US, Turkey agree on Syria safe zone for refugees; new report warns of ISIS resurgenceThe U.S. and Turkey reached an agreement on Wednesday to create a safe zone in northeastern Syria in order to secure the territory once held by the Islamic State. Turkey, Iran, North Korea, not to mention China and Russia. Perfect! What I have been suggesting all along. A ref camp set up in their own land where they have a human right to be. It's not right for these folks to have to emigrate out. Send troops to protect them in their original homelands at secured locales!! Creating a so-called safe zone in a sovereign state, how disgraceful of these two self-seekers! One minute Turkey is playing peacemaker and the next, AN ANARCHIST who truly fits in the warmongering gang.
