You can reject the conflation of the SDF with the Kurds and still recognize that the hybrid, identity-based conflict now unfolding risks inflicting much deeper, long-term scars on Arab–Kurdish cohesion in Syria. The hatred this conflict is spewing, both on and off the battlefield, is alarming.

The longer this goes on the less likely we'll heal from it. Dividing a country begins by dividing its people, and so rooting for any side to win in the name of a unified Syria is irony. We should focus on ending the fighting, because the consequences will far outweigh any gains from military action.

That’s fair. Are you supportive of the agreement that was reached then?
