Today I read that Turkey had taken 60 m of village Qermîtliq, cut down 1300 olive trees to build seperation wall between Turkey and Syria. In the process of researching this I found a recent article that seems to be aware of the interplay of forces in Northern Syria.

I agree with most of the assessment. It appears to indicate that powers that be are waiting on Trump to become involved. If so, i totally approve.

More is happening within Turkey itself.

“Turkey’s parliament approved key articles of a constitutional reform overnight that would allow the president to be a member of a political party and issue decrees, bringing a step closer the executive presidency sought by Tayyip Erdogan.” — 14 January 2017

All Turkish secularists are furious about this.
