Does Turkey have Dirt on Trump? Or Did They Pay Him Big Bucks to Let ISIS Kill Kurds?

[McCamy Taylor]

Suspicious timing. Flynn has been told he will go to prison unless he plays even more ball with Mueller. Flynn's crimes include being an unregistered agent of Turkey. Turkey hates the Kurds. But being a democracy, it can not conduct a genocide within its own borders. So, it encourages its neighbors in Iran, Iraq and Syria to do the killing. ISIS--the Russian mob's Muslim offshoot--is extremely good at killing Kurds. Since everything that ISIS does---from sex trafficking to looting museums to kidnapping--is done for profit, it is possible that ISIS is under contract to kill Kurds. Under the table contract from Turkey. Turkey is pretty much unique among democratic countries in its failure to condemn ISIS. And now that the United States is gone, Syria's Kurds are at the mercy of ISIS. Meaning that ISIS can fulfill its contract to kill Kurds, thanks to Donald Trump.

So, why is Trump giving Turkey what it wants most in the world? One possibility--Turkey has damning evidence of Trump's or Jared's personal involvement in the death of WaPo journalist, Khasshogi. Such as an intercepted transmission from Saudi Arabia to Trump/Jared telling them to make sure that no one in US intelligence tries to interfere with the planned murder of the resident US alien. And Trump is having to do Turkey's bidding now to keep their dark secret from being revealed.

Or, it is also possible that during his tenure as Trump adviser/unregistered agent of Turkey, Flynn arranged for big bucks to be passed under the table to Trump. And Trump now must fulfill his part of the bargain. By throwing the Kurds to the wolves.

Or it could be a little bit of both.

1. Already

been flipped by pootin, they are working together to create an environment of ultimatums and then idiot gets the instructions through his soccer ball.

2. At MINIMUM, Trump and Jared are owned by MBS, and Turkey can hurt MBS worse on Khashoggi

than they already have. In that light it seems pretty obvious -- Trump rolls over for Turkey in exchange for them holding back on burning MBS even worse than they already have.

3. You gotta wonder what Stormfront thinks about their guy being owned by a Saudi.

5. Trump's support base is fractured now

This past week has been pretty intense, with the bump stock ban, wall funding controversy and now Mattis resigning. I genuinely think this might actually, finally do him in now more than anything. It was one thing to fight the rest of the country, but now he's turned on his own supporters.

4. Turkey wants

the Kurd's Oil fields. Bam!!!!

6. If the fight comes down to ISIS and the Kurds

Without actual state-supported anything for either side...my money's on the Kurds to be honest.
Pisses me off tho that we (once again) just happened to fuck over one of the staunchest real allies we have in the region.

Am I the only one who just wishes we could like, buy the saini pennensula from Egypt, label it a Free and Democratic Space, and let everyone who wants to go live there, just go start their own country?

I'd bet money the Palestinians, Kurds, and everybody else who needed to could find a way to make that work for the sake of not being goddamn shot at by the people who hate them.
