Syria's Kurds, Feeling Betrayed by the U.S., Ask Assad Government for Protection

4. Possible but not likely.

For One: Syria, if they take the Kurdish forces up on their request, will most likely stop at their border not wanting to provoke a Turkish response.

For Two: Turkey, not knowing the level of commitment that that the US and NATO has to step in should Syria overstep, will likely not attack.

For Three: Remember that Turkey downed a Russian fighter awhile back and while there was tension, there was no war. Russia wants to increase its influence in the region, not set off a war in which its military vulnerabilities are exposed by direct contact with NATO forces.

I think that the poor Kurds are going to be the only ones hurting in this scenario. Why should any group trust America after this betrayal?
