1. How I'd deal with UN Aid, Turkey and Iran in one shot. Assad and Russia have left ISIS in pockets on the west side of the Euphrates. It's been like that for five years or more. Our 2001 AUMF covers ISIS. We should secure the border crossing at al Bukamal a 225 km strip along
2. the Iraqi border that links up with At Tanf and the ability to run logistics from Jordan. Once that supply line is established we move on Daesh in the Badia Dessert. All of this works. Not clear if the SDF trusts us enough to assist. If not we go it alone. We can bring in
3. UN relief there and truck it across country to Idlib that should be secured from Turkish forces and hopefully the SDF will participate in establishing security in the areas that Turkey formerly occupied.
4. Or we can do what the Ottoman monster wants and flood Europe with more Sunni refugees with a heavy sprinkling of Al-Qaeda among them. That's apparently Erdogan's and Putin's plan. Don't make our plan. @POTUS @JakeSullivan46 @CENTCOM @SecBlinken @USAmbUN
