Still significant fighting in this eastern border region. Probably 2-3 months of major ops left before shifting to stabilization and internal security. Airstrikes killed 150 ISIS terrorists on Saturday. Direct hit on ISIS HQ after weeks of intel collect.https://twitter.com/oirspox/status/955874980473995267 …

Thank you Mr.McGurk!!! The re-introduction of free range al Qaeda / daesh into Afrin as part of the Turkish front in this attack raises concerns as to what mission is actually being engaged in this effort. And in the mix, few missed the threat issued to US troops. Thank you!!

You will not be staying in Syria if Turkey attacks SDF in Manbij. The US policy is sitting on a knife edge, I hope you guys know what you are doing?

The Kurds & the other peoples of North Syria must be urgently gathered in a federation under the US flag. This is necessary for the permanent stability & peace of the region.
