#1 Hey, Syria! Let's you and him fight!

(/me wonders if there is some way to get the Russians actively involved... like payback for that pilot the Turks shot down.)

#3 The Turks are there to kill Kurds. Remember that when Erdogan says "terrorist" he means "Kurd".

#4 reL#3 For me that's a "yahbut". I know that the Kurds have bye and large been more or less on our side. That's the "yah". BUT I can't trust any of those tribes over there to act in a civilized productive way.

#5 The Kurds have been pretty consistent IMO. I would trust them more that any of the other tribes. Except the Israelis.
