In Turkey's Kurdish heartland, distrust erodes peace process hopes
Turkey's crackdown on President Tayyip Erdogan's main rival and silence on what reforms might follow the end of a 40-year conflict with Kurdish militants are stoking distrust among Kurds anxious to see what a fragile peace process may bring.

The developments in the Kurdish-dominated autonomous administration in northeastern Syria create dilemmas for Israel, first among which is what will happen if the United States decides to withdraw its forces. My new piece www.inss.org.il/publication/...

Extraordinary pace of changes today. For years, Ankara promised to "clean up Tel Rifaat and Manbij" (RTE in 2022.) Now, HTS are doing the work. Watch this space.

Nonetheless, the Israel-Palestine crisis is likely to remain a sore point between the two allies going forward. And depending on domestic political considerations on both sides, it could become a serious issue"

Bahceli's handshake spectacle is part of a triple play of co-opt&discipline&divide aimed at the Kurdish movt&its various actors. It is about domestic concerns but not limited to it. Since April, Ankara's assumptions about power balance at the global&regional levels are shaken.

In the justified anger at the Israeli government it’s crucial not to lose sight of the fact that Hamas is a murderous inhuman terror organization. According to sources with knowledge of the details of the autopsy, the six murdered hostages were apparently executed with a shot to the head.
