500 tanks is about two divisions. They would normally be supported by
about 20,000 troops. Assume that the 2000 is 20000 and what he is saying
is a multidivisional invasion of syria. Mobilizing a deploying a force
that big can't be hidden. It is certainly enough to take northern syria.
But as I said, it would be a new chapter in turkish history and if they do
it, it won't be because they want democracy in turkey.
