> The government is looking for (and creating when necessary) any excuse to attack Syria against its people’s will.
Wait, I thought Syria/Assad is the bad guy. The Turkish people support Assad but the Turkish government doesn't? Now I'm confused.

And the "people" don't always support things that a western person would agree with. People always assume that if there is a popular revolt it would always be in the direction of democracy and secularism - it's not so at all.
Don't support a popular revolt just because it's by the populace. Support it if you think it's right. And if you don't understand the situation then reserve judgment.
Turkey people haven't support Assad or the groups against to him. Turkey folks always supported helping to syrian refugee, thats all. As folk wanted, Turkey government helping the syrian refugee while supported the groups againist to Assad. The supporting groups goverment's initiative.
The problem of the Turkey is between folk and government. Its not unfixable, we'd like to government's support even small groups like gay's, homeless people, women rights. We don't want despot behaviours form cops to folk. Basicly the protests are about small problems, to be have better democracy, as well as better even some part of europe/usa.
