US-Turkey “Buffer Zone” to Save ISIS, Not Stop Them
By Tony Cartalucci
Russia’s intervention in Syria has derailed US regime-change efforts aimed at Damascus. It also threatens America’s secondary objective of
dividing and destroying Syria as a functioning, unified nation-state.
Long sought after “buffer zones” also sometimes referred to as “free
zones” or “safe zones” still stand as the primary strategy of choice by
the US and its regional allies for the deconstruction of Syria’s
sovereignty and the intentional creation of a weak, failed state not
unlike what the US and NATO left within the borders of Libya since 2011.
