I have lived a total of nine years in three Islamic countries, i.e., Indonesia, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. The Turks were alerted before the attack. They didn't tell us. Ollie North was the only one who seems to have grasped the significance of their early departure.
Thanks.
This attack killed a lot more Muslims than infidels.
Plus, if the Turks had stayed, would their identity have protected them? I think not.
