Turkey is playing a major role in preparing a military push on NATO’s behalf into Syria, exploiting and militarizing the ongoing popular protests against the repressive Assad regime in order to install an imperialist-backed puppet regime...The unrest in Syria...has been largely led by Islamist forces sponsored by the Gulf monarchies, particularly Saudi Arabia. Turkey’s intervention threatens a full-blown civil war and a wider conflagration in the region.
