I was telling my girlfriend this morning that it was most likely a false flag engineered by Erdogan to help advance his agenda of topping Assad.
Erdogan has a toehold in Syria, but he’d like to go balls deep into Syria. Can’t do that with the Russians in Syria and Assad in power.
Erdogan is hoping to provoke a pity party in the West, so that the West will do the dirty work of removing Assad for him.
They are safe for now, but they better not throw any babies out of incubators.
