At a recent ceremony for 250 Arab recruits who had just
completed training with the U.S. military near
Manbij,
the newly minted soldiers were told they would be heading
not to the Raqqa front lines but to Aleppo,
to confront the rebels backed by Turkey, a NATO ally of the United States.
(uuhhmm yeah.. that'd be the same ones chopping heads & starving Aleppo)
As U.S. Special Operations troops looked on, Abu Amjad al-Adnan,
commander of the Manbij recruits, rallied the soldiers to
"take the fight to the forces backed by “terrorist Turkey.”
U.S. advisers are also present on the ground with the Turkish-backed rebels in Syria,
setting up a scenario in which U.S. Special Operations forces
embedded with opposing sides could confront one another.
