what a coincidence the Kurds shutdown IS supply routes to Turkey and now Turkey wants to invade Syria.

either this means. turkey wants to dislodge the YPG from Kobane and Tell Abyad
or use the ethnic cleansing of Arabs by the Kurds as an excuse to get involved in fighting Assad while also ethnically cleansing Kurds from Northern Syria. killing two birds with one stone.

Turkey to send ground troops to Syria, opposition deputy claims

They are not invading anyone. They are simply sending troops in to create a defensive layer so that whoever has been firing at Turkey, can be pushed out inside Syria further. That way, Turkish borders, cities, etc won't take the fire due to this defensive barrier being created. Plus, it would be easy to identify where the fire is coming from as there would be land and air assets monitoring so they can take out whoever has been firing at Turkey.

Lets say Russia sends troops in Alaska to create a defensive layer. I'm pretty damn sure that its a Goddamn invasion.
Or lets say, Iran deploys troops in Turkey to create a "defensive" layer.

Unclear at the moment, Most probably going to help out the Rebels and ISIS. Its impossible for them to support Assad.

Turkey won't allow demographic change in Syria. They are ethnically cleansing Arabs and Turkmen. PKK/YPG doesn't represent all Kurds by the way. This terrorist group tries to seal Turkey's borders. We won't allow this. The US should mind his own business. How would US feel if Turkey did air strikes on your border to help certain groups to hurt the US? If the US wants to help you should take refugees, help with buffer zone and no-fly zone. What US is doing is fueling an ethnic war on top of sectarian war.

Assad doesn't represent Syria any more. Majority of Syrians are in Turkey and they want to go back to their country. We can't have them here forever. If Assad and YPG think they can ethnically cleanse Syria to create a Syria that fits their view demographically. They are mistaken.

Turkish border cities aren't in danger. this is all about opening the supplies lines back up for IS.

You are making no sense and your logic if so off that its not even funny.

Russia and US aren't Turkey and Syria. I think you know that. Second, no one from Alaska is constantly firing at Russia either.....but in Turkey, they even got aerial bombardment many times last year, before their air defense finally took out a Syrian jet. So as you can see, they are not at war, but they are being attacked for over a year and a half now. So consider the entire picture before just responding with illogical sense.

Iran and Turkey aren't firing at each other for over a year and a half. In fact, Iran is about to sell Gas generated electricity to Turkey, Pakistan and the UAE......so what in the world would make you think they can go inside each other in a war situation, when they are doing business???? Let's at least write productive posts please.

how are they ethically cleansing Arabs and Turkmen??? you do know a war is going on and civilians are going to flee right??? they are welcomed to go back to there homes when IS is destroyed.

this is actually what happened when the YPG attacked Tell Aybad all the Arabs and Turkmen fled the coming battle only to be herded back by IS while the Turkish Army watched across the border


if you can PM me some videos of Kurds killing Arabs like IS has I will eat crow.

There are enough videos and photo evidence of PKK/YPG burning Turkmen/Arab villages. They are trying to change the demographic reality in North-Syria. Yes, there Arabs and Turkmen will go back to Syria. We will have observers. If we catch one wrong action from your bastard child YPG, we will burn them. They won't accept these Arabs/Turkmen since they will loose power from those regions. The US is fueling an ethnic war and your bastard child will be lynched soon. Mark my words.

"According to mainstream Western press like CNN, the Turks were forced to evacuate the tomb and its contents due to the escalating violence in the area. CNN also reports that the evacuation was led and conducted with the 40 guards stationed around the tomb.


However, the reality is that the tomb evacuation was actually a relatively large military operation involving about 600 Turkish soldiers, 100 tanks, and APCs.


The Turkish military apparently entered Syria via Kobane (Ayn al-Arab).


Yet, while ISIS presence in towns and cities surrounding the tomb was cited as the reason for the evacuation, it should be noted that ISIS, so close to the tomb, never fired one shot at the Turkish military as it conducted its operations. Since, if Western press reports are to be believed, ISIS is the absolute worst strategist when it comes to avoiding unnecessary conflict with nations not necessarily engaged in combat against it, the fact that ISIS forces would allow the Turkish forces to enter its “territory” without so much as even the threat of violence is questionable to say the least.


What is much more believable, however, is that the Turkish forces acted in coordination with ISIS forces so as to justify an essential invasion of Syria and establish a foothold there as the Israelis direct ISIS forces and bomb Syrian territory from the Southwest and Jordan facilitates terrorism from the South. Of course, the U.S., NATO, and its proxy forces in the eastern portions of Syria simultaneously push toward the same center of the country at the same time.


This is not the first time the tomb of Sulayman Shah has been used to justify Turkish military engagement inside Syrian territory."

I do wonder if the above paragraph is infact true... If it is, It is deeply concerning...
