  1. Reserved zone declared by the USA, which is ILLEGALLY invading that part of Syria and STEALING its oil. So these "briefings" are just a farce for corrupt media. Why none of these clowns asks what is the US doing in Syria? All "journalists" in this "show" are cowards and corrupts. Unbelievable.

  2. And why is the illegal occupation of Syria by the USA not brought up? Do these people not understand that the USA backs the Kurds that are PKK terroristists in the eyes of the Turkish. And the mission isn't about ISIS, it is about using the occupied Syrian terroritory as a base to allow anti Syrian Government militants to be protected and continue to destabilise Syria. ISIS has been defeated by the Syrians and Russia in the rest of the country but they still exist where the USA is occupying Syrian territory. This is done purposely. If the USA pulled out ISIS would be destroyed in short order as already proven.

  3. Ce qui est important serais de savoir d’où le F-16 qui a abattu le drone a décollé!
    Si il a décollé de la base de l’OTAN se trouvant à Incirlik en Turquie,je crois que la pilule ne passera pas cette fois…
    Avec un allié comme les États Unis pas besoin d’avoir d’ennemis😂😂😂
    Pourquoi les États Unis ne font pas tomber les avions Russes qui les harcèlent en Syrie ou en mer Noire???😂😂😂
    Les USA s’en prennent à plus faible qu’eux, ils prouvent avec cet attaque qu’ils n’ont pas d’alliés mais que des vasseaux.😂😂😂
    La Turquie devrait quitter cette alliance de voyoux et prendre alliance avec d’autre pays, mais surtout pas les pro-ôtant😂😂😂
    Vivement que la Turquie ce dote de l’arme nucléaire supersonique et remette les pendules à l’heure chez elle et à sa frontière proche!
    Yankee GO HOME!! Le pétrole Syrien n’est pas le tien, arrêtez d’être les pompiers pyromanes de cette planète !
    Bizarrement les drones bombardent des zones terroristes à moins de 500 mètres des américains, personne ne trouve cela bizarre?? que font ces terroristes à moins de 500 mètres des bases Américaines…
    Tout simplement car les américains forment et équipent les terroristes…😂😂😂
    Vous avez toutes les cartes en main mais personne n’arrive à voir l’évidence!!
    Les terroristes sont armés avec des M4 et de moins en moins de ak47 car les russes ont arrêté de les vendre directement au STATE rupture de stock…😂😂😂
    Les drones ont pour la première fois attaqués des puits de pétrole sous contrôle américains qui financent directement le terrorisme avec des sociétés Américaines écrans, ça fait mal au boule voilà pourquoi ils ont voulu donner un message aux Turques
    Sortez tous du système SWIFT😂😂😂
    Les américains vous prennent tous pour des abrutis AMERICA FIRST !!
    Ils sont là où il y a du fric à se faire pétrole gaz uranium, terres rares heureusement que l’on en a pas découvert sur Mars sinon ça serait peuplé depuis longtemps😂😂😂

  4. NATO is a hindrance to Turkey. You didn't sell air defense systems, we bought them from Russia, you didn't give us F35s, and you sent trucks full of weapons to the PKK. Now tell me, are you a foreigner?

  5. For all those people with deep insights who are analyzing this event, it would be nice to take into account three tiny little details. 1. Turkey is making 10,000 military violations per year against Greece, a "NATO ally" (now that I've been forced to use Google+ I find it satisfying and interesting etc etc), 2. Turkey has kept half of an entire country under military occupation for 49 years and counting, and 3. Turkey is performing a genoside every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday (they take the weekends off). Now you can continue your deep analyses.

  6. It is the USA, its NATO ally, that provides weapons to PKK:YPG terrorists who kill people in Turkey, and it is not on Turkey's side. It is the USA that does not see the terrorism committed by Israel and gives a message of support to Israel. Israel has done the same thing many times during Eid al-Fitr, which is the religion of the Palestinians. He also experienced the same pain. I hope you understand what I feel, ISIS is an occupation excuse organization created by the USA.

  7. It is the USA, a NATO ally, that arms and protects the PKK:YPG terrorist organization, which carries out separatism and terrorism against Turkey, a NATO member country. Talking about self-defense is nonsense. Syria and Iraq are Turkey's land border. What is the USA doing in Syria and Iraq? Why don't you ask?

  8. Turkish drone were used in Tigray genocide by Ethiopian government. Turkey and UAE are not good intentional military. The sad part is US company help Turkey to build T-B2 drone and Turkey is keep providing for war crime military uses like in Armenian and Tigray. They Bomb on civilians.

  9. What US forces are doing in Syria?. Robbing the natural resources of Syria and using local Kurds against Turkey. As usual, invading another country. Get out of Syria. Seem to be US already has an military basis in Syria. Who gave the US permission to set up military base in Syria?. Ref, ISIS. It was created by USA to make their stay legitimate. In the long run US will be forcing Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq to act against US terror pocket in Syria.

  10. THE US INQUIERE MAKE FOOL AND DELIBERATLY OF THE US ARMY AND THE PENTAGON …
    PLEASE PRESS YOUR GOV TO STOP THEM FOR EVER TO BE BAN AND DESTROY THE WHOLE INQUIERE MAGAINE ALONG WITH THE FRENCH EMIL ON YOU TUBE READING UKRAIN NEWS AND MAKE DELIBERATE MESS ALONG WTH THE REDUCTED OR MORIS IVESTOR AND THE US ARMY IN EUROPE

  11. TO THE PENTAGON FOR TO BE PASS IT OVER FOR OPEN ASSAULT AGAINST THEM: INQUIERE, 13 News Now Sandboxx all the turmp supporters LIE ABOUT THAT IT WAS OPOSIT AND DELIBERATLY WANT TO CONFUSE THE PEOPLE AGAINST THE US PENTAGON

  12. "Inside a declared restricting zone" says the guy of the United States of Alcapone, illegally operating in Syria and stealing Syria's oil etc. Incredible. The only positive thing about his statement is that he said kilometres and not miles.
