Who's bombing the Kurds for years?
And facilitating Azerbaijan continuing a genocide by turning the entire country of Armenia into a glorified reservation
Azerbaijan ethnic cleansed the armenians from karabagh, there wasn't a genocide.
Genocide is being stripped of all it's gravitas by this inflationary usage in recent times :(
You are correct about this, as what Azerbaijan did does not meet the UN definition of genocide. But I don't think that was the point they were making.
He's doing it right now, cutting water and electricity to millions, taking advantage with everyone's obsession with Gaza..
Baddies opposing other buddies just because of geopolitics? Color me surprised
Funnily enough, EU and NATO don't have problems with that as well.
They do. For geopolitical reasons there's that not much done about that, but the US did for example shoot down a Turkish drone recently. .
It's also important to distinguish here. The West considers the PKK to be a terrorist organization as well. It's the YPG where opinions with Turkey differ.
They do but they don't do anything? Like they care a lot just not doing anything about?
They shot that armed drone because it came near their base, not because they care who else it was going to shoot at.They shot that armed drone because it came near their base, not because they care who else it was going to shoot at.
That's the official story they tell so Turkey can save face, yes.
IOW US is protecting Kurds by shooting down a single Turkish drone?
Kurds, which are often abandoned by US (Iraq, Syria at least, in later case giving free hands to .... Turkey)?
I really don't think there is a positive internet towards Kurds there.As I said, they're not doing much. But it's fairly clear that the US would rather have Turkey leave the Kurds alone. It's just not ready to take more than symbolic measures.
Man, US left their allied Kurds to Turkey's slaughter recently.
That was recently, but under a different administration. It's unlikely that Biden would have done that.
