"We know it’s not Americans bombing us. But it’s still the Americans
doing this to us. If the Americans told a NATO member, Turkey, not to
bombard us, they would not have done it. Everyone in Afrin, we feel like
this is the biggest betrayal of our lives. With the help of the
Americans, we crushed ISIS, we fought for them. The Americans asked us
to do anything, and we did everything. Now they want to get rid of us.
This is the feeling on the street. People are burning on the inside."

Once again the US betrays its allies.  Tragic.  Via Greg Batmarx.
