It IS legal and recognised by the UN. Even if it is not, so what? What does it have to do with us while all the arap states are there in silence? Is democracy or "human rights" in Syria is more important than our border security?
By the way, it was not Assad who started civil war in Syria but the west and its partner in the ME Turkey. Remember the US and Turkish Army who trained jihadist fighters so called FSA...
There is a good idiom in Turkish that i dont know how to translate;
Her s2m hıyar diyene elinde tuzlukla koşmak...!
What happened?
Assad's supporters said either bashar al assad or we burn the country.
Now they have both. Bashar al assad was willing to butcher his own country just to stay in power.
We can swear and curse at the refugees and kurds all day but remember who started the whole thing. It was assad himself.
He caused the refugee crisis and the ypg/pkk to happen. Remember this assad gave up northern syria without even firing a shot.
