(Jerusalem Post) Jeremiah Rozman - Turkey's invasion of Syria stems from domestic political considerations, not security concerns. Erdogan wants to boost his Justice and Development Party's ratings after a dismal electoral showing in June when the party lost Istanbul. By invading Syria and forcibly resettling millions of Sunni Arab Syrian refugees in the homes of Turkey's Kurds, Erdogan hopes to stoke nationalist pride. The SDF is not a threat to Turkish security. The Turkish military, the second largest in NATO, is more than capable of defending its borders without invading Syria. There has been no recent cross-border aggression from Syria into Turkey, nor is there evidence of cross-border material support from the SDF to the PKK. The writer is a national security analyst for the Association of the United States Army.2019-11-08 00:00:00Full Article
