This seems like a major blunder. The US needs Turkiye on its side to expand NATO, besides the whole risk of "in for a penny, in for a pound." Obama lost a lot of face with his red line, but at least he avoided getting the US entrenched in another Middle East conflict, which they'll just make worse by their mere presence.
