You mean like Turkey was on “our side” during the Iraq War?

The Turks said they are ready to hit Assad even without the UN's permission.
Turkey would join coalition against Syria, says foreign minister - August 26, 2013 - "We always prioritize acting together with the international community, with United Nations decisions. If such a decision doesn't emerge from the U.N. Security Council, other alternatives ... would come onto the agenda...."

Turkish PM: We could never take sides with Assad - August 26, 2013 - "More than 100,000 people have been killed in Syria. Where is the international community? Where is the U.N. Security Council? No sound from them. When we talked, then they say what is to you? Why do you talk? I speak on behalf of my people … You told us to go forward to alleviate the sufferings of the Syrian people, and we are going forward."

By the way, when I say "our side," I mean the USA.
