An American military officer points to a map showing areas of Iraq and Syria controlled by the self-proclaimed Islamic State, April 21, 2016 (DoD/Dominique A. Pineiro) It has taken at least 400,000 dead and over ten million internally and externally displaced Syrians, but we are finally coming to the end game of the Syrian Civil War.
Last week, Turkey’s Recep Erdoğan blithely announced in a news conference that Raqqa, the capital of the Islamic State, would be the final target of the Turkish invasion.
Today, Pentagon sources leaked that the United States might send large combat forces into Syria.
This comes on the heels of talks between Iran, Turkey and Russia aimed at ending the conflict.
At long last, a confluence of interest is emerging that is the beginning of the end of the Syrian civil war.
