terror corridor” along the southern Turkish border. Erdogan said the offensive, dubbed “Operation Peace Spring”, would aim to eliminate threats from the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia and the Islamic State militants, and enable the return of Syrian refugees in Turkey after the formation of a “safe zone” in the area.
“Our mission is to prevent the creation of a terror corridor across our southern border, and to bring peace to the area,” Erdogan said on Twitter. “We will preserve Syria’s territorial integrity and liberate local communities from terrorists.”
He is to enter Iraq after taking the Syrian territory. Iraqi oils are not refugered Turkish opposition.
Syrian rebels= ISIS
Where are the human rights organizations. Where is the United Nations Association to stop this terrorist Erdokhan? And he should be arrested and tried as a war criminal.
Rebel allies? You mean terrorists. Just say the word and stop using the cute and cuddly term rebel.
Liar ,supporting ISIS to reorganise
15 million Kurds living inside Turkey. Istanbul the capital of biggest Kurdish population and In 1990-1991 Iraq-Kuwait war 1million Kurds fled from the war (Saddam and) took refuge in Turkey.
Little Don Trump Sat on his Rump Consigning the Kurds to die Came a dictator Only moments later And paid Liddle’ Donnie to lie Liddle' Don Trump Sat on his Rump Selling our freedom away With blood on his small hands Said, “I can’t find that Kurd lands On the big map anyway.”
This thing was much bigger than White House or Pentagon could have prevented. It was unavoidable.
PKK / YPG 🔜 💀
Down with Erdogan! Victory to the kurdish resistance!
Military AND civilian positions targeted report Kurds. This is POTUS Trump's legacy, make no mistake. Man's a global nightmare.
Operation was to create a 'safe zone' cleared of Kurdish militias ( PKK/PYD/YPG/SDG) which will also house Syrian refugees.

Khalifa of the terrorist groups in the world not President, Syrian rebel or terrorist groups supported by Ankara
Trump is okay with Turkey slaughtering allied Kurdish fighters if it detracts from the story of Trump being okay with Russia slaughtering allied Ukrainian fighters. This is what the GOP tolerates.
To exterminate as many Kurds as they can. Genocide Syria
But Trump tower is safe and still making the Trumps millions, so I guess that’s something to cling to as our allies get massacred. I swear the US will be it’s own undoing. We’re so afraid of others harming us, but we are our own worst enemy.
Europeans colonized the world! Let, the colonizer sacrifice the BLOOD of their offspring to maintain Western Civilization! Blackmen Africa Ethiopia Eritrea EquatorialGuinea GuineaBissau Ghana Gambia Gabon IvoryCoast Kenya Liberia Lesotho Libya Nigeria Niger Chad
The Turks have no problem with the Kurds. Turkey shoots are terrorists.
Die Türkei hat mehr einsatzfähige Fahrzeuge als die Bundeswehr in Deutschland 😂😂👍🏽
GOP together with Putin/Erdogan dictators attacks Syrian rebels. Great job MoscowMitch ( senatemajldr ), LeningradLindsey ( LindseyGrahamSC )
Shame on you Trump
In this world no one politic in power is peacemaker Only death and death again like beasts Shame endless
When America was great it protected its assets!
Where is our hero, Lindsey Graham?
Terror corridors are the Kurds who have been some of the only American supporters in the area! Way to destroy future assets!
Russia’s puppet opened the door! sAD!
Turkey attacks the Kurds - boosts Erdogan's popularity at home. trump gets a distraction. NATO divided. ISIS comes back. Turkish invasion causes chaos and huge refugee movement to Europe. More refugees add fuel to the flames of right wing populist parties in Europe. Russia wins.

Terror state of turkey and cihadist terrorists together.
There was a young fellow from Ankara Who was a terrific wankerer Till he sowed his wild oats With the help of a goat But he didn’t even stop to thankera.
As the US leaves their Kurdish allies to the slaughter. Who will ever in their right minds ally with the US after this?
Trump is a monster. My heart breaks for our Kurdis allies. What Trump did was wrong on every level.
Wow it did not even take 2 Days until the great and unmatched wisdom failed miserably
