As far as I’m concerned Turkey has revealed itself as an enemy of the United States and the West over the past 11 years . We should take these marooned Turkish officers and use them as intel sources to help us dismember Turkey’s islamofascists movement and save the West and Turkey.
Or alternatively, we should take them as a simple matter of human decency and national moral integrity, if there is such a thing.
Erdogan was a big promoter of the Muslim Brotherhood President of Egypt, Mohammed Morsi, when the Arab Spring was in swing.
Now his army is meddling in northern Syria doing IMHO what the Russia-Assad haters want him to do, set up a ‘safe zone’ for opposition to Assad.
Thirteen years, going back to their unwillingness to help us in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
