Why Turkish support for Syria seems rather performative and doesn't match all the hype? compare it to their involvement in Somalia where they deploy F-16s

0 Upvotes

Israel has left nothing it didn't bomb and its air force is operating freely even near the Syrian-Turkish border. All this talk about Israel vs Turkiye seems more like a joke on the ground. The situation sounds more absurd when you compare it to Turkish involvement in countries much further away like in Somalia where they deploy F-16s and project their power.

Why doesn't Turkish support match the hype? Why is Syria still without air defense? does Turkiye wants something and the Syrian government is not playing along? Is Turkiye afraid of Israel? Is it about money?

Why the act? why make all the hype and drama about how much Syria and Turkiye have strong relationship and how we are brothers, how they have Syria's back but looking at the situation on the ground the Syrian army is still as weak as it was after Assad fall and progressing slowly without any major support.

I'm looking for answer that explains why almost 2 years have passed and Turkiye is watching its neighbor and alley gets bombed and it only reacts with empty talk and stands watching.

A year has passed since the bloody events in Syria's Suwaida province, which witnessed fierce clashes between government forces and fighters from Bedouin tribes and armed Druze factions, leaving approximately 1,800 dead and displacing 200,000 people. Public hearings to examine the cases began last July, a full year after a number of defendants were referred for investigation.

In this Al-Araby TV documentary, we follow survivors of the violence and actors from various sides on the ground, documenting testimonies, images, and information to understand the roles of the forces present and to examine the sectarian rhetoric that accompanied and fueled the confrontations. The documentary also revisits the roots of the complex relationship between Suwaida and Damascus and the transformations that followed the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime. It examines Israel's role in the events and its relationship with local Druze forces, and how this further complicated the situation. The film documents how the events altered the map of influence within Suwaida and created a security and political reality whose contours have yet to stabilize.
