It *paused* the violence. It did not cease it. Stop calling it a ceasefire. It's not. Turkey will start moving again in a couple of days. Had US forces not been so unceremoniously removed, the offensive would not have started, and this weak agreement wouldn't have been necessary.

This is also the EXACT rationale used for the Iran Nuclear Deal, i.e. that it's better to have a deal in place and stop Iran from producing nukes for a period of time than no deal at all.

The agreement did not cease or pause the violence. They got played, then thanked Turkey for playing them.

50. 100. 1,000. How many troops did we withdraw? Genuinely asking b/c I’ve seen all these numbers reported. My best understanding is that we withdrew 50 from the safety zone but retain 1,000 in other parts of Syria.pic.twitter.com/LBGHyJKBsF
