    This is a shocking video supposedly showing the passports of foreign #ISIS militants & their families left behind in #Baghouz. The reporter says all have Turkish stamps in their passports. Via @bave_walat pic.twitter.com/htOb3BM0hm

        Turks learned that from Assadists who let many thousands of jihadis into Iraq via Al Bukamal during the worst conflagration in Iraq.

        You are absolutely right. There is a long history of regional and international powers using mujahidiin and jihadists to weaken their enemies. Alas.

        It is known that ISIS fighters & members used Turkish border crossing (along with every other non-regime group in N. Syria). These stamps show there was movement (would be useful to know the dates) but not the motive of the movement. I’m still weary of jumping to conclusions

        All terrorist passports are obtained by America. Without their permission, even a bird can't fly in the Middle East. When it comes to Turkey, it is the most innocent country in the region.

        Admitting you're dumb is great. That's progress of a sort. Sadly the YPG is not a terrorist organisation. In fact, they enjoy broad support from across Europe and America. This is while support for Turkey is going down in the same places.

        did the emir hold the passports and process them in batches? i remember that part of ISIS control of foreign fighters was holding their passports. Judging by this, MIT also used the passports to track & manage movements of fighters inside Turkey.

        Mr. Joshua #Alhadath has no credibility for news regardless. They have faced complaints for faking it, we better be sure what to believe.

        By now way trying to acquit the Turkish authorities or suggest that this didn't happen, but it should be remembered that this is a Saudi TV channel with very little, if any credibility.
