Since Turkey is a NATO country, does the U.S. have to come to their defense?

No. Turkey is the aggressor here. Now, if the Syrian army had started things by crossing over into Turkey, that would be a different story.

Turkey is invading another country.

They are on the offense.

Maybe if turkey was getting attacked on their own country. I can’t see us coming to turkeys aid if Syria attacks Turkish forces in Syria. That would be stupid ifvwe did.

Who cares... Turkey is not being attacked plus if Turkey goes too much on the offensive, Trump could end up making Constantinople great again by proxy (And some assistance).
