note: ”Already the invasion seems to be getting bogged down despite the immense Turkish superiority in numbers and armaments. It seems that Erdogan cannot use his own infantry of unwilling drafted soldiers for fear of mutiny, and must rely on mercenaries recruited from the dregs of failed Syrian militias, who are happy to take Turkish salaries but understandably unwilling to give their lives.
