| #18 We don't hear much about Iran in all this. Isn't Iran allied with Syria and Russia? |

| #15 Is it too much to hope that Turkey will be stupid and accidentally hit the Russians and piss off Vlad? I seem to recall that Turkey shot down a Russian fighter jet some months ago, and the only response was something like a cold Russian shoulder for six months. But at that point Syria wasn‘t ready to pivot to a new battlefront. |

| #8 Is it too much to hope that Turkey will be stupid and accidentally hit the Russians and piss off Vlad? At this point, I'd enjoy seeing someone stomp the life out of Turkey. |

| #5 At this point Syria could win big in the UN Security Council against a Turkish invasion... |

| #4 Turkish president Erdogan says they are not afraid and said that the troops of Turkey will keep advancing more into northern Syria, even if the Syrian Arab Army will be joining the SDF and YPG forces at Manbij and Kobani. |

| #3 Finally. What I was waiting for. Let's hope Putin has actual lead in his pencil now. |

| #2 Does that leave Iran's IRGC neutral or at war with Turkey? |
| Posted by: 3dc 2019-10-13 19:10 |
| #1 Here's how it works: The SSA accepted that the SDF was part of it. Therefore Turkey did not cross the Kurdish border rather it crossed the normal border of the Syrian State. Russia supports the territorial integrity of their ally the Nation of Syria. Russia doesn't need to support or not support elements of the Syrian regime so it's no change in Russia's position. Syria's army the SAA now considers itself at war with the Turkish invader who has crossed it's world recognized international border with Turkey. Russia will continue to support it's ally Syria. |
