Erdogan has been helping ISIS/AQ for years. He has denied this but is now openly using militias of "former" ISIS/AQ terrorists, exposing him for what he really is: a radical Islamist megalomaniac who wants to establish a caliphate with himself as the Caliph — the supreme ruler. pic.twitter.com/AQ5zb6Hp08

The recent appointment of former Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration has sparked discussions regarding the future of U.S.-Turkey relations. Gabbard, known for her outspoken criticism of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, has consistently highlighted concerns over Erdoğan’s policies and actions, particularly in relation to ISIS and the Kurdish population, as was reported on Friday on the medyanews.net web site.
In a 2020 video, Gabbard unequivocally stated, “Erdoğan is not our friend,” reflecting her skepticism towards Turkey’s role in regional conflicts. Her military background, having served in the U.S. Army during the 2003 invasion of Iraq, has informed her perspectives on counterterrorism and foreign policy. According to the medyanews.net report, Gabbard has accused Erdoğan of supporting ISIS, asserting that he is a “radical Islamist megalomaniac who wants to be the Caliph.”
Gabbard’s criticism extends to Turkey’s military actions in northern Syria. As per the information provided in the medyanews.net report, she condemned President Trump’s decision to permit Turkey’s 2019 invasion into the region, describing it as “laying out a red carpet, a green light for Erdoğan and Turkey to launch an ethnic cleansing and offensive against the Kurds.” She further accused Trump of deceiving the American public, emphasizing the necessity to protect Kurdish allies from what she termed Turkish genocide.
