Trump betrays Rojava: allows Erdogan to Bomb, Invade and Genocide anti ISIS defenders

Donald Trump has betrayed the heroic fighters who fought and died to save us from ISIS.

To do this he will have personally signed a paper allowing Turkish jets and helicopters to invade the airspace and murder countless innocent people. Donald Tump is now a war criminal and mass murderer.

Protesters, predominantly from the Kurdish town of Ras al-Ayn, marched several miles to reach a base placed on the border with Turkey. Protesters presented a petition calling on coalition forces to halt the rumoured Turkish operation.
[BREAKING] US allows Turkey to attack Rojava! The White House just announced that US “will no longer be in the immediate area” of Northern Syria, allow Turkey to launch an invasion in the region  #riseup4rojava
@RISEUP4R0JAVA
A  new illegal and genocidal Turkish invasion also helps ISIS fighters to escape. It serves terror and is a real opportunity for Daesh to reorganize itself and thus take control of large areas of Syria. The declaration of war on #Rojava is a threat to the whole world. #riseup4rojava

Trump has done his ‘Evil Deal’ with Erdogan,  selling out and betraying his SDF and Kurdish allies who conquered ISIS. We can be sure that both mafia style presidents will receive untraceable kickbacks  in anonymous offshore accounts.

The US has given Erdogan free rein to flood Rojava with his fast growing mercenary army of jihadi Syrian militias, including many ISIS and Al Qaeda and militias now holed up in Idlib. Erdogan is paying the terrorists 500 Turkish dollars a month and offering loot, land and power destroying Rojava. Especially evil is the promise to destroy the unique womens’ liberation movement, returning women to semi slavery under medieval jihadi rule and implicitly offering the terrorist mercenaries  the right to kidnap, rape and torture the heroic YPJ womens defense militia, as is already happening in Afrin.

All they asked for was peace and democracy: This is what Erdogan did to Kurdish cities just over the border in Turkey in 2015.

Erdogan has already taken over Afrin, Al Bab, Azaz, Jarablus  and much of Idlib and has openly boasted he will conquer all lands once held by the Ottoman Empire …At home he has  gained total dictatorial control, /destroyed Kurdish areas killing thousands and ordered the imprisonment of hundreds of thousands of people on suspicion.

What can we do, reading this in some safer and stabler part of the world?

by ..  If the Turkish government and its henchmen expect their extermination fantasies to become reality, they have not taken into account the resistance of the women’s and people’s defense units (YPJ/YPG) and especially the resistance of the people in Northern and Eastern Syria.

Those who have defeated the Islamic state through the sacrifice of thousands of martyrs and the courageous resistance of the population will defend the self-governing areas against a Turkish invasion.

We must all do our part and fulfill our responsibility of defending this revolution!

The military, economic and diplomatic cooperation between Turkey, the USA, NATO and European countries must be exposed and politically attacked. No support for Erdogan, his regime and his war!

No arms supply and no financial or political aid to the Turkish extermination policy!

If democratic movements decide to put the issue on the agenda: in the media, on the streets, in the factories, businesses and classrooms of their countries, then we can develop a common force against Turkey’s war plans.

We must build a permanent political resistance capable of preventing cooperation with Turkish fascism in our countries.

Should it come to Day X, the beginning of a Turkish invasion: take to the streets, take actions, occupy, disrupt and block! Show those responsible in the government offices and company headquarters what you think of their war!

Together we can stop the war of aggression of Turkey! No war against Northern Syria!

The revolution in Northeast Syria will win, fascism will be smashed! ”

”In the event of a Turkish invasion, you can use every means in your power to discredit and impede the Turkish state, Erdogan, Trump, Putin and the others who paved the way for that outcome.

Even if you are not able to stop them—even if you can’t save our lives—you will be part of building the kind of social movements and collective capacity that will be necessary to save others’ lives in the future.

In addition, you can look for ways to get resources to people in this part of the world, who have suffered so much and will continue to suffer as the next act of this tragedy plays out.

