He's forgetting quickly that at one point there were people from his own country annnnddd religion who were protesting and trying for a coup. I'm seeing the next Syria and it won't be good for Turkey. Russia is waiting in the wings though and would just love to "SAVE" the Turkish people.

I feel for the Kurds, they seem to be the most civilized out of The Who,e region, yet they have no country.

We should have given the Kurds their own country long ago and created a neutral zone with a US airbase between that Kurd nation and Turkey. That would solve a lot of US problems with air power and having troops in that location would have prevented a ton of the non-sense that has occurred in the last decade.
The Kurds have been good allies. Its bad business to treat trust worthy allies worse than enemies or ambivalent parties. Doing so gets you fewer of the former and more of the latter.

Indeed. They've been great allies of the US so far. America should be more supportive of them.

The end times prophecy of Ezekiel 38 & 39 coming to fulfilment right before everyone eyes. 2600 years after it was written.
Too bad most have never even read Ezekiel, much less chapters 36-39.

Totally agree, watch Turkey, they are the key, when they flip to the Russian and Iranian side things are about to happen.

Yep
They already made an official pact in recent weeks and have formed an open alliance.
First time in 2600 years since that prophecy was written that the people of these regions have come together both politically and militarily and have military bases right on the northern borders of Israel.
Just as written in Ezekiel 36-37, it had to first be proceeded by a return of the lost Jews to the Holy Land in the latter days. That was fulfilled in 1948. Once the Jews return to the land they had to prosper and become a strong nation again, STILL rejecting their Messiah.
Check, check and check.
Even with the Palestinian issues, they dwell safer and prosper more today than they did nearly the entire ancient kingdom era. Only at the peak of Solomon's reign were they ever more prosperous and safe.
Everything is unfolding just as written. If much of the world only had eyes to see and ears to hear. Even half the church is totally ignorant of Bible prophecy, particularly books like Ezekiel.

The worst thing to be in the Middle East is a US Ally. The Kurds are once again paying the price for allying with the US, who provoked Turkey into action and will sit back and watch the Turks punish them. The Russians are more than willing to comply, as it will further strain US-Turkey relations.

Which is one reason why the best thing we could do might be to GTFO and stay TFO.

Also probably no one has read Leviticus 11:13
"These, moreover, you shall detest among the birds; they are abhorrent, not to be eaten: the eagle and the vulture and the buzzard"
If you think I'm going to stop eating eagle and vulture you cray-cray.

True. But this could end up being interesting. Trump plays the game differently from his predecessors.

Turkey is more important strategically than the Kurds. That's the unfortunate reality.

If you think you are an Israelite from 3400 years ago still under the law of Moses you are even more cray-cray than you imagine.

Time to kick Turkey out of the EU and out of NATO. Turkey's agreement was not to be a dictator country which they have become.

Except its no longer clear if Turkey is even an ally anymore. lol...I'd put them in the ambivalent category right now.
