The entire middle east moves from problem to problem. Assad the dictator of Syria remains in power and Iran continues unwavering on it's march in the development of nuclear weapons. Israel cannot gamble with this time frame. Syria and Turkey(NATO) are exchanging fire and Gaza may be heating up again. If this situation does not drastically change soon, I believe the war in Isaiah Chapter 17 will likely take place. Damascus Syria would be destroyed. The worlds economy would likely collapse as a result and usher in a one world government. I wrote a small 6 page book that outlines what I believe the Bible states will take place soon. I don't accept donations and it's free. It's a short read. I encourage you to have a look: http://www.booksie.com/religion_and_spirituality/book/richard_b_barnes/after-the-rapture-whats-next/chapter/1
"Wider war feared between Turkey and Syria"--Why? It would seem that the joining of forces between the Turks and the rebels would bring the mess to a more rapid conclusion. Even though NATO, including the US, is allied with Turkey, it doesn't mean that they would or should, have an active role in the war. In fact, it looks like another job for special forces. Take out Assad, and it will be all over.
Concerned that Erdogan will escalate his military action on Syria which may result in war and involve other nations. United States needs to use all its diplomacy to prevent Turkey from declaring war on Syria. USA should not be allied with Turkey in any war.
Who on the Syrian side would possibly give authorization for this kind of insane escalation and expansion of what is already a horrid civil war in Syria?
It simply makes no sense for the Syrians to take a very bad situation within their borders and, by launching shells into Turkish territory, threaten to involve Syria in a greater war with the Turks, who will clean their clocks.
This is completely nuts. Who in the hell is in charge here?
Maybe I mmissed it, but I don't believe (Mrs) Clinton and/or Obama, our Nobel Prize winning president has/have yet told Turkey they should use restraint.
Please, Muslim Arabs killing Muslim Arabs, like they have been doing for the past 1500 years or more... Muslim Arabs kill, butcher, behead & go to war with other Muslim Arabs all the time, have been & will continue to go to as long as there are two Muslim Arabs to fight & kill.....
The best thing the rest of the globe can do is seal them into their own Nations & leave the rest of the world alone...
Erdogan is a good leader despite all the hate messages.
For once in the past 2-3 decades Turkiye's economy is in check consider the EU crises.
The majority of people who are actively looking for work or are working, are better off.
As a leader you have to make tough decisions and some decisions may conflict with your personal beliefs however it may be better for the nation in the long term.
As an employer of just 50 employees, I know that the decisions I make wont please every employee but it may be of benefit for the business' future growth.
So I ask those Erdogan critics, if you were to produce a stats sheet on key performance indicators for the nation and attributes of a leader, supported by fact - where does Erdogan lack in strength?
I hope Syria would give that Edrdogan a bloody nose that he would not interfer in another country's internal affairs. This war, I hoppe would, go on for, at laest a year to give a lesson to that stupid Erdogan stop messing with another country. He is a classic puppet of USA
Jeffrey Goldberg wrote a particularly nasty opinion piece and Philly.com was more than happy to publish it. Jeffrey write for Bloomberg and The Atlantic. Poor boy. It was not only rubbish but had shades of conservative insanity deeply imbedded in it. Here is what I told him: Warmongering Philthydotcom and I
Warmongering becomes a religion for the conservatives, whenever it suits their political purposes. The very word, liberal, has spoiled your article. There has never been such a insane rush to judge a president as it is today.
Dozens of articles trickle down every day, if not minute of a day or night advising Barack Obama over US (not his personal) foreign policy.
The best thing for such arrogant bunch is to keep their filthy tongues inside their mouth, as they are doing more harm over a matter so very complicated that none could help.
