The Big Show about to start?

I thought Kerry had negotiated some kind of deal for a cease fire.

The Turks are coming to the aid of their imperiled fellow Islamists against the Kurds. Russia should shoot down the Turkish warplanes over Syria.

[Jimmy Valentine]

We need to stay out of the way. Also Turkey needs to know we won’t pull their chestnuts out of the fire.

[immadashell]

You need a printed program to figure out what’s going on over there. This is as confusing as the breakup of Yugoslavia.

[BobL]

Russia will neutralize that threat in several hours.

We’ve been so fortunate to have Obama at the helm the past seven years with his incredibly capable Secretaries of State Clinton and Kerry. Otherwise the world would be in a real mess.

commander zero may yet get us into WW III in his remaining 11 mos as pRESIDENT.

[G Larry]

This must be the “ceasefire” John Effin Kerry just negotiated....

(1) Obama’s Turkish pals are showing their support for ISIS.

(2) Turkey is attacking a foreign nation. They should be removed from NATO.

[AlaskaErik]

Time for Putin to bloody Turkey's nose. With Turkey being the aggressor and invader, there is no way NATO is going to back them up.

Saudi's 350,000 Syrian invasion force could start World War 3

" Saudi Arabia said 350,000 forces from more than 20 Persian Gulf Arab nations will partake in an exercise called "North Thunder", according to Saudi media.

Egypt, Sudan and Pakistan are among the participants in the mission that could spark World War 3.

The drill will take place in the northern part of the country, and has been described as the largest military maneuver in the history of the region, according to Press TV.

It is being seen as preparation for a ground invasion of Syria."

[MinorityRepublican]

Is this a credible source?

Aleppo has been a lucrative market for Turkey. They’ll miss the money they made selling food and weapons at emergency prices.
Now it’s supplies will come from Syria.

[Dr. Ursus]

The AA’s were never supposed to rule us. Total incompetence!

[PIF]

"Saudi Arabia is set to send warplanes to Incirlik."

Which airbase I believe is covered by the S400 systems at Latakia. So if the Turks and the Saudis get too aggressive we all learn just how effective the system is.

This is certainly a soup of 50 ingredients.

Now would be a good time for competence in the US govt. When did we actually have that?

[TTFlyer]

We can do nothing diplomatically or militarily until the current jackass occupying the White House is gone.

The Turks never did get along with the Ruskies.
