The Turks are already fighting at or close to home. I think they view the Libyan campaign as a way to test and train, much as, say, Hitler used the Condor Legion in Spain.

Libya is not close to home for Turkey. They can only resupply by air, or perhaps, sea. Egypt shares a land border with Libya. There are reasons the Ottoman Empire was driven from North Africa. Another reason for its demise, it picked the wrong side.
