| Document:How did the US rename a terror group to work with it | Article | 24 January 2018 | Murat Yetkin | So Mr Tillerson, contrary to what CENTCOM and Brett McGurk keep telling you, the Syrian Democratic Forces are not a “truly multi-ethnic” group of freedom fighters uniting against ISIL barbarism.