‘Erdogan’s terrorists ”Assassinating, Beheading, Stabbing and Planting Explosives’ in ‘Safe Zone’

Turkish ‘elected dictator’ Tayyip Erdogan said yet again on Saturday that he will order a military air and ground operation east of the Euphrates river in Syria.“We’ve made our preparations, we’ve made our operation plans, given the necessary instructions”, the politician said, adding that Turkey would launch the illegal genocidal invasion “as soon as today or tomorrow”.

But a Turkish backed mercenary group, Ahrar al-Shaab  ” has already infiltrated the area and is committing dozens of atrocities,  specializing in assassinations, beheadings, stabbings and the planting of explosive devices to ‘avenge attacks by the resistance in occupied Afrin’, focusing on border cities such as Serekaniye, Dirbesiye and Qamishlo in Erdogan’s ”Safe Zone”. (see below and HERE https://rojavainformationcenter.com/2019/09/database).

7 Oct 2019. Yesterdays massive protests against imminent illegal Turkish Invasion in Sere Kaniye/Ras al-Ayn border.

Erdogan is still being courted by both the US and Russia who see Turkey as strategic, he has defied with impunity the now embattled Trump on the S400 deal and on buying Iranian oil, and now demands permission to use Syrian air space to again bomb the Syrian people before invading.

Erdogan claimed he intends to settle 3.5m Syrian refugees in Turkey in the invaded area he calls a ”safe zone”…

But over and over he previously claimed he wants to expel the local Kurdish population. ”cleanse Rojava” and restore the Ottoman Empire and is proving his wish in ‘turkifying’ Afrin, so this new senseless invasion would be more ethnic cleansing and attempted genocide.

Serekaniye demonstration ‘Down with the occupation’ Syrian Kurds protest

Erdogan has gained much needed support (his AKP party lost Istanbul city council) by complaining often about the  3.5m Syrian refugees in Turkey, although they are less than 5% of the Turkish population in a huge area. Turkey has already received 6,000,000,000 euros by blackmailing EU taxpayers to support them.

Refugees used again as Human Blackmail by Erdogan to extract money and impunity for Rojava invasion

Meanwhile they are forced to work black for starvation wages, boosting the economy and forcing salaries down for everyone. (The over 3 million Syrian refugees in Turkey (actually a tiny minority in a population of 81 million compared with the IDP’s hosted in Rojava and formerly Afrin) are being cruelly exploited as virtual black slave labour while being subsidised with billions of euros by the EU taxpayer with continuous blatant blackmail threats to ” flood Europe” with them.)

And now he is using them as a ridiculous excuse for a new illegal invasion, this time in NE Syria. (The idea of ‘settling’ 2,000,000 refugees in an already occupied  rural semi desert region with no resources might appeal to Erdogan’s favourite historical figure: Adolf Hitler).

Lebanon for example has nearly half its population Syrian refugees and gets little aid or attention. Afrin, before the ongoing invasion by Turkey, had nearly doubled its population hosting a huge number of Arab, Christian, Assyrian and Turkmen refugees and was hailed as a  model of direct democracy, gender equality and religious and ethnic tolerance.

Despite a siege blockade the Afrin population nearly doubled (172k to 323k )  while Turkey’s has only increased by 4.4%  (3.5 million out of 80 million).  (The total population of Afrin as of 2005 was recorded at only 172,095 people Wikipedia.) The Turkish takeover has forced a mass exodus of refugees from Afrin amidst documented reports of mass murder, widespread looting , kidnapping, rape, a continuing guerilla war and pillage by the Turkish contracted Jihadi mercenaries and Turkish military.

Once invaded Turkey will NEVER LEAVE, and a guerilla war will continue indefinitely. For example, Turkey refuses to leave Nth Cyprus,  or its illegal bases in Iraq,or Afrin, Al Bab, Jarablus, Azaz.. or of course the Syrian province of Hatay, now 80 years invaded and ethnically cleansed.

Erdogan forced more than half Afrin’s population to flee and they still survive in tent camps, seizing their property and importing thousands of jihadi mercenaries, Al Qaeda ex ISIS guerillas, and sponsored the Al Qaesa mini state in Idlib….

…and now has the utter hypocrisy to complain about refugees and announce a new invasion ‘to settle them in a safe area’.

