Flag making Turkish leader rage (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tire

'flag' is the definition.
(both can mean to become weary)

'turkish leader rage' is the wordplay.
'leader' suggests taking the first letters.
'rage' becomes 'ire' (ire is anger).
The first letter of 'turkish' is 't'.
't'+'ire'='TIRE'

'making' is the link.

(Other definitions for tire that I've seen before include "Grow weary of rite" , "Get weary" , "Weaken" , "Become exhausted" , "Feel in need of rest" .)
