RT maintaining radio silence on this is very telling. If there were even the remote possibility it was Turkey that did this, they'd be all over it. Pretty much a slam dunk it's Syria/Russia.

I wonder if Turkey could potentially be divided. Kurds are like 25% of the population and are determined for their own state. Not to mention the heavy spill over and the Levantine Arabs aspirations. The Turks are majority descendants of the native Anatolian population and as such it makes sense that they want to maintain the region.

People say it can't happen but people are often wrong. Nobody expected WWI for example or all the border changes after WWII. Turkey is becoming ripe for continued ethnic strides against the Turkish authortarian (basically) nationalist government. It can't be feasible for long term governing if Ankara has to continue to explain to Anatolian ethnic Turks why 25% of the country hates them (Kurds). And why they should put up with Arab cultural oppression and dominance.
