Israel was the only reliable partner for Turkey until erdo played the palestine card . At-least relations improved recently , hope both countries will return their relations as they were prior 2009 .

Israel lost 4 soldiers few weeks ago from hezbollah atgm attack and responded with limited airstrikes bur this attack was on Israeli territory . Turkish soldiers were attacked in Syrian not turkey so we can't compare situation . turkey us currently fighting a war on 3 fronts against pkk in...

I did not expect turks were emotional like Arabs anyway guys have hope and my condolences goes to the famillies of Turkish matyers . Everyone here should remember that pkk was setup during the Lebanese civil war under Syrian mukabarat back in the 1970s along with Armenian adana terrorist group .

Next few days will show what really is going on . personally I do not think erdo would back down from taking AL bab and Manbij he needs to stop 2 cantons from joining because if that happens it would threaten his own political future in Turkey .

I would rather wait and see before making conclusions . you might be right though it's just these kind of situations seem ambigious and we don't know what's happening behind closed doors

Don't be emotional turkey can't just do that . shooting down a Syrian plane should be sufficient . I don't think turkey will respond to this attack directly but for sure will increase intensity of operations towards AL bab and Manbij

Any source

Guys don't be emotional this is what war is all about . Iran lost over 1000 troops including some of its yoo generals and kept fight . I personally think this attack will only make turkey more determined and aggressive in its current operation against isil and pyd and next time there will be a...

Retaliation should be by taking over AL bab right away . next time tsk soldiers should be covered by mobile anti-air missiles Direct response is not a good answer now while Turkish and fsa forces are still fighting on two fronts . simply increasing support for anti assad forces fighting saa...

You cant Just wait outside , the best tactic would be a war of Attrition against Isil in Al-BAB along with continuous attacks on the town . When rebels attack Al-BAB , they will figure out weak and strong defensive points inside the city would Turkish Airforce and Artillery forces could then...

The difference between Syrian and Turkish islamists is one thing . For Turkish Islamists , their national identity comes first then religion , while for Syrians its the opposite . A Turkish Islamist would never accept to be ruled by a non-Turk while a syrian islamist would accept to be ruled...

They will not break away , simply they will seek to have their own autonomous administration inside Syria under Turkish protection similar to the Kurdish cantons in Syria and KRJ in Iraq . Turkey need security zone 5000KM to setup FOB bases against Kurdish cantons in Afrin and Kobane also to...

The main focus is on recruiting Turkmen Syrians not Sunni Arabs . Groups allied to Turkey have recently increased their ranks such as Nour Din Al Zanki and Sultan Murad . Groups close to Turkey have today between 10,000 - 15,000 fighters . Most of the villages and towns liberated are actually...

Recaptured this morning , Isil are fighting hard for Qabasin to keep forces away from Al-BaB and Bazah towns . The past 2 days intensive Turkish Artillery and Tank bombardment lead to Isil withdrawing today .

What is happening in the winter ?

What is the destructive power ( radius )of one rocket ? how many Buildings can it completely destroy ?

SDF/PKK are trying to build a buffer as the next target will be Manjib . Today FSA controlled 4 villages in eastern BAB . I think the Turkish chief of staff visit to Russia was about discussing Al-BAB operation which started right after the visit was over . He gave Russians assurances that FSA...

Taking over Manjb will end all of this , after Al-BAB the conflict will be solely against PYD . When we talk About Riqqah , we mean Tal-Abyad district which borders Turkey Directly and connects Koban canton with PYD cantons in Hassakah . Turkey should take over Tal-Abyad to Isolate the 3...

Manbij should be next , that was declared several time by different Turkish leaders and FSA leaders . The final step would be riqqah once 5000 KM zone is setup .

I would look at how Riqqah battle would be , it will be brutal like Mosul . For such battles you need armed drones covering armored divisions especially tanks which are protected by infantry troops armed with anti-tank/rockets to deal with bveids and sveids .
