#1 Turkish authorities thought they could work with bully boy groups operating inside Syria and at the same time push them to become more moderate.

Appears to be something of a virus.

#2 ["NO TIME FOR SERGEANTS" WILY USAF GENERAL EUGENE BUSH = "THATS RIDICULOUS ABOUT TURKEY, ITS NOT EVEN 2040-2050 YET"!].

IMO The more likely or pragmatic outcome is that, over time = few decades [2030-2050], the ISIS aka ISIL will be effective in destabilizing + taking over most or all of the Turkish Govt-Army.

Ditto IRAN???

* GROONG > [American Thinker] THE END OF TURKEY AS AN ALLY!?

* SAME > ISTANBUL: WILL NATO SET UP MILITARY BASES IN AZERBAIJAN?

Thus hindering alleged Neo-Ottoman Turkey's "Pan-Turkic/Turkic Union" agenda???

versus

* TOPIX > [Trend] TURKISH MILITARY WEIGHS "BUFFER ZONES" AGZ IRAQ, SYRIA THREATS.
