Turkey has just launched several air strikes against Kurdish forces in eastern Turkey. http://news.yahoo.com/...
According to the article:
The strikes took place amid heightened tensions between Turkey and the PKK over Ankara's refusal to allow Turkish Kurds from leaving the country to fight against Islamic State (IS) militants besieging the key Syrian border town of Kobane.Meanwhile, Turkey has large forces on the border near Kobane, but is refusing to attack ISIS.
And within the last 24 hours Turkey has loudly denied permission to the United States to use the large air base at Incirlik for air attacks on ISIS. http://www.washingtonpost.com/...
Turkey is certainly not acting like the U.S. ally that it's supposed to be.
Meanwhile there are many reports of ISIS making large advances on several fronts.
WTF is really going on here? I try to have informed opinions on major world events, and I usually think I know what's going on. But not here!
