Turkey says whoever helps Kurd militia in Syria is 'legitimate target'

...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
 on Wednesday said it would consider a "legitimate target" any group that comes to the aid of Kurdish militia in Afrin in northern Syria.

The threat from presidential front man Ibrahim Kalin came a day after Syrian pro-regime forces entered Afrin, only to come under fire from Ottoman Turkish forces.

Last month Ankara launched a cross-border air and ground offensive backing Syrian rebels against the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) in Afrin.

Turkey has called for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's ouster and supported opposition fighters throughout the seven-year conflict.

Kalin said Ankara does not have any official contact with Damascus, but that if necessary, Turkish and Syrian intelligence could enter into "direct or indirect" contact.
My dear Turkish spokesman, if necessary American or Israeli intelligence could ring the unlisted cell phone President Erdogan uses only to call his Jewish mistress. Contact doesn’t get more direct than that.
