US envoy in Syria critical of military troop withdrawal
Turkey invaded days after Trump ordered the small number of U.S. special forces in the area to leave

By Matthew Lee | Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A senior State Department envoy has written a highly critical assessment of the Trump administration’s abrupt withdrawal of troops from northeast Syria, U.S. officials said Thursday.

Two officials familiar with the matter said the internal memo by the top American diplomat in northern Syria, William Roebuck, takes the administration to task for not doing enough to prevent Turkey’s invasion of the region and protect U.S.-allied Kurdish fighters there.

Turkey invaded days after President Donald Trump ordered the small number of U.S. special forces in the area to leave, ostensibly so they would not be caught in a crossfire between the Turks and Kurds.

‘Soft’ Ethnic Cleansing as Jihadists Steal Christian Lands in NE Syria 11/01/19

CBN News video

Soft ethnic cleansing.

stop this now Mr. President.  This is not just a threat to Christians or Kurds.  This is a threat to the world.  Trump needs to own it.

More not just Kurds.  Christians who have lived in these lands for 2000 years  "we have lost the moral clarity":

In the new Trump era have we lost all concern for Christians and no longer care that a Jihad is taking over in the ME?

Christian clergymen: Ottoman Massacres against Armenians will be repeated unless international community stops the extremists

2019-11-07 10:27:43

Kobani –North-Press Agency
Fayad Muhammad

 

The cities of Sere-Kaniye (Ras al-Ain), Tal Abyad (Gre-Spi) and Afrin have witnessed a large wave of displacement, including the Christian component, due to the Turkish military attacks, amid fears of shelling and massacres on the civilians, as they live in difficult conditions in the areas of displacement after they left their homes. Around 700 Christian families from Ras al-Ain, Tal Abyad and Afrin have arrived in Kobani, in northern Syria.


Firas, a cleric at Kobani church of (al-Ekhowa) told North-Press that the Turkish military attacks and its affiliated armed opposition groups have left residents with great fear which led them to be displaced from their areas, as those armed groups target all components.

Dhimmitude: the Islamic system of governing populations conquered by jihad wars, encompassing all of the demographic, ethnic, and religious aspects of the political system. The word "dhimmitude" as a historical concept, was coined by Bat Ye'or in 1983 to describe the legal and social conditions of Jews and Christians subjected to Islamic rule.
Dhimmitude: The Status of Minorities Under Islamic Rule

If Turkey had Syrian refugee's he wanted to send home they should go to their homes.  Not take the lands of Christians and Kurds.

This is Jihad, and has always been wrong to people who value freedom.  What we have allowed here is terrorism and I wonder where Paula White is?  Where is Robert Jeffres?,... Jerry Falwell Jr.????  We support ethnic cleansing of Christians now?

Turkey accuses US of theft over occupation of Syria’s oil fields

Turkey accuses US of theft over occupation of Syria’s oil fields
By  News Desk -   2019-11-09

US claims to Syria’s oil fields are absolutely illegitimate and have no basis in international law, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said, according to Turkish television.

“They [the US] acknowledge and openly state that they are present there [in Syria] because of oil fields. No one has a right to Syrian resources. They came here, across thousands of kilometers, and said ‘We will evaluate the oil fields of this country’. This contradicts the norms of international law,” Cavusoglu said, his remarks cited by the A Haber tv channel.

The man who said this, appears in the news a lot, so sort of the 2nd man in power I'd say. Another person who held that position resigned, he might not have had a good conscience with all that goes on in Turkey.

Cavusoglu, foreign minister.

    A priest is killed in Deir Ezzor and Daesh (ISIS) claims responsibility for the operation!

    Deir Ezzor 24 network correspondent said that the priest “Hoseib Abraham Beidoyan” and his father “Hanna Ibrahim Beido” were killed by gunmen this morning, Monday, in Deir Ezzor province.

    Hours after the incident, Daesh claimed responsibility for the killing of the priest and his father in a statement it posted on its platforms on social media.

    The priest, Hoseib Abraham, from Qamishli city in Hasakeh governorate, is the pastor of the Armenian Catholic Church “Mar Yousef” in Qamishli. He was in his car with his father and two people on their way to Deir Ezzor province on a mission for the church when they were attacked, according to statements by people close to the priest.

The priest appears to be Armenian, also, reports say 5 people were killed. Perhaps there were 3 bombings in this area of Syria.

For east Syria, American troops are about much more than oil

For east Syria, American troops are about much more than oil
Sarah El Deeb, The Associated Press

BEIRUT — As U.S. troops beef up in eastern Syria to protect oil fields, residents hope their mission will bring stability and prosperity to the remote and resource-rich region — and keep the Syrian government out.

Their hopes reflect the expectations being piled onto the operation, even as President Donald Trump flip-flopped on the scope and duration of troops deployment. He initially ordered all troops out of Syria last month, then decided to keep a force in place to hold the oil infrastructure.

That keeps the U.S. troops in the middle of eastern Syria’s complex political geography, rich in oil and gas and packed with Turkish, Kurdish, Russian, Syrian and Iranian-backed troops.

Very sad.  Just don't hear anything from Trump on this.  I guess if there is nothing worth value to him it isn't important.
