@Haskawichemistt It’s pure chauvinism. I have no idea why SDF agreed to the temporary language inclusions. It seems like they are kicking an inevitable conflict down the road. A lot of Kurds I know feel humiliated and defeated without even fighting.
@sol_0_4@qunfuz2@NeilPHauer@hxhassan@newlinesmag I feel like this is the core weakness of the KCK integration plans with turkey and Syria. The people are rightfully skeptical and infuriated that any deal is being made with these states. These deals look more like surrenders if the states make little compromises.
@zweilicht1985@sol_0_4@CdricLabrousse If SDF wasn’t keen on following the agreement they wouldn’t have pulled out all their best fighters from the neighborhood earlier that year. It was quite naive of them to do that, and was clear that the governments siege was a first step towards a further offensive
@Haskawichemistt It also seems like more nationalistic and Kurdish centric factions won out in the ideological debate. They’ve completely left out Syriacs in the integration negotiations. They only care about Kurdish rights and Kurdish rights only.
@Haskawichemistt It does feel like a fever dream, but I do believe that this is just a dissolution on paper. SDF will just exist as “integrated brigades”
@Jbdrugi Wouldn’t sending them back put them under state control and supervision? I would think that it would weaken the tenuous position rojava is into send them back. That isn’t accounting for the already countless abuses that have been taking place against Kurds who returned.
@orcaweld@polyfraggrenade@GorgeBushdid911 Exact same shit Israelis say about Palestinians. Guess who also has a surveillance state and is heavily obsessed about a minority in their country? You!
