🇺🇸🤝🇸🇾 — United States Senator Lindsey Graham praises the US Army strikes against Islamic State Terrorists, calls for support for the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and threatens Turkey & its Islamist paramilitaries with Sanctions if they dare to start an offensive that put Rojava's existence in question

In a post on Twitter/X, the Republican Senator said:

I appreciate the air strikes against ISIS targets in Syria, but it will not be enough. We have to ensure that the roughly 50,000 ISIS prisoners in northeastern Syria — being primarily held by Kurdish forces — are not released.

We should not allow the Kurdish forces — who helped us destroy ISIS on President Trump’s watch — to be threatened by Turkey or the radical Islamists who have taken over Syria.

Turkey has legitimate concerns regarding different groups that reside in northeastern Syria. But if there is conflict between Turkey and the Syrian Democratic Forces or Turkey attacks Kurdish forces, it will set in motion an ISIS jailbreak, which would be a nightmare for America.

The last time ISIS was in charge, thousands of Europeans and Americans were killed by ISIS plots that originated in Syria.

Furthermore, the reemergence of ISIS creates chaos throughout the region, which is going to lead to higher gas prices for us at home.

Turkey deserves to have a demilitarized buffer zone between northeastern Syria and Turkey to protect Turkish interests. However, if Turkey takes military action against Kurdish forces in Syria, it will jeopardize America’s interests dramatically.

In the past I have drafted sanctions targeting Turkey if they engage in military operations against the Kurdish forces who helped President Trump destroy ISIS. I stand ready to do this again in a bipartisan way.

This opinion will piss off lots of people now, but:

— Graham is right btw.

United States Armed Forces and the KKKrusader Coalition are the only barrier between an Islamic State 2.0, a Neo-Ottoman Empire under Grand Vizier Recep " Rëis " Erdogan or an Islamic Emirate of Syria-Sham under Julani

No matter how much anti-Western shilling you do now.
Assad Government, by the decision of his allied in Tehran and Moscow, ended

You have 3 clear options.

🇸🇾🇸🇾 The possibility of Syria under Turkish/Neo-Ottoman rule, with anti-Russian and anti-Western actors who want to destabilize not only their region, but Russia, Western-Central Europe and neighboring countries

🇸🇾🇸🇾 The Possibility of Syria under Western influence and tutelage, under actors who have clearly cooperated on multiple occasions with regional actors such as Iran and the Gulf against Turkey and its interlocutors in Syria

Or

🏴 An ISIS 2.0, invigorated, radicalized and without Russian air cover and the presence of tens of thousands of Shiite fighters to deal with them on the ground

It's quite simple.
The Crusaders or Salafist Barbarism.
