Not saying that he's definitely lying or anything. But how does he know, from Istanbul, that his foes are moving weapons?

Maybe because his fighters and observers are in Syria, and him self only on visit in Istanbul...?
But you are right, and I said the same like yoiui before: The news must be confirmed, and the rebels have an interest to make that claim (do I have a deja vu right now, or what...).
But if it would be true, then the implications are most unpleasant and the consequences must be determined, free of delay and really shattering. No matter what the UN or Russians say or want.
I think the Israelis in that case will take the military initiative anyway, no matter what, forcing the US to either follow, growling or not - or fold cards and lose any remaining credibility that still is not destroyed in the region already.
