We keep it very short. Kurdish forces who saved the world from IS barbarism, putting forward their lives for the protection and freedom of all ethnicities have been backstabbed by the US. By withdrawing its troops from the Syrian border, the US has opened the way for Turkey to commit mass genocide against the Kurdish people. Trump is facilitating an ISIS resurgence putting not only Kurdish people but all other ethnicities in Rojava (Northern Syria) under risk of war crimes.
Please unite with us before it is too late. The US has chosen to side with Turkey who has been supporting and funding ISIS since the start of the Syrian civil war.
Kurdish forces YPG and YPJ fought for all of us. Condemn Trump!
