Turkey Invades Syria

The Turkish army sent hundreds of soldiers and thousands of radical islamists into Syria three days ago allegedly to eliminate ISIS, but in reality to stop the Kurds from establishing their own state. American airstrikes started off the invasion, providing air cover for the Turkish army.

Make no mistake, this is an illegal action. The army of one sovereign state cannot invade another sovereign state without provocation. This is a de facto declaration of war.

Remember, Erdogan is an Ottomanist. He plans to use the army to "create a safe zone" 40 kilometers deep by 90 kilometers wide in the border region of Syria, effectively carving out a huge chunk of Syria and putting it under indefinite military occupation. This land also just so happens to be the area the Kurds managed to liberate from ISIS. Turkey didn't move on Jarablus - the city they now occupy - until after the Kurds decided to make it their own.

Turkey has also launched unprovoked attacks against Russia, shooting down Russian jets well within Syrian airspace. Should Turkish and Russian forces meet within Syria it is anyone's guess whether Turkey will attack or not. And if they do, if war breaks out between Turkey and Russia, then all of NATO, including the United States, will be dragged into a world war. This is the goal of the neocons like Hitlery Clinton and the war criminal Paul Wolfowitz, the architect of the Iraq War, the man who lied to get the US to invade Iraq, at the cost of 4,500 US lives and $1.1 trillion. These people are salivating over war with Russia because it means more expansion for the military-industrial complex, and the lining of their own pockets with even more money. Neocons like Clinton and Wolfowitz are greedy beyond imagination, and they dream of taking the biggest prize of them all: Russia.
