quiet dramatic. Russia is the superpower that controls Syria with a partnership with Assad.
That is the government of Syria - Damascus.. OK and?? that's it .
Russia runs Syria and bleeds a lot of treasure to do it. So let them bleed

Syrian Kurdistan has/had a Constitution that reflects Western Values. A Shining Light in the Darkness of the Middle East. People of YOUR persuasion have effectively snuffed that out.
"The constitution has gained much international attention and is most noted for its explicit affirmation of minority rights and gender equality and a form of direct democracy known as 'democratic confederalism'.[4][5]"

1. Minority Rights.
2. Gender Equality.
3. Direct Democracy.

Russia has stepped into the Power vacuum left by the US retreat. Russia has now taken the Mantle of World Leader from the US. Russia is in Position to Dictate what happens in Rojava (Syrian Kurdistan), NOT the US.
Everything the US has done, is now washed down the drain. Russia is now the Savior of the Kurds.

Turkey agrees to five-day cease-fire in Syria, Vice President Mike Pence announces
Published 19 min agoUpdated Moments Ago

Vice President Mike Pence said Thursday that the United States and Turkey had agreed on a five-day Turkish cease-fire, days after the country’s forces launched an offensive in northern Syria.

“I spoke to President Trump just a few moments ago. And I know the president is very grateful for President Erdogan’s willingness to step forward, to enact this cease fire, and to give an opportunity for a peaceful solution to this conflict that commenced one week ago,” Pence said alongside Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Ankara, Turkey.

The announcement came after Pence and Pompeo met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Pence said that negotiations lasted more than five hours with Erdogan and his team.

Prior to the Pence-Pompeo press conference, President Donald Trump tweeted about “great news” coming out of the meeting in Turkey, claiming that “millions of lives will be saved.”

Pence said the cease fire also involved a Turkish agreement to take no military action against the strategic border town of Kobani, which was taken by Syrian forces allied with President Bashar Assad on Wednesday.

“In addition, the United States and Turkey have both mutually committed to a peaceful resolution and future for the safe zone, working on an international basis to ensure that peace and security defines this border region with Syria,” he said.

I got an idea.
We send in several battalions (you know, Shock and Awe) into Syria to protect the Kurds from the Turks while driving out the Russians who've been an ally of Assad forever, and we get rid of Assad establishing a democracy with Kurds in control as their reward for helping us defeat ISIS.
Then that part of the region will finally be stabilized.
Yeah, that's it.

Graham went reflexively into full combat mode and immediately call for beefing up NATO .
~~
After he calmed down he said the Kurd have to depend on us- or if they don't- they'll have to
depend on da Russians or even the evil Iranians

Syria is too important a hill to occupy unless it's done by the US -and not them damn Russians ( client state)

He's always been a McCainite/Hillary Clintonista war pig. Nothing new there. What's new are so called prog/socialists siding with the neocons as to war. It's a symptom of TDS.
