Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted October 16, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) As of right now they might be. ISIS has been pretty damaged and PKK been around much longer. The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey,[34] the United States, the United Kingdom,[35] Japan,[36] and the European Union. However, the United Nations and countries such as Switzerland, China, India, Russia and Egypt, have not designated the PKK as a terrorist organization.

Of course the Turks say they are terrorists and if that's the case we had terrorists as allies...SMH Edited October 16, 2019 by Jimmy Snacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well whenever a group says they want an independent state within a country there is going to be problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Obama administration gave them military support. That surprises you somehow tht the US supports someone we call terrorists? Oh and its not just the Turks. I really don't give a shit about them. They like so many other so called allies are our friends to benefit one thing.....themselves. You think they would fight along side of us outside their homelands? The PKK engaged the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) forces in Syria in mid-July 2014[137] as part of the Syrian Civil War. In August the PKK engaged IS in Northern Iraq and pressured the Government of Turkey to take a stand against IS.[138][139] PKK forces helped tens of thousands of Yazidis escape an encircled Mount Sinjar.[140] In September 2014, during the Siege of Kobanî, the PKK, receiving direct U.S. military support,[141] engaged with Islamic State forces in Syria who were attacking Kurdish city Kobane, which resulted in conflicts with Turks on the border and an end to a cease-fire that had been in place over a year.[142] The PKK accused Turkey of supporting ISIS. The PKK participated in many offensives against ISIS in Iraq and Syria.[143] Edited October 16, 2019 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
