ED: I am not worried about Syria, I never been. nearly 4 months after the so-called "Syrian Uprising" I wrote:
"Erdogan, should worry, Turkey has the same Syrian, religious/ethnic political landscape. So, if Syria falls, Turkey could be NEXT. If Syria survive ( and IT will), Turkey would lose everything build via the Syrian Gate.
In Arabic we say, those who have a Glass home should avoid throwing stones on neighbors.
It’s not about democracy, it has never been.
It’s about dividing the divided,"
Three years ago, I told that to a friend and added:
Don’t be surprised if you see in future a divided Turkey, a united Kurdistan, uniting the Kurds in Iraq, Syria and Turkey, It would be good for “Israel”. If its lead by Barazani, and accepted by Syria who would retake Iskandarone and and 15 millions Allawis
Three years later, Turkey, Jordan, the so-called March 14th movement in Lebanon, and the Leadership of Hamas, realized that Assad is victorious and its time to pay for what they did to Syria.
Syria and it's Kurd will turn the Zio- Nato magic against the puppet in Ankara.
Instead of an anti-syria buffer zone you would see a Kurd anti-Erdugan zone defending Syria

Over
the last few months, Americans who pay attention to current events have
been treated to a surprising barrage of praise coming from the
mainstream media regarding the Kurdish fighters in Syria. The Kurds have
been presented as true freedom fighters and an opposition that the US
can justify supporting, at least at some level, against ISIS.Much of
this praise is well-deserved. Kurdish fighters have indeed fought
bravely against ISIS, dealing blow after blow to the Western-backed terrorist group on a number of occasions. Indeed, the Kurds have fought so skillfully that the US was quick to steal credit for
a high-profile operation that was actually conducted by Syrian and
Iraqi Kurds – the rescue of trapped Yazidis on the top of Mt. Sinjar.The
resolve that Kurdish fighters showed in their fight against ISIS at Ayn
al-Arab (aka Kobane) was extraordinary as was their understanding of
the necessity for coordination and cooperation with the Syrian
government with regards to issues containing mutual strategic
self-interest for both parties.
The West, however, particularly NATO
spear-headed by the United States has long had much a much different
interest in the Kurdish fighters and their relationship to the region
and the conflict currently raging there. Indeed, the Kurds have
long acted as a force which the US has been able to harness to stir up
destabilization in the Iraqi, Syrian, Turkish, and Iranian sphere. Such
is the case now, as the US and NATO powers seek to use the Kurdish
desire for an independent country – Kurdistan – as a destabilizing force
against Syria, Iraq, and Iran and a galvanizing force for the Turks. Whether or not the Kurds will ever obtain such an independent state, however, remains to be seen.
Regardless, the US has been attempting to use the fighting force of the Kurds for their geopolitical aims – whatever those aims might be in relation to the creation or not of an independent Kurdistan.
US Media Propaganda
Despite rushing in to claim the glory of the battle against ISIS and the rescue of trapped Yazidis on Mt. Sinjar, the Western press has been increasingly praising the fighters of Kurdish militias while ignoring, denying, or condemning the heroism of troops officially fighting for the Syrian government.
This is not to say that the Kurdish fighters do not deserve the praise they have received but, when one considers the fact that the individuals the Kurdish militias are fighting are actually controlled by NATO and the US, it becomes more obvious that there is an agenda to the recent upsurge in praise for Kurdish fighters.
For instance, the constant reference to the village of Ayn al-Arab as Kobane is an intentional statement since Kobane is the Kurdish name for the town while Ayn al-Arab is the Arabic/Syrian name. The rare coverage of the heroism of an individual actually fighting ISIS – such as the case with Hebun Sinya – is another sign that the Western media is attempting to make heroes of the Kurds while ignoring the heroism of others. Of course, this attention is well-deserved – Sinya was a stalwart fighter against ISIS and has earned the honor bestowed upon her. That being said, the Western media (la Perfide Angleterre) and the governments it speaks for always has an ulterior motive for whatever stories it reports. Thus, there is clearly another agenda to the positive presentation of the Kurdish fighters against ISIS.
Carving Out Kurdistan
While the wheels of the propaganda machine is turning on the screens of Westerners in the US and Europe, the plan to carve out a Kurdistan is taking a much more violent form in Syria and Iraq. The ability to remove all forces within the borders of what would be called Kurdistan (except for the Kurdish forces) has been the result of constant U.S. bombing and death squad herding around towns like Ayn al-Arab (Kobane),Tal Abyad, and others where the Kurds are able to outline their territory by virtue of military prowess.
After all, the US bombing has done nothing but strengthen ISIS at every other location in Syria and Iraq, while even bombing Syrian infrastructure and Iraqi military forces directly, and “accidentally” airdropping of support to ISIS. In the Kurdish areas, however, such bombing seems to be functioning as a primitive and violent method of border shaping that will outline the Kurdish territory from the Syrian and Iraqi territories. Increasing ISIS forces in Ayn al-Arab (Kobane) significantly hampers the ability of the Syrian Army to respond to defeat those forces in these specific areas, thus cutting off Ayn al-Arab from the Syrian Army and leaving the Kurdish areas to the devices of the Kurds as the ISIS forces are beaten back from inside the borders of the developing Kurdistan.
Leaving the question of the legitimacy of a Kurdistan aside for a while and acknowledging the heroism of the Kurds in their fight against ISIS, Nusra, and other terrorist forces, it should be noted that the Kurds have found some very unsavory allies in the process. Most notably, those unsavory allies turn out to be the United States and the Free Syrian Army (proxy terrorists of the US and NATO).

