I know. I think that some folks believe Turkey is getting too much control of pipelines from the Caucus and Middle East. They want a separate option via Syria and would build an LNG facility there.
They already have LNG port. The largest cost in Natural Gas transport is the liquification and the vaporization operation. There would be no justification build that pipeline and still convert to/from LNG.
The pipeline is only economic if it avoids going to LNG altogether and stays gas pipeline to pipeline.
Avoiding ship travel around the Saudi Peninsula while still going to LNG does not justify the pipeline.