Defeated but defiant. Massacres  by Turkish troops and  the mercenaries of FSA  around Afrin  as the NATO tanks finally rolled in and the Afrin defense became a guerilla war..

It is not necessary either to set  up a ”safe zone”.   All Turkey has to do is pull out and stop the arms, cash and material supplies,  HTS in Idlib would have to surrender the Al Qaeda State, the war would quickly end and the refugees would surely flock home.

A critical look at a landmark book that Extinction Rebellion have placed in central importance in their theory on non-violence.
———–
I think there are a few issues that arise from the book. Firstly the question of violence itself. Often campaigns and movements adopt non-violent strategies for moral reasons. But the violence that Chenoweth and Stephan talk about is usually terrorist or guerrilla warfare. They aren’t really considering situations where a few windows get broken as part of a much bigger demonstration, or where during a mass, non-violent protest strike or stay-away, a group of protesters might injure or kill a policeman. In fact, in many cases, the authors note that these sort of incidents did occur but class the movements as non-violent.
The problem is that most contemporary movements that argue for these strategies are not arguing against terrorism as a strategy, but arguing that no sort of violence…

DEEP GREEN: Want To Save The Environment? De-Fund The Pentagon – By Caitlin Johnstone

– “…There is no single, unified entity that is a larger polluter than America’s dishonestly labeled “Department of Defense”. Its yearly carbon output alone dwarfs that of entire first-world nations like Sweden and Portugal; if the US military were its own country it would rank 47th among emitters of greenhouse gasses, meaning it’s a worse polluter than over 140 entire nations”

Want To Save The Environment? De-Fund The Pentagon – By Caitlin Johnstone 

Millions of people are uniting in demonstrations worldwide against our civilization’s ecocidal march toward extinction, which makes me so happy to see. It’s really encouraging to see so many young people burning with love for their planet and a hunger to reverse the damage that has been done to our ecosystem by the refusal of previous generations to turn away from our path of devastation. This must continue if we are to survive as…

‘Rule of Law a Joke’: Catalans jailed on Suspicion as Show Trial Verdict looms

THE PRESENT STATE OF LAW BECOMES A FARCE WHEN THE OBJECTIVE IS TO CRIMINALIZE INDEPENDENTISM    ..  by RE-EVOLUCIÓN

(leer en castellano abajo)    Seven young independentists  from Republic Defense Committees  (CDRs) arrested on suspicion last Monday arrived at the Spanish Court with a Civil Guard bus around seven in the morning but did not begin to testify until 11.

They were refused bail as it was claimed they might abscond.

The obvious reason for their detention is the taking of hostages against reaction to the upcoming sentencing of the Catalan leaders, within the next 10 days, by the politically appointed far right High Court.

The elected leaders have spent 2 years in jail awaiting trial  for holding a long demanded, non binding, consultation referendum on Catalan Independence, which resulted in an overwhelmingly YES PLEASE vote despite massive military police attacks which shocked the world.

The CDRs are local horizontally organised committees set up after the wave of police and following far right and fascist attacks.

The 7 youths were arrested in an operation ordered by the holder of the court of instruction 6 of the Court, Manuel García Castellón.

According to the version of the Civil Guard, they were found material and substances considered ‘precursors’ of the manufacture of explosives, in fact things you might find in any garage or kitchen.

The arrests by the Madrid run paramilitary Guardia Civil were seen as an open return to Francoist dictatorship. The local parliament passed a motion demanding the removal of agents from the Civil Guard from Catalonia. But of course they have no powers to enforce this and the local Mossos police are now also run by central government.

Before the hearing, political representatives, such as Eulàlia Reguant and Maria Sirvent, and members of the CDR declare.

40 minutes of horror from 1st Oct 2017 Catalan Consultative Referendum. Imported Spanish police failed to stop the vote which overwhelmingly called for independence. ..40 minuts de l’HORROR de l’1-O(imatges de 500 agressions, aproximadament)

Some media yesterday reproduced the police version, according to which two of the detainees acknowledged having bought material and having made tests for the manufacture of artifacts. Continue reading “‘Rule of Law a Joke’: Catalans jailed on Suspicion as Show Trial Verdict looms”
