Whether there is actual ethnic cleansing or not, they are now people without a home. Kurds who lived in northern Syria will never be able to return to their homes there, so they will simply become refugees with little support in the region. In the end, they will be "cleansed" from their traditional locations and will end up dispersing.

Trump has destroyed Kurdish culture, probably forever. For that, he deserves the condemnation of everyone.

There's no forgiving on this issue and I hope that along with all other charges, The Hague files charges against the stump regime and all his enablers by name.
