“There should be no declaration of war against Turkey at this point.”

This can’t even be a possibility at a future point, while both are in NATO.

There is absolutely no American interest in going to war with Turkey, period.

Particularly when you consider the 5000 US airmen located in Turkey at the Incirlik airbase, along with all their aircraft, equipment, etc.

If we start attacking Turkey we're going to need to either evacuate Incirlik, or be ready for it to be encircled and overrun. We don't have nearly enough troops or equipment on the ground to defend it against the Turkish army.
