The risk that the multi-sided Syrian war could spark World War III continues as Turkey, Saudi Arabia and U.S. neocons seek an invasion that could kill Russian troops — and possibly escalate the Syrian crisis into a nuclear showdown, amazingly to protect Al Qaeda terrorists, reports Robert Parry.The American public doesn't know this, since they have been lied to about who the US is backing in the attempt to overthrow the Syrian government and replace the Assad regime with an Islamist one. The only question is who would be dominant, Al Qaeda or ISIS.

This source speculates that the Turkish military stood up to Erdogan.
The Turkish government ... made a tentative decision to enter the war on the ground in Syria – and then got cold feet about it. Or more likely, the Turkish army simply told the government that it would not invade Syria. The Turkish army was very unhappy about the prospect of a military clash with Russia. It does not share Erdogan’s dream of an Islamist-ruled Syria either.
Interesting if true. And don't think that such a situation is unique to Turkey. The folks with the guns always have the real power.
The title should be: Risking nuclear war for Bashar al-Assad?
