If there is one positive aspect on Dar al Islam, it is that they turn on their own. In response to the downing of a Turkish plane, the Neo-Ottoman Muslim Brotherhood affiliated leader of Turkey, Erdogan, is now openly threatening Syria. The Turks have mobilized Troops on the Turkish border.
The Turkish military mobilized large numbers of reinforcements from its eastern provinces to the Syrian border on Tuesday, amid rising tension with Damascus, after the downing by Syria of a Turkish Air Force jet on Friday, Turkish media reported.
Large numbers of Turkish troops — including at least 15 long-range artillery pieces and tanks – moved to the Syrian frontier from the eastern city of Diyarbakir. A video published by the Turkish Cihan News Agency showed Turkish tanks being transported by carrier trucks toward the
The mobilization followed statements by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan that the Turkish military will respond to any future violation of its border by Syrian military elements.
“As awe-inspiring as Turkey’s friendship is, Turkey’s wrath is equally awe-inspiring,” Erdogan told the Turkish parliament on Tuesday.
“The rules of engagement of the Turkish Armed Forces have changed,” Erdogan said. “Any military element that approaches the Turkish border from Syria posing a security risk and danger will be regarded as a threat and treated as a military target.”
Erdogan closed his remarks with an especially harsh condemnation of Syrian President Bashar Assad: “Turkey and the Turkish people will continue to provide all support until the people of Syria have been saved from this tyrannical, murderous, bloody dictator and his gang.”
This is awesome. Get the popcorn and some fruit punch. I think we about to see some Jihadi vs. Jihadi action brewing! Clearly the Turks sent that F-4 to provoke Syria and have a pretext for a fight. This is typical Islamo-Fascist tactic. Personally I hope the Turks and Syrians kill each other!
