    It is a tragedy, no doubt. Turkey is supporting the suicide bombers and al-quaeda terrorists is Syria. That is why the Syrian government refers to these people as terrorists. The funding, arming, trainning, and other support that al-quaeda recieves will not be limited to activity inside the Syrian borders. This is happening already in Iraq, Lebanon, and occupied Palestine.
