#1 Then there's this, from Debka. They claim Turkey can't operate the drones they bought from Israel without the Israeli technicians that came with them (much like the Saudi air force and their Western technicians), and the U.S. won't sell them any until they stop threatening the Jewish state. Also, without the information we've been sharing with them, they don't know where to attack the Kurds.

Life is hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.

#2 Wouldn't it be funny if, as a result the IFF systems change, all all Turkish F-16s also ended up being identified as hostile?
