Even in the so called kurdish area of Syria kurds aren't an overwhelming majority, It's just one city . Being secular doesn't mean they should be allowed to carve Syria. Assad was secular too btw.
SDF is not sypmphatetic to PKK, they are simply the xPKK fighters, who has been legitimized by changing the name as advised by US special forces to be trained and equipped. Turkey proposed US to guard the ISIS prisoners by deploying 3 commando brigades. Undoubtly for decades the US policy for the region is to gain political leverage by promoting some sort of autonomy for the Kurds to control the region.
Kurds asks help from the West but they do not realize that they are gonna live with Turks, Arabs, Persians etc. Stop being a tool of US+IS interests and learn to live with others side by side. Besides, Kurds land claims are absurd. You want land from Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria... and expect them just to say, "OK... here you are" ??? lol
Only logical thing to do in the Middle East is to give Kurdish people a autonomy it will help the area with stability and all the minorities a safe life
Inclusivity is a prerequisite for the future stability of Syria. And why would that be just a concern of "the collective West"? Why are you always hiding behind us? Man up, for once. Lack of inclusivity doesn't seem to prevent your lot from presenting yourselves at our borders as asylum seekers (read: economic migrants). Why don't you pick more inclusive hosts?
There is difference between respect for minorities in Syria and granting autonomy. Kurds want kurdish State within Syria. That is non starter for the HTS otherwise all other minorities will demand the same as the kurds!
The SDF is occupying a quarter of the country's land, including it's oil producing and most arable land, but Kurds only make up 10% of the Syrian population.
Why autonomy is not part of Human rights, especially if the jihadis apply Sharia. Then the democratic secular people have a right to autonomy. Nobody should be subjected to medieval cult laws if they dont want them
@@Qaadiriye Who are you to decide what is best for the Kurds. Let them decide what is best for them. You are probably a T0urco-jihadi who only wants to slaughter Kurds
@jawan8908 There are close to 3 Million Turkmen and close to 2 Million Kurds in Syria. There are officially over 4 Million Syrians in Turkey. 2-4 Million more if you count the non-registered ones. All included there should be 25 Million Syrians. So the dude is right.
@ If there are so many of them, then why didn't they take part in something military? There are fewer Kurds, and they have more military skills. Anyone who wants to show themselves should be in the countryside. There are 5 to 7 million Kurds in Syria.
Turkmen? They have a few villages in Syria that’s all! Turks are trend to exaggerate as you do 😄 there are more Circassians are more than Turkmen in Syria.

@@3TTriple nice try i just Googled the Wikipedia article and here it is . "The Kurdish population is estimated to be between 30 and 45 million.[3][4] Most Kurdish people live in Kurdistan, which today is split between Iranian Kurdistan, Iraqi Kurdistan, Turkish Kurdistan, and Syrian Kurdistan.[ " that was made based on data from the mid 2010s thats 10 years old in that article the stats estimate the numbers basids on old data like in iraq that haven't updated ints population number data for years in that Wikipedia article it says there are 5.5 million kurds in iraq but we in iraq did a population count just a month ago and the krg ares of iraq (dohok erbil sulimanyah provinces) alone have over 6.8 million kurds thats without kurds in Mosul and karkuk and salahiden and dyala and bagdad province the tutal number of kurds in iraq is now around 8.7 million from 5.5 to 8.7 million in around 15 years is a good groth and thats the norm for most kurdish populations in the middle East.
i feel like there has to be some kind of multi way agreement between the kurds the hts and turkey, whereby the kurds publicly and officially denounce the actions of the pkk in turkish territory and recognize the authority of damascus, where turkey backs off on its control of the SNA and its fight against the Syrian Kurds, and where HTS recognizes some level of autonomy of the kurdish region in northeastern syria. this cannot be allowed to scale into more conflict.
We Are Kurd not arab , those 10% are 3.5 million Kurds but palestinians are 1.8 million , all world say palestinians can have country but 60 million Kurds can't ❤️☀️💚
If a measly 3-4M Israelis can have their own state, lands they seized from the Arab countries, surely the 65M+ Kurds needs their own country as well. I mean, even Croatia and Kosovo have one. It's time for the Kurds in Syria, Iraq and Turkey to unite and fight for their own country! The US and EU backs them..
