Disagreed!
Jordan is not willing to participate and that totally block KSA.
Syria is turkey's backyard.
We already took care of our own backyard in Bahrain and Yemen.
Yes, I care. Your whole SLV technology (barely better than Israel) is far behind Russian SLV tech. Look at the latest Russian ICBMs or SLVs (The last Soyuz launched less than a week ago.). Your best SLV is a four stage liquid based missile that finally you got after millions of try and error...
I wish you has spent those efforts in your backyard in Syria. NATO uses Turkey wherever it wants but never pays back when the time comes.
You are proud of being US footmen in Afghanistan.
If you sum up all Arab countries, you will get only KSA.

4. Russia's anger
5. Most importantly: ANTO and US back stab (very...

Yes, But ground forces...
To Surenas:
That is my point. As a regional power, you should be confident of your forces and step in.
Is Iran worried about the aftermath of its involvement? No.
I am not blaming your country. You are pretty good for your own benefits (Shia benefit).
I have a question for Turkish brothers:
Why is Turkey chickening out in the Syrian issue? FSA has relied on them. Why is Turkey waiting for NATO to act? You know that Syrian army, although not week, can not handle your forces.
If you want to be a regional power, you should act like a regional...
