There is nothing Turkey can do to convince the West of anything.
Turkey is on the nose and not on the in. America doesn't care what Turkey wants.
If America or any of its allies decide to attack Syria, it is because it is in our interests to do so to remove Assad. The West does not need any permission from Turkey or even consider what Turkey has to say over the matter.
Turkey and Russia are in the same basket.
The West has its own interests and we also have Israel's interests but Turkey isn't even in the ballpark!
And yes, we do have a score to settle and it will be settled, whether this year or in 2 years time, Assad can't move because we will be waiting for him. The only safe place for assad is in a buncker 20 meters underground.
And yes, if Chemical Weapons are used anywhere in Syria, then the Syrian Military will be attacked by Western Forces and also by Israel. We will not even be asking any questions. The Tomahawks and our planes will already be enroute.
We don't care about pootin or Russia. The Russians will NEVER attack us or intervene, because they need us for China. That is their bug bear.
