...NATO is a defense pact, not an aggression pact....

Nor, is it a suicide pact to protect against minor border incursions. Leave Turkey to the islamics.

Exactly.

Not only that:
- Turkey violated Greek airspace over 2000 times just last year alone - not a shot was fired.
- Turkey has repeatedly refused to let the US fly over Turkish territory in its tussle with Iraq and for other regional skirmishes

For these reasons alone they should have been kicked out of NATO long ago.

Hells bells, for the reasons you stated NATO should bomb Turkey.

Turkey is a back stabber.

I have no doubt they gave Putin assurances he could use that space.

And remember they blocked us right before Gulf War 2. It’s a big reason Northern Iraq was FUBAR all along until now.

Turkey put boots on the ground in Iraq to fight the Kurds while we were still there.
