That doesn't mean anything. Al-Qaeda is also considered a terrorist group by most of the world and yet was tacitly supported by the US in Syria.
Hell, there was one time when the US bombed a Syrian Army position to give ISIS an advantage in a battle.
Yet it has an US military presence, which undoubtedly provides support and intelligence to US action against Syria.
This af
tbh my only problem with rojava is the kurd part. other than the outrageous land claims and the quasi ethno-state dream they always ignore their best interest and alienate themselves from the state they live in for muh kurdistan which leads to their oppression and that's evident historically from saladin to al assad.
the fact that the current leaders in that region are extremely opportunistic is a helping factor considering kurds make up an important proportion of that region and they would definitely want them to their side.
Only Iraqi Kurds have those problems though
Syrian and even Turkish Kurds have repeatedly emphasized that they aren't separatists, what they want is federalism. Sayjng Rojava is Kurd dominated is like saying Lebanon is Maronite dominated, it's not true and it makes you look prejudiced as hell. Also reminded Muammar Qaddafi himself argued that Kurdish people had the right to independence should they choose so as a community, he saw no inherent conflict between Pan Arabism and the Kurdish cause.
Somebody needs to make a pasta with some basic information about Rojava to post at the start of every thread. That way retarded tankies won’t be able to show up and shit up the place with their woefully uninformed posts. Here are a few basic facts to get started…
If I missed anything then please feel free to add it.
It boggles my fucking mind how people will criticize Apo and the PKK/PYD for not being economically left enough, but then support Assad even though his policies were considerably further to the right of Apo’s before the war.
id need a source on that, are they really not allowed to fuck?
yes but also the kurds are very tankie, anarchists "claiming" them is part of the problem because autist sectarians just like shitting on other ideologies
its in "Revolution in Rojava: Democratic Autonomy and Womans Liberation in Syrian Kurdistan" Mind its not all of them but the core of the cadre.
Well it does mean something, even though yes you are correct the US has allied with many "terrorist" groups, starting many in many cases and being the major proponent in many others. But there is US puppet levels such as the Contras or the Mujihadeen in Afghanistan etc etc, the way you talk it is as if you think the Kurds are group on level with these. Evidently, they are not, but at the same time they have been classes as terrorists by most western nations, do you think they really don't understand American imperialism given this fact?
Yes the US military are scumbags and there was American and Saudi money in ISIS.
So given that the Kurd also fought against ISIS, does that then mean the Kurds were fighting not only theocratic imperialism but also capitalist imperialism, both at the same time? Fighting the Saudis, the US and their ISIS puppets all at the same time?
