Is The End Near?
Breaking: Turkey invades Syria with tanks: Syrian Foreign Ministry condemns breach of sovereignty
“When you hear that the Russians have captured the city of Crimea, you should know that the times of the Messiah have started, that his steps are being heard. And when you hear that the Russians have reached the city of Constantinople, you should put on your Shabbat (Sabbath) clothes and don’t take them off, because it means that the Messiah is about to come any minute.”
In this prophecy, the Vilna Gaon mentioned two signs of the imminent arrival of the Messiah – Russia capturing Crimea and Russia invading the Turkish city of Constantinople (now Istanbul). The first prophecy was fulfilled in 2014 when Russia annexed the Ukrainian territory of Crimea.
What do you think?

considering all the terrorists attacks from Isis , Turkey had to face recently, one should rather wonder why they didn't do it earlier.
Also, Syria won't probably exist (divided among Kurd and other group) anymore once it is over; so Turkey has also to protect itself against a future kurd state and/or prevent it to happening... so it is their best move
(lol the messiah is coming from Crimea... yeah right... guess the death toll wasn't high enough for him to come in the XX century)
