    Agreed, but I would add (4): we have every right to demand that Turkey take strong measures to avoid war with us, and ask the rest of NATO to back us up on that, instead of playing ostrich.https://twitter.com/josh_hammer/status/1183416216767139840 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    All true: (1) Turkey, under Erdogan, should no longer be a part of NATO. (I’ve been beating this drum for years.) (2) Unless and until (1) is rectified, we live in a world in which Turkey is part of NATO. (3) Given (2), strong measures to avoid war with Turkey are justifiable.

        THIS is what I think is most important. They were shelling our positions, not to mention our allies. I think it's past time for us to figure out how to give them the boot. Or at least hold the threat of it over Erdogan's head for a guarantee of better behavior.

        Another chickenhawk for war with Turkey, a nation of 80 million. What absolute insanity.

        They know our locations and can avoid us. That’s why our men can’t serve as “shields.” Instead, I see too many people wanting to use our men as bait for a war that Congress won’t authorize!

        It might help if we stopped vetoing our allies’ Security Council resolutions.

        We're not "playing ostrich". This is what Trump wants and this is what we're going to get.

        What does that mean? We have a right to do what? The only right that matters is might. So unless we're prepared to go to war with Turkey, I'd say the proper path is to extricate ourselves from the situation. This is exactly why many didn't want to put troops in Syria originally.

        You want NATO to go to war with Turkey over the Kurds?

        Erdogan will open the migrant floodgates of NATO does such a thing. Keeping 3.6 million Syrians out of Europe is far more important for us than the fate of the Kurds. Erdogan holds all the cards here and the Kurds have nothing to give us in exchange.

        Protocol: 1. Terminate Turkeys NATO membership. 2. Threaten to launch strikes on Turkeys forces surrounding Kurdish cities. 3. Immediately implement all sanctions. 4. Give Turkey 5 days to withdraw or their forces shall be destroyed. There is carrier strike groups available.
