CNN: ISIS Prisoners Have Escaped as Turkey Invades Kurdish Detention Facilities

‘The fear of those ISIS prisoners escaping is one reason that many are concerned about the withdrawal of U.S. troops’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BROWNE: “It’s not exactly clear what the president is referring to. Now, the U.S. military has acknowledged taking two ISIS, high-profile ISIS prisoners, members of the British ISIS execution cell known as the beetles. The U.S. military has acknowledged taking those two individuals into custody, holding them outside of Syria. But the kurdish-led Syrian democratic forces were holding some 10,000 ISIS members prisoner, including 2,000 foreign fighters, several hundred of which are from Europe. So not clear exactly what the president’s talking about, because two out of 10,000 is a relatively small number. But again, the fear of those ISIS prisoners escaping is one reason that many are concerned about the withdrawal of U.S. Troops, as Turkey has attacked several kurdish detention facilities. There are reports that some ISIS members have been able to escape. And so, again, the withdrawal of U.S. Troops really paralyzing the U.S. Fight against ISIS and risking the gains against that terror group, as the Kurds now seek help from Russia and the Syrian regime to help defend them from the Turkish attack. So, a lot of chaos on the ground in Syria as news of the U.S. Pullout has been made public. Alex?”
