• As a result of the decline of the opportunities of the political settlements and the resorting to escalation by Turkey to assemble more of the military cards waiting for the start of the Russian-US negotiation, and the emergence of new scene, the Kurds feel that they are the first target and that their sacrifices in the war on ISIS under the US umbrella perhaps are not enough to prevent the barters at their expense as happened in Manbej previously, when America demanded from them to withdraw to appease Turkey.
• The Kurds of Syria and their leaders know that the endeavor of the Syrian government to represent them in the opposition delegation was not affected by their mistakes against their country, and their US allies have not made any effort to impose them as negotiators. They know as well the continuation of the permanent Russian endeavors despite their being far from Moscow toward Washington.
• The Kurds of Syria and their leaders know that their fight against ISIS and their standing against the Turkish occupation of their country is appreciated by their country and the components of their people, since they are the closest armed factions to their army despite all of what happened in Hasaka previously, and that the areas of their presence are not military goals for the army.
• The next difficult stage requires from the Kurds of Syria a courageous position through putting aside the talk about the future issues and disputes, and making open cooperative relationship with the Syrian army and the Syrian country against ISIS, the Kurds, and their militias.
