Turkey has now entered into the regional conflict. The Turkish Armed Forces are highly rated. We will see if they live up to their reputation. I think the Turkish leaders see this as a legitimate use of force not only for self-defense against a real threat on their borders, but an opportunity to re-establish Turkey as a regional power in the mold of the Ottoman Empire. Back in the good old days (or bad old days, depending on your viewpoint) when the Turks went on the warpath, the world trembled.
