Two Syrians died and several others, including two Turks, were wounded when Syrian troops fired on the civilians' destination, a refugee camp located in the Turkish province of Kilis. The incident has unleashed much speculation that Turkey will at last act on its many veiled threats to move against Syria. For several months the prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has been muttering about taking unspecified measures against Bashar Assad, Syria's president, once a friend and ally. Since last summer Turkey has hosted FSA leaders on its soil amid claims that it is (modestly) arming the rebels. Officials deny this but acknowledge that regime change in Syria is a priority. Only America's reluctance to become entangled in a fresh conflict stands in the way of some form of direct Turkish intervention. For how long? Until recently the question would have been unthinkable.
