More from the Jerusalem Post:
Turkish forces attacked SDF positions in the city of al-Malikiyah in northern Syria, according to Syrian state news agency SANA. The Turkish Air Force “neutralized” three PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party) members in northern Iraq on Monday, according to the Turkish National Defense Ministry, reported the Turkish Anadolu Agency.
So, does this mean that Donald Trump “will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey,” or … ?
The question now for Trump is, does the wanton killing of American allies meet his threshold for something he considers "to be off limits" or is he ok with it?
If he's not ok with it, when does the destruction of the Turkish economy begin? https://t.co/DFtn706MSM

He’s not really subtle about his intentions, either:
Erdogan spox on Syria:
• Turkey will correct the demographics changed by YPG in Northeast Syria
• Turkey won’t allow ISIS to return in any shape or form pic.twitter.com/KtZAc0OoAy— Ragıp Soylu (@ragipsoylu) October 7, 2019
Erdogan is just announcing to the world his intentions to commit genocide. https://t.co/lk8fui3riq

Great job, everyone.
At this time we, Israelis, pray for the Kurd People who are under a brutal Turkish attack.
The lesson for Israel is simple:
Israel will ALWAYS defend itself by itself.
The Jewish State will never put its fate in the hands of others, including our great friend, the USA.
