Assad, in contrast, shielded diplomatically by Russia and with military and financial support from Iran and its Shi?ite allies in Leba**n's Hezbollah, warned that the fires of Syria?s sectarian war would burn its neighbors. For Turkey, despite the confidence of Tayyip Erdogan, elected this summer to the presidency after 11 years as prime minister and three straight general election victories, Assad?s warning is starting to ring uncomfortably true. Turkey?s foreign policy is in ruins.
