Don't Enable Turkey's Jihadist Empire-building

Secure Freedom Minute

Turkey’s Islamist proxies have seized most of Syria. Now it wants an end to U.S. and other international sanctions on an al Qaeda-linked group controlling much of that long-suffering country. Those include a 10 million dollar bounty on its leader, known as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, for the murder of Americans, among others.
A multi-national delegation is in Damascus today, presumably for that purpose. After all, the Biden administration lavished money and arms on another bunch of Sharia-supremacists with American blood their hands when the Taliban seized Afghanistan.
Acceding to the Turks’ plans to have jihadists next dominate post-Assad Syria would help them create a neo-Ottoman empire there and far beyond. To that end, Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is preparing to exterminate Syria’s Kurds and possibly others.
We must stand squarely against, not effectively greenlight, such further crimes against humanity.
