Turkey has been taking Syrian refugees and displaced civilians for the last few years and although its been under great strain it's done sterling work. There have been cross-border skirmishes, a Turkish fighter was shot down a couple of years ago, for instance. They have a strong army and air force but I don't think they'll go in all guns blazing because Turkey is a member of NATO and any response to this will probably be an international one. One thing's for sure, I doubt any Turkish people will be claiming that this act of terrorism is in retaliation for the indiscriminate bombing on towns like some people in this country would claim.
