Yup. The Kurds did very well in the Turkish elections which certainly makes fighting ISIS a lot easier.
I see that Cruz had Saul Anuzis headed to Turkey yesterday to meet with the new lawmakers.

Cruz may be right on this one, but how do we provide incentive to Turkey?
Can we give them northern Syria?
I don't see any reason why not:)

Who can take Erdogan’s place, and how can we know s/he is someone we can deal with?

How many here really expect Erdogan to relinquish power? I don’t. I fully expect him to declare Kurdish votes and MPs to be irrelevant and illegal, as the Kurds are tacitly in rebellion against the Gov’t.
I see Erdogan as a totalitarian in the making.

Hummmm Ted?
I think Obama & Hillary tried that and manpads ended up in Afghanistan with the Taliban shooting down our helicopters.

Yes, we need allies. The Kurds are fighting valiantly and well, but more is needed.

I think that Cruz is being a bit naïve thinking Erdogan will change.