Is there a reason why syria don't go to federation system since I came from Malaysia and is not so bad but because middle east have no experience with federation. Is that why? To give you perspective, in Malaysia there is malay majority state and chinese majority state, other natives majority state, and hybrid state. Some state is monarchy and others is republic and at national there is elective monarchy, largely symbolics. Vernacular school is also a part of constitution like mandarin and tamil. Obviously not ideal but pratical for keeping the peace.
The SDF is occupying a quarter of the country's land, including it's oil-producing and most arable land, but Kurds only make up 10% of the Syrian population. Turkey literally tried to ally with the PYD/YPG in the second quarter of the 2010s and had a peace agreement with the PKK in the first half of the 2010s. The PKK reneged on it and the YPG rebuffed the offer, and they resumed attacking Turkish civilians and soldiers. The Syrian Civil War and US backing was just to profitable and enticing for them. They also don't want to share power in their own region, the SDF / AANES is one-party dominated regime.
Another fifth of Syrian land is occupied by the US military itself in the southeast, centered around the Al-Tanf Military Base which borders Jordan and Iraq, and which was propped up from Jordan's side of the border. The US military also occupies SDF land. Basically up to a third of the country is occupied by the US.
The establishment of an independent Kurdish state has become an increasingly salient issue, warranting critical examination in light of the Kurds’ distinct cultural, linguistic, and historical identity, as well as their longstanding pursuit of self-determination within the framework of international law and geopolitical dynamics.
So what new. US always do that. Afghanistan last time also same. Police and soldiers speak northern language driving pickups with masood poster Local pashtuns enemy.
All these areas, were lands of various groups like Jews, christians, Druze, khurds ets and they are forced to fight for their survival ever since Islam spread 'peacefully' acrosss
Disturbed "democratic" what? Assad didn't do democracy, and neither does his former BFF Iran. The latter's proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah, don't care much for it either.
Imagine how the English treated Irish, Welsh and Scottish few hundred years back… they hate them for not being them when they were forced to become culturally Turkish. Turkish nation state is based on everyone being forced into the same cultural group, issue is that there’s ethnic groups with different cultures that have been living there longer than the Turkic ppl. The Turkish government even forcefully removed three Kurdish mayors in three predominantly Kurdish areas this year on the basis they were Kurdish first their politics second.
The Turks want to keep the Kurds as a subject race, a status that no Kurdish group accepts, and this is why armed insurgency led by the PKK movement since 1979. The Greeks broke the shackle long time ago, now the Kurds struggle for it
Turkey doesn't dislike the Kurds, it dislikes the PKK/YPG that want to break Turkey and Syria up to establish their own country, most Kurds do not support an independent state and are happy to live with the many different ethnic groups that make up both countries.
Let me say my story; I was 7 years old and I was travelling with my family frequently by bus. I had very nice relation with bus drivers. One day I was going to school and one bus passed near me and driver waved his hand to me. He was one my favourite driver. Next day I heard everyone talking about something in town. They were saying PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party) stoped the bus, got 40 passangers and my favourite driver out, and start shooting at them. So that little town lost 41 people in one night. For years, I was always scared to travel by bus. It might seem so easy from your eyes but it is not easy to pass those traumas
maybe a federation concept would do as all the parts have their grievances but the Kurds are the ones who suffered the most from Turkish oppression. Syria needs to find a Syrian way to deal with internal balances and provide their bulky neighbors with security guarantees without being too sensible to their influences or the country will fell in another decade of instability or a tyranny not so much different from the one they just ousted. Now that's easy to understand, then other factors set in like personal interest, money and a religion that too often is not inclined to dialogue and considers human rights a liability rather then an asset
Even in the so called kurdish area of Syria kurds aren't an overwhelming majority, It's just one city . Being secular doesn't mean they should be allowed to carve Syria. Assad was secular too btw.
The Kurds have been the most reliable partner in the region for 20 years.

Not for west to decide especially in Syria where they are not isolated geographically.
How 10% of the population hold half of country? Kurds are minority in syria.
They were attacked by ISIS, they defeated ISIS and got the land. Can you provide evidence that Kurds hold half of Syria?
America bro.... They do that everywhere.
they have it because they fought isis for it and took it back
Because while Syrian Kurds were fighting against ISIS, other groups were leaving Syria. Kurds lost thousands of warriors to protect these lands.
Kurds are 14-15% of the population and control roughly 25% of the land FACTS
The collective West should support hts to stabilize Syria instead of talking about inclusivity which they themselves do not practice
