I believe Erdogan supports ISIS

He does. And he's in for a nasty shock.

ISIS is one of those organizations that won't hesitate to bite the hand that fed it when Turkey's support, in Syria especially, has outlived it's usefulness.

Without America there is no NATO. It's a concept that should have ended in the 70's.
Now it has become a shakedown of US treasure and has been infiltrated by every despot
on the planet who hate America. I see no reason to support those who want us dead.

Rome paid for peace and it killed them. We have a responsibility to ourselves first.

Fourth war in less than a century?

Actually sixth, if you count the Danish War of 1864 and the Seven Weeks' War of 1866, both caused by Prussian aggressiveness. Germany post-1871 was just an enlarged Prussia.

Southern flank of the USSR... but Turkey used to be a more secular state then.

I think they jumped the shark somewhere around Libya.

They "jumped the shark" long before that...
