Turkish President Erdogan said he plans to "foil games along our borders starting from Manbij." He said that Turkey would "clean our region from this trouble completely.”
The Turks promise the 'mother of all wars' in Manbij since they had their asses handed to them in Afrin.

And Erdogan purged most of his Western trained secular senior officers. He now has the remains of a formerly pretty good army with some pretty bad "yes men" commanders. regards, Alemaster
