#4 Erdogan and the AKP look like losing the election, which they do, and need a crisis.

Fortunately, NATO decides this is strictly Turkey's problem and WWIII is averted.

#7 Neh, Besoeker. If that was a plan, the escalation would be over Ukraine.

#8 No g(r)om, this is just the head fake to conceal the real escalation. There is a plentiferous variety of places to go around the world from the Mexican border, to the European invasion to the South China Sea.

So many possibilities for starting a crisis.

#9 Actually, it's fairly easy. You start by electing a feckless, spineless POTUS with a huge ego who was totally unqualified to be POTUS. That POTUS then proceeds to bow and apologize to mideast potentates and blames America for everything wrong in the world. His bona fides include having a mother who was a communist and a father who was a Muslim and a mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, who was a communist. Hang around with a few neighborhood terrorists from the '60s, worship at the altar of Saul Alinksy (along with HildaB) and you have a perfect storm.
