US Has Backed 21 of the 28 ‘Crazy’ Militias Leading Turkey’s Brutal Invasion of Northern Syria

New data from Turkey reveals almost all the mercenary force of “Arab militias” getting slammed by former and current U.S. officials were armed and trained in the past by the CIA and Pentagon, reports Max Blumenthal.

{In other words, virtually the entire apparatus of insurgents arrayed against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime — and armed and equipped under the Obama administration — has been repurposed by the Turkish military to serve as the spearhead of its brutal invasion of northern Syria. The leader of this force is Salim Idriss, now the “defense minister” of Syria’s Turkish-backed “interim government.” He’s the same figure who hosted John McCain when the late senator made his infamous 2013 incursion into Syria.}

John McCain never met a death dealer he didn't like. Until their use was over anyways. McCain still working from the grave. And Clinton, well, is Clinton. 2 peas of the same pod.

For those new/ish to the group. Max Blumenthal is the editor of the Grayzone, another source I widely use here. If you want to view the chart at the bottom of the article I'm providing a link to it for clearer viewing. ANd a link to the article at the Grayzone.

The Road to Damascus: How the Syria War was Won

Following the Damascus-Kurdish alliance, Syria may become the biggest defeat for the Central Intelligence Agency since Vietnam, says Pepe Escobar.

“It’s a quadruple win. The U.S. performs a face saving withdrawal, which Trump can sell as avoiding a conflict with NATO ally Turkey. Turkey has the guarantee – by the Russians – that the Syrian Army will be in control of the Turkish-Syrian border. Russia prevents a war escalation and keeps the Russia-Iran-Turkey peace process alive. And Syria will eventually regain control of the entire northeast.”

{Raqqa, bombed to rubble by the Pentagon, may have been taken by the SDF, but Deir ez-Zor was taken by Damascus’s Syrian Arab Army. The ultimate American aim was to consistently keep the north of the Euphrates under U.S. power, via their proxies, the SDF and the Kurdish PYD/YPG. That American dream is now over, lamented by imperial Democrats and Republicans alike.

The CIA will be after Trump’s scalp till Kingdom Come.}

If Trump wasn't such an asshat towards Nationalism for the white agenda, a con artist for his own wealth, and total capitalist for a failing system, I might have half a mind to like him. I need more evidence he isn't just part of the collaboration though in the whole scheme of the Deep State. He does have a tendency to show signs of putting up road blocks to their agenda. But then there are other areas he's still obviously working with and or for them. If he ends sanctions on Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran and starts working with these nations, then I'll know he's either mad crazy or legit. Na, not a chance in hell huh?
