  1. Yesterday, Turkish foreign minister Fidan threatened “third parties” aka U.S. if they got in the way of Turkey’s war against the Kurds.

    Today, Turkey found out what threatening the U.S. means.

  2. Umm… seems kinda odd that NATO on NATO military actions are taking place.

    We should probably try to avoid this.

  3. I don’t think the rest of NATO really cares what Turkey thinks. In fact, easy to say they regret ever letting them join in the first place.

  4. If I understood this correctly. Turkey is trying to beat up somebody in their neighborhood, US step in and body blocked. Turkey threaten to swing, US smack the weapon out of Turkey’s hand. Now it’s awkward.

  6. Pentagon spokesman Brigadier General Pat Ryder said Turkish drones had been seen carrying out airstrikes Hasakah, Syria on Thursday morning about 1 km away from U.S. troops.

    A few hours later a Turkish drone came within less than a half a kilometer (0.3 miles) of U.S. troops and was deemed a threat and shot down by F-16 aircraft.

    “We have no indication that the Turkey was intentionally targeting U.S. forces,” Ryder told reporters.

    U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke with his Turkish counterpart after the incident, a call Ryder said was “fruitful.”
