anti isis?no way…isis is their friend, a valuable ally. they sold Turkey oil in exchange for arms and training….many of them are treated in Turkish hospitals…..of course they are not called isis oficially but ‘rebels’…..its all about the Kurds …no ISIS there
Oh. . . Now Turkey can find ISIL Fighters.
But not when many thousands were transitting through Turkey to Syria. . .
And not when they were sending many thousands of Oil Tankers from Syria to Turkey. . .
Did they just have an eyesight test?
They are arresting them for deserting the battlefields of Syria just as England has done and the US has done and France has done and USSR has done throughout history.
They are trying to force ISIS to return to fighting the people of Syria.
