"As of mid-September, the United States and Turkey (both of whom had condemned regime violence against peaceful protesters in Syria) were reportedly working together to prepare for a post-Assad Syria, and to prevent a possible sectarian civil war. A “senior Obama administration official” told the New York Times newspaper, “there’s a real consensus” that Bashir al-Assad is “beyond the pale and over the edge. Intelligence services say he’s not coming back.”"

This means Turkey plays a pivotal role in the opposition. Right now we are trying to habour support for our side. And once we got a legitimacy, with USA Turkey will make the finishing touch, if god wills.
Bottom line Turkey cannot do anything by itself. it's relations with it's neighbors are bad Armenia, Greece, Cyprus, Syria etc etc, Russia has a naval base in Syria that's one of the main factors what can turkey do to Russia ? Noting, China also supports us what can turkey do to China ? Noting, Turkey thinks it's a regional power it's far from it turkey can't lead a No fly Zone alone it needs UN and NATO for that which is unlikely.

the SNC is divided it cannot even bring all the groups together, as for the FSA it's noting it's a disorganized group we killed 20 of them yesterday near the border with turkey without airsupport and a base they can't do a thing.
