Syrian warplanes continue to strike along the border with neighboring Turkey, as rebels backed by the Turkish government set up shop over an ever-growing amount of territory along the frontier.
With shells falling mere meters from the border, the sense that they are “in the warzone” is growing for Turkish residents of border provinces, and while the Syrian military’s strikes rarely cross the border, the constant rebel presence on both sides of the border adds to the sense that the fight spans both sides of the border.
Turkey is by far the most effected of Syria’s five neighbors, but they’ve all felt the war in one way or another, from rebels killing Jordanian troops along the border to sectarian clashes breaking out in northern Lebanon.
Even Israel has ratcheted up their alert, though so far only a stray mortar shell and a lot of bellicosity seems to have resulted. In Iraq the impact is less direct still, with violence clearly rising along the Syrian frontier but the amount directly related to increased Islamist activity in the region difficult to measure in any real way.
Hillary Clinton thought the Syrian war is walk on the beach when she and her "friends" in the region told here is OK with us but you be in charge. As always she calculated wrong, as always the democrats have calculated wrong, so is her boss doing now. They.., EU and US are not eager for this war to get bigger effecting Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel and Egypt, where later in time this war might drag in the Iranian so the Iraqi and perhaps Russian and China as well as Saudis and UAE, so the entire region would be in flame, however, these people (EU & US) have no respect for anything so they will continue with supporting what is not their, yet to do and say all kind of lies for what is SNC which don't have no support whatsoever in Syria. Look: you lost so take your falsified democracy and go home yankee.
