In Syria, Erdogan wakes up to Putin's bloody smile

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey has a pathetic op-ed in Tuesday’s Wall Street Journal.

Titled “The World Must Stop Assad,” Erdogan’s article calls for action to prevent Syrian President Bashar Assad from the slaughter he is about to commit in Syria’s Idlib province. But while Erdogan is right to be alarmed about the tragedy that Assad’s action will create, he has only himself to blame for it. Because Erdogan has been instrumental in putting Assad, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Iran’s Qassem Soleimani in position to effect this atrocity.
