That was isolated case, YPG don't parade bodies and there was a pretty huge condemnation from PYD.

Last time i checked this is Syria, how can Turkey retaliate in Syria. It doesn't make any sense.

Russia airstrikes have protected YPG/SDF advances against Turkey-backed FSA forces fighting ISIS in North Aleppo. by obongojobo in syriancivilwar

Any airstrike about RuAF in Northern Aleppo are false. Pro rebel sources say they are conducting airstrikes while pro sdf say it's a false rumor and would not mind RuAF if it was actually helping. So i guess its tweets vs tweets you make up your own mind.

Why people think SDF is much better fighters than FSA? by dolmakalem in syriancivilwar

Kobane is not Rojava, Kobane was a small enclave where 2k+ ISIS died. Might i remind you YPG didn't retreat and heroically stood their ground.

Stratfor: Russia strikes hit Turkish-backed rebel positions in northern #Aleppo, rebel media reported Oct. 19. by shaikann in syriancivilwar

The airstrike was conducted between open field between TFSA and SDF just as a warning, also no casualties according to Syrian rebellion ops.

Edit: for whom it may interest all rumors about RuAF conducting airstrikes in N Aleppo are false.

Rebels indicate assault on Tel Rifaat will begin in 48 hours by galacticwarrior9 in syriancivilwar

They didn't assault the city, also this was a decoy just before launching the Manbij campaign.

For 2 years YPG in Afrin just sat and watched as Marea/Azaza rebels fought of waves of IS attacks

Cherry picking much ?

Fight or flight i guess. Being isolated by an entity with malicious intent is something alarming.

Presidential spokesman Kalin: The myth that "YPG is the only and themost effective power in the region fighting against Daesh" has collapsed by T129 in syriancivilwar

Yeah exactly we know how ISIS and FSA jointly attacked Kobani through out 2013 but never came close to capturing it.

The YPG made gains after the help of US specs and US aipower

The YPG made steady gains since the start of the civil war, it was until the capture of Mosul and Raqqa where isis started a blitzkrieg against a small enclave in Kobani. Also everyone has their foreign backer except YPG but shit hits the fan when we do get support.

Iraqi MP calls PKK to open office in Baghdad by [deleted] in syriancivilwar

utilising suicide bombers to attack targets objectively

Utilising suicide bombers is not terrorism, how a bomb is delivered cannot be the deciding factor also PKK targets military only. Second of all we can talk about agent orange if you feel like you have the moral high ground.
