The Pentagon has just said that the US has effectively shut off Syria's airspace in northern Syria, reducing the possibility of Turkish fighter jets supporting the invasion.
One minute, the media makes you believe that the US has abandoned the Kurds and given Erdogan free reign to run amok in northern Syria. The next day, Trump is tweeting that he will decimate the Turkish economy if there is any attack on the Kurds..
Personally, i think Erdogan is being drawn in to a long and drawn out battle that he will never win.
he is a dangerous man that will bring thousands of Turkish soldiers back home in body bags. Then become a fugitive or hang himself.

Erdogan attacks at his Iraqi border too, to secure the escape route, and supply of its adversaries (whoever they are).
...the risk is that Erdogan will reach out to Russia for help, toward 'policing' Syria; not just the "corridor", but the land in Syria it adjoins. In such a situation, American values, and interests will be excluded, provided that their alliance can maintain the appearance of protecting Syrians universally.
...as ridiculous as it seems, i am still convinced that this conflict, like those in the Aegean, will be linked to the Cyprus Problem. Let's not forget, Erdogan rejects the Treaty of Lausanne. In affect, all of Turkey's Foreign Policy revolves around a ''new'' Turkey, beyond this Treaty.
He seems to be steadfast in this regard, ready to fight, for "Turkishness", he is just as ready to negotiate for Turkey. This is hopeful, if as it is one can have confidence in Humanity, if there is unity among "them", those not "Turkish", toward their Principal(s).
...as such, a Cypriot identity is not anathema to Turkey, and Erdogan's designs. It must have a value though, an equal to the identity of the Turkish State, the Problem ended with the "perfect" solution, (one that can be emulated), is and has always been the goal.
