Turkey On Board Against ISIL

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...y.html?hpid=z1

Incirlik Air Base open for business in the fight against the DAESH/ISIL. That's a major step for Erdogan.

Predictable given recent reports of ISIS violence on Turkish soil.

Don't mess with Turks.

The Turkish military fighting ISIS, side by side with the PKK. Now that's an interesting prospect, eh?
