A Saudi military spokesman said Thursday the kingdom is ready to send ground troops to Syria to fight Islamic State group provided coalition leaders agree during an upcoming meeting in Brussels.
Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri told The Associated Press that Saudi Arabia has taken part in coalition airstrikes against IS since the U.S.-led campaign began in September 2014, but could now provide ground troops.
The United States is scheduled to convene a meeting of defence ministers from countries fighting IS in Brussels this month.
“We are determined to fight and defeat Daesh,” Asiri said, using the Arabic acronym for IS. He didn’t elaborate on how many troops the kingdom would send.
Saudi Arabia is deeply involved in Yemen’s civil war, where it is fighting Iranian-backed Shiite rebels. Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries have long viewed Iran as a regional menace, and Riyadh and Tehran back opposite sides in the wars in Syria and Yemen.
Asiri’s announcement came shortly after Russia said it suspects Turkey of planning a military invasion of Syria.
Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said Thursday in a statement that the Russian military has registered “a growing number of signs of hidden preparation of the Turkish armed forces for active actions on the territory of Syria.”
He said images of a checkpoint on the Turkish-Syrian border taken in late October and late January show a buildup of transportation infrastructure that could be used for moving in troops, ammunition and weapons.
The announcement came a day after U.N.-led peace talks in Geneva were suspended for three weeks.

This is getting interesting again.  First my readers have been abuzz about the advances that the Syrian Army is making.  The Syrians with alot of help from their Russian allies are carrying the day.  Then we have the breakdown in peace talks because the Russians didn't agree to stop bombing the rebels.

Personally I think that was a move to freeze the conflict and keep the Syrian regime from regaining even more territory.

Now we have Turkey and Saudi Arabia ready to send troops into the country?  Once again we tiptoe up to the brink of a serious miscalculation by some of our idiot allies.  I just hope the Obama administration has the good sense to not save them from themselves.

Yeah.  This just moved up the "watch list".
