With Trump abandoning Kurds and pulling troops from northern Syria to clear the way for Turkish attack - a reminder of how Erdogan’s security staff beat Kurdish protesters in Washington DC in May 2017
For those asking what happened - fifteen of the bodyguards were indicted, but charges were later dropped in March 2018 ahead of a meeting between Erdoğan and then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

If this is true, it is NOT soon enough and for that I am sorry. For all who have died at this regime's orders. If this is true, I am glad that the end of war may be near.
