The tomb is continuously occupied as sovereign Turkish territory. They just moved it closer to the border. From their perspective it was in the worst possible place.

Only to save their own tomb contents.

But they SHOULD have boots on the ground because they are next in line to be over run by ISIS.

Saving Christians. No.

Saving churches. No.

Saving historic Christians sites. No.

Rescuing the remains of some champion of Islam who was most likely as bloodthirsty and perverted as ISIS is today.

The Turks did this to make it perfectly clear to all concerned that they should not be messed with. Regardless of any unrest or wars in the region.
