nothing you write above has any relevance to what I wrote brother

1. Turkey does not need the west

2. NATO has no authority to stop Turkey attacking Syria

3. The West needs Turkey as an ally in the region, whereas if it wished Turkey could over time realign with the East and that would greatly reduce western influence in the region to their great detriment.

you are incorrect on all three points as it is the exact opposite. NATO 'needs' turkey as an ally as much as it 'needed' pakistan as an ally.
