The title is very misleading. Fuck Erdoğan, but this it’s not trying to take over Iraq. They’re killing Kurdish separatists with Iraq’s permission (which is also bad).
hmmmm, but I will concede a bit, it seems to be a military operation like putin’s, and the kurds have been a pain in the ass. Turkey is getting bolder though, fuck them

Can’t imagine the Kurds will be so helpful next time America needs them to do their cleaning up.
