Possible War Looming Between Sryia and Turkey? US Warns on Syrian Troop Movements

www.bbc.co.uk...

In amongst all the other rising tensions around the world, and especially in the Middle East, Syria has moved troops very close to the border with Turkey, and there are fears of tensions escalating between the two countries.

There seems to be an escalation of conflicts around the world in the last six months or so, in many different areas. I'm wondering if this is all going to boil over into something much bigger and widespread?

"Citizens Arrest" anybody?
Hah, any takers...

Some arms which went to the hands of Gangs and thugs came from the Turkish side of the border, some arms came from the Jordon side of the border, some came from Lebanon, the Iraqi side of the border was already protected.

Syria was stupid to leave its borders unprotected, no one is to blame except the president's naivety.

There was an incident where Turkish military observed several Syrian military units approach a hilltop observation post, lower the Turkish flag and ran up a Syrian flag. The Senior Turkish commander on the ground stated they were observing Syrian movements, and the Syrian ambassador to Turkey has been summoned.
