(Ha'aretz) Zvi Bar'el - The U.S. decision to withdraw from Syria means the U.S. will evacuate the base at al-Tanf on the Syrian-Iraqi border, which acted as a deterrent to the entry of Shi'ite militia units into Syria. The U.S. will also evacuate its northern bases, which served as a base for strikes against ISIS, and it will also give up the idea of setting up observation posts along the border with Turkey which would protect the Kurds. This would leave the city of Manbij, now under Kurdish rule, open to a Turkish occupation, from where it could spread to other Kurdish enclaves east of the Euphrates. The Kurds will have to decide whether to wage a long and possibly hopeless war against Turkey, or to seek shelter with Moscow.2018-12-21 00:00:00Full Article
