Interesting. I wonder if they’re going in alone, as a proxy for NATO (help on the side), or doing it openly as the first step in a larger NATO operation (first the Turks to test the waters, then more nations following.)
I believe Turkey is Sunni Muslim and Iran is Shi’ite. My guess is that Turkey would just as soon take back some of their empire disbanded in 1918 as let Iran have it. I’m also thinking that Turkey is a more formidable military machine than is Iran.
