IF THERE HAD NEVER BEEN ISIS (Da'esh), what would Northern Syria have been like today. 1) #ISIS #Daesh #Syria #Kurds #Turkey

Well, Turkey would be complaining about attacks by the Syrian Kurds across the border and they would have assembled a force of about 28,000 to invade and create a buffer zone.

Syria, in a civil war, would have tried to send help to the Kurds.

JUST LIKE TODAY. 2)

And where would be the Americans? Not there, because they never would have been there in the first place.

So, in short, nothing will have changed." 3)
