Turkey’s military struck targets inside Syria yesterday after a bomb went off killing five civilians in a residential area in Turkey close to the border. The Pentagon responded strongly to the activity. Spokesman George Little said in a statement, “This is yet another example of the depraved behavior of the Syrian regime, and why it must go. We regret the loss of life in Turkey, a strong ally, and continue to monitor the situation closely.”
