#1 after being purged by Erdogan, is the Turkish military really capable of playing anything but a symbolic role in the Mosul battle?

#2 Note the reference to the Saudis. Will Erdogan tolerate the Shiias winning in Syria, and take it out on the Kurds.

I'm hoping Trump is principled enough to say 'anyone who attacks the Kurds in Syria and Iraq will have cruise missiles raining down on them.'
