Recent reports in the Arabic and Turkish media and social media claim that Turkey intends to establish new military bases in Syria as part of a defense agreement with the new Syrian government formed by Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) under the leadership of Ahmed Al-Sharaa (aka Abu Muhammad Al-Joulani). Turkey has been the primary supporter of HTS, which has a jihadist background “Damascus and Ankara are drafting a mutual defense agreement that includes the establishment of two bases in Homs and Damascus and the deployment of an air defense system against Israeli attacks.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Erdogan has begun his take over of Syria. Now the neo-Ottoman empire will be right next door to Israel. US foreign policy Obama regime style. Get rid of the Jews.

My guess is that Israel will expand their buffer zone to protect the Druze near Golan Heights.

We need a guy named Lawrence to take care of this problem.

I think President Trump will take care of it.

Turkey out of Syria and more importantly now Turkey out of NATO or the US out of NATO.

Makes political sense to me, they share a large border. I negotiated with Turks in Mosul 2006, they are looking out for their interests. Reminds me of Trump’s attitude for his country, America First.

Cool. Now Israel can target Turkey without triggering Article V. Convenient!
