Very bad situation.

This does not look like it is being contained.

Turkish forces still in Syria and the shelling on border towns is continuing.

PKK made threats this morning of retaliation for Turkish bombing of Singal and in Syria.

Go see the currently playing film “The Promise” to get an idea of what Erdogan is up to.

If you think what the Turks did to the Armenians was bad wait until you see what their doing to the Kurds.

The Kurds are now battle hardened soldiers. With any support at all, Russia or US. Turkey will be defeated by them.

It is still possible that the Kemalist in Turkey could step in. Even after the still ongoing purge.

So where is McCain demanding the ouster of Erdogan? I mean we are seeing attacks that are leaving dead Shia civilians. Or are Shia lives inferior to Sunni lives?

McCain is a dog that is trained to respond to money. Flash bucks? It’s the only time he jumps or barks.
