I think we might reach a tacit understanding with Russia that the weapons supplied to either side not significantly escalate the conflict, that if one side imbalances the equation, the other side will counter it. Always with Israel as the wild card, to carry out unilateral action if it feels threatened.
A mystery at this point is why the northern Syrian Kurds have just gone into an isolationist mode, without using the opportunity to increase ties with the Iraqi Kurds. Hopefully they have been, discreetly.
If Syria does implode, the Kurds have a possibly unique opportunity to jump ship, with the Iraqi Kurd Peshmurga army large enough to guarantee their departure.
You think Turkey would go along with that?
“Always with Israel as the wild card, to carry out unilateral action if it feels threatened.”... If Israel feels threatened?
