I can't believe there are people out there that actually think she deserved one.

Whoever made that image is a moron. I like Thunberg but she doesn’t deserve a peace prize. Neither did Obama, of course.

I just heard they are a threat to US troops, not that they did anything.

The senior Pentagon official said that Turkish forces should be aware of U.S. positions "down to the grid." The official could not specify the exact number of personnel present, but indicated they were "small numbers below company level," so somewhere between 15 and 100 troops
The official said shelling was so heavy that the U.S. personnel were exfiltrated once the attack had ceased. Newsweek has reached out to the Pentagon for comment on the situation.
