Turkey's\r\nparliament has authorised cross-border military action against Syria,\r\nif required by the government.
\r\n
\r\nThe bill, which was passed 320-129, gives the government authority for\r\none year to send troops into Syria or carry out strikes against Syrian\r\ntargets. [...]
\r\n
\r\nTurkey has been firing at targets inside Syria, in retaliation for the\r\ndeaths of five civilians. Two women and three children died in Akcakale\r\nor on the Turkey-Syria border in shelling by Syria. [...]
\r\n
\r\nThe UN Security Council is to meet later, following a Turkish request\r\nfor the body to take \"necessary action\" to stop Syrian \"aggression\".
\r\n
\r\nNato has held an urgent meeting to support Turkey, demanding \"the\r\nimmediate cessation of such aggressive acts against an ally\".
\r\n
\r\nThe US, the UK, France and the European Union have already condemned\r\nSyria's actions.

Turkish minister says\r\nviolence in Syria is threat for Turkey's internal security<\/span>

\r\nPBS website, 26 September 2012

\r\n
\r\n
\r\nPBS:<\/span>\r\n If the United Nations won't act [against Syria], would Turkey\r\never join a coalition of the willing, that is, a coalition that's not\r\nU.N., but perhaps NATO and Arab-led, as it did -- as happened in Libya?
\r\n
\r\nDAVUTOGLU:<\/span>\r\n Of course, in Libya, there was a U.N. resolution which\r\ncreated the base for this coalition of willing. But if U.N. cannot do\r\nanything, all the other options and measures should be on the table.\r\n[...]
\r\n
\r\nPBS:<\/span>\r\n And Turkey would take part?
\r\n
\r\nDAVUTOGLU:<\/span>\r\n Turkey is already taking part.
\r\n
\r\nPBS:<\/span>\r\n No, I mean in a military sense.
\r\n
\r\nDAVUTOGLU:<\/span>\r\n Yes, of course. [...]
