Do you know what an unfair advantage is?
US has an integrated and consolidated battlefield running through multiple states and jurisdictions. It can isolate the victim fairly comprehensively.
What is the aggrieved to do? When aggressor can monitor it's space and choose multiple borders and states with impunity. For example there was no input from these very states on this aggression and US use of their air and ground assets through them to attack Iran. None! In fact US moved its assets around to protect its local parasite. This go beyond even bilateral or legal terms... as the act of war not only illegal according to US domestic law but under domestic laws... forget the ones who's territory was used to conduct them... Secondly, Iraq where its US helped installed government passed the law to expel US troops... US continues to use its bases and air space with impunity in contravention to said laws and legal norms.
So it is advantage US by default and if Erdogan's eyes are used to keep tabs on Iran... it is fair game... however if Iran does something about it Erdogan will provide his body too...
Get it?
