The Turks are allowing ISIS to take care of their Kurdish problem, much like the Stalin allowed the Nazis to clean out Warsaw. Also, much as FDR was sympathetic to “Uncle Joe’s” ambitions, Obama is completely copacetic with the Turks’ goals.
And Obama refuses to help the only ally we have in the Middle East. He keeps referring to the delicate balance of Iraqi cooperation. While these people bleed and die for the same thing Americans have bled and died for until Obama came along.
