The Kurds (the leadership) love having their backs scratched with a knife. It's been the greatest impediment to their political rights.

MODERATORS
The Kurds are not remotely unified, neither culturally nor politcally. Very broadly speaking the syrian faction is aligned to the US and would love to be a kurdish Israel, the turkish faction are unaligned and struggle for liberation, the iraqi faction is basically a organized crime group, the iranian faction is pretty well integrated into the iranian state.
Tbf even the so called resistance is split, hamas actually likes the rebels. (Israel is going to turn on them like they did to hamas after it did it's job reducing the clout of Palestinian leftists)
Hamas I think changed their stance IIRC. The guy that recently came out denouncing Assad, was disowned by Hamas and is a former member. I could be mistaken, this whole thing is messy. I wish they could all unite against imperialism then solve those other issues amongst each other.
Edited: Ah I see. This makes much more sense now. Ty.
Waiting for Brace Belden to redeploy. May be he can again play a small part in the US occupying another third of Syria.
If I had a coin for every time a seemingly-Marxist Leninist militant org turns into pro-imperial direction, in the wake of U.S backing, I'd have three, the Khmer Rouge, the Mojahedin e Khalq, et the Kurdistan Workers' Party
What could've been... co-option is fuck
Khmer rouge is equally China's fault, it's a byproduct of the sino Soviet split isolating Vietnam.
Why does wiki think isis and Syrian defence forces are not on the same side?
It isn't called NATOpedia for nothing.
The Kurds are basically renaming their enemy as ISIS just as Hitler named the jews as his enemy instead of the countries he fought.
The Kurds and the US are using fighting ISIS as an excuse to bomb and attack resistance militias.