Most notably, those unsavory allies turn out to be the United States and the Free Syrian Army (proxy terrorists of the US and NATO).
For
instance, the United States has been tacitly supporting the Kurdish
fighters in Iraq for some time under the pretext of assisting them in
their fight against ISIS, despite the fact that the United States has armed, trained, funded, facilitated, and directed ISIS from the beginning.
The United States has allegedly stopped short of directly arming the
Kurds but it has maintained very close ties with them. Some would even
argue that, with the exception of the ISIS fighters themselves – the
Kurds have more friendly relations with the U.S. than the Iraqi
government.The US government has been attempting to pass legislation to
directly arm the Kurdish and Sunni forces in Iraq for some time,
recently passing part of that legislation in the form of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2016 (although
differences in the House and Senate version are currently being worked
out).The arming of the Kurds directly in Iraq, along with the Sunni
forces, would thus create the perception of fully separate and
independent principalities, free from the control of the Iraqi central
government, leading to the breakup of the country as a whole into three
separate entities – a Kurdish segment, Sunni segment, and Shiite
segment. Such a plan has long been in the works for Iraq and, if the US
continues its support of Kurds in Syria, the situation is ripe for the
appearance of a Kurdistan entity across the borders of Iraq and Syria.
Indeed, much like the plan to break up Iraq into three separate parts in
Iraq, a similar plan was devised for Syria in the absence of total
destruction in the same vein as Libya.While the question of accepting
arms may easily be explained by the “gold is where you find it” motive,
the fact that the YPG is now working directly with the Free Syrian Army (FSA)
is further evidence of collusion between NATO/US and the YPG. While
presented as moderate by the mainstream western press, the FSA is
nothing more than al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Nusra. Indeed, there is no such thing as amoderate rebel in Syria and there never has been.
The FSA is documented to have committed massive atrocities and the groups – directed, armed, controlled and funded by the US – are intent upon implementing Sharia law on the subjugated populations. As I and other researchers have documented, the FSA is nothing more than a wing of al-Qaeda/ISIS and has even publicly stated that it was working with the terrorist organizations (also funded, trained, armed, and directed by the West) in the past.

The
fact that the YPG would be willing to cooperate with the FSA is telling
but the fact that the FSA would be willing to cooperate with the YPG is
even more telling. After all, the Iraqi Kurds have long beenconnected to US intelligence and military operations in
the past. With an increase of signs of cooperation between the YPG and
their Iraqi counterparts, one can only wonder if the events transpiring
on the ground in relation to the Kurds in Syria, Iraq, and Turkey are
part of an overarching US plan to finally carve out a pound of
geographic flesh out of Iraq and Syria.
Unfortunately for the Kurds, the history of their community and the US has been one of short-term usefulness and treachery. Seldom have the Kurds benefited from supporting American actions or working in the service of US geopolitical agendas, whether wittingly or unwittingly. In almost every single circumstance, the Kurds have provided yeomen’s service in the name of destabilization and the strategy of tension but have been left holding the bag in the end. That bag almost always contains horrific slaughter and subsequent oppression of the Kurdish people.

That bag almost always contains horrific slaughter and subsequent oppression of the Kurdish people.
The Turkish Time Bomb
Despite
the possibility of the development of an autonomous or even independent
Kurdish entity in Iraq and Syria, Turkey is most certainly not going to
allow the formation of a Kurdistan to come from its own territory. The
Turks have been fighting for years against such a proposal even at the
cost of some of their international reputation, billions of dollars, and
massive amounts of destruction and loss of life.This, then, is the gift
of Erdogan and his backers who have cooperated with the West, the US,
and NATO in their attempts to destroy Assad. The destabilization of the
Kurdish regions will, without a doubt, begin to spill over into Turkey,
reviving Kurdish dreams of a Kurdistan, carved from Syria, Iraq, Iran,
and Turkey. Erdogan’s treacherous and immoral cooperation with the US
has also proved foolish as Turkey will itself be dragged into another
quagmire and destructive war to prevent Kurdistan from becoming a
reality.ConclusionAll this being said, considering the history of
the Kurds and Western machinations, there is no guarantee a Kurdistan
will ever actually take shape. With a Kurdistan, the Brzezinski method of
micro-states and mini-states will become realized. In other words, the
construction of a weak, impotent state based upon ethnicity, religion,
and other identity politics but without the ability to resist the will
of larger nations, coalitions, and banking/industrial corporations.
Without
a Kurdistan, the strategy of tension and destabilization will continue
to exist as a ready-made fallback plan with which to weaken the region
and provide for yet another avenue to sink the countries surrounding the
faux Kurdistan into regional conflict and war.
While the final
goal of the Anglo-American empire regarding the creation of a Kurdistan
still remains to be seen, the question itself is undoubtedly being used
for geopolitical reasons today. It is also certain to result in lower
living standards, greater oppression, and less freedom for all involved.
