Abstract

The article reports that some of the U.S. Special Forces officers who fought with the Kurds in Syria are saying they feel deep remorse at orders from the U.S. to abandon their allies. Topics discussed include the feeling among the Kurds of being betrayed following the pullback orders, the move by the Kurds north to reinforce their comrades, and the close ties that the American Special Forces and other troops had built with their Kurdish allies.
