Turkey just invaded Syria.

Unless they were invited in, and I bet they weren’t.

Tells me there's nothing of any value left in Syria.

Attitude of ISIS fighters is like how you feel when you see someone picking through your trash. You want to raise a stink at first, but...

This move prevents the two parts of Kurdish forces from linking up and forming a contiguous sector on Turkey's southern border.

It also exposes them to Russian forces ...

Perhaps a part of the plan to restore the Ottoman Empire. Snag Aleppo and move on to Raqqa...add it to Turkish territory...and as a bonus kill any of the Kurds they come across.

A two-fer. Buckwheat won't intervene on behalf of the Kurds and the Russians just might let them pass just to see the state of Turkish forces before deciding on a course of action.

Those who do not see this as a world war...whatever number one wishes to assign it...is in a delusional state of denial.

JMHO

"Sources reported that ISIS gangs in the area were all unresponsive to the activity of Turkish soldiers, and just watched them as they moved."

And what does this tell us?
