Why do you think nobody suggest they will join, do they even want to?
This aggrement is about the middle east region where the problems are very well known.

Have many countries in NATO are actually able to fight?

You don't have a problem with Turks dying for the Westerners I guess?

Why is it ok that we are allied with Greece, Germany and dozens of useless European countries but not ok with the countries and peoples that we actually share a common cultural background?

During our National Struggle, Indian Muslims sold their bracelets to be able to send it to us in our fight against the infidels. Which western nation would do such a thing?

And the same muslims destroyed our entire contingent during the WW1, Turks have no obligation to muslims because they sold some gold stuff and sent the money, soviets gave us artillery pieces should we parrot the same thing like you? "During national struggle russians gave us weapons!!!"

Like it or not Turkey is a Western country my dear sunniyeli friend, muslims won't die for you just like westerners keep that ottomanism dreams alive while living in italy

Turks gain a lot by being in NATO. Can you deny this?

Turks do not want to die for westerners or for Islamist. We only want to die for our own kin. Same as the Europeans, Asians, Chinese, Arabs and so on.

But , for you people, it's "racist" for Turks to not want to die for Arabs/Islamist?

I seriously wonder what type of childhood brainwashing you'd need in order to want to die for Arabs without a second thought.

Islam is one hell of a drug

Just pumps out mercenaries for Arabs and destroys the host country's language and culture

I bet Jews see most Muslims as the ultimate goy

Yes , Mehmed II , Baybars , Alaudin Khiljji,Suleyman , Ulug Bey , Enver Pasha or Fevzi Cakmak were all under the influence of that drug.
I remember, a few months ago, you were dreaming of Turkifing Arabs.
I have never noticed any consistency in idea in your type of people. The only consistency is the hate for the religion that many great Turkic leaders were very devout to.
Hence as I said before, this* nationalism" is only facade.
I am sure that given the opportunity, your type will behave in the same manner as Iranian opposition.
Practically, I am waiting for " Look how it looked in the 70s".
I am religious but not really Islamist and during the years that I was in this forum, I explained myself pretty clearly and I have various ideas, but you and your type? What exactly do you stand for? Like European so called patriots, who in infantile manner look at real ancient history without understanding it? Oh , shall we talk about Yamnaya now? Like some American has any connection to that?
Or Anglo Saxons talking and the Romans? Anyone in my opinion who's a Protestant can't be truly pro European, as soon as you turn again the Roman idea , you ain't pro European. So that hybrid called Yudeo Christian culture really do exist, thank to the mindless people.
By the way, why sudden "Anti Zionism". I have never seen you express that idea in the threads dedicated to that.
I am against this so called alliance, but I can list the reasons, it is different subject to others so it would differ in context. But you or similar to you????
You have said the same thing over hundred times, no???
I get it , you hare Islam, why do you need to repeat it or is it that the only idea that you have, of course packaged in some pathetic sentimentalism?
Well, just say what happened to that idea to Turkify the Arabs and be Empire again?
Well if you want it , then some people need to die for that idea?
Pretty logical??? Or not?

I remember a post here, but forgot who posted it. Basically the post in question stated that people who believes in some sort of Muslim unity (the Ummah) don’t understand the concept of a sovereign nation with it’s own borders. They want to unit all the Muslim countries under the same umbrella, and for that to happen you’ll have to completely erase the concept of nations and borders, so in essence the state. And if you are against these view they just call you a nationalist like above.

Our Islamists are celebrating the fact we're about to let PKK terrorists that happen to be extremely pro Zionist by the way to walk freely in our streets. How exactly do you expect people to react to this?

They're "Islamists" "Muslims" call them whatever you want.. but they all seem to celebrate our enemies... so many will lash out and say things that might come across "xenophobic" but thats a natural reaction.

Also why do you always bring up Europeans into every argument? Why do we care if Anglos like Muslims or not. Why do we care if Europeans are this or that? I get the feeling you just hate Europeans and want an excuse to bash them .. or am I missing something?

Anyways commonalities of Islamist:

They hate Ataturk
Support PKK
Sayin APO
Turkiyeli .. Turks do not exist.
"Keske Yunan won"
Hates Azerbaijan calls them non-Turks
Osmanli torunu .. as if other Turkish dynasties empires didn't exist?

The problem is Islamist.

Folks, why don't you keep religious discussion away from foreign policy thread?

Turkiye can either become an isolationist middle power or grow more than that by forming mutually beneficial alliances. So far, this alliance between Pak, Turkiye and KSA seems mutually beneficial as each bring set of strength that can complement each other and develop redundancy.

If isolationism works better to deal with Türkiye's geopolitical and security problems, then sure pull out of it. Otherwise, hating on this pact just because of Islam or Arab ethnicity of KSA is dumb.

There is much to gain from partnership with Pakistan.

But if you need to know why people are frustrated, it's because Saudi Arabia is just a giant CIA project. Their dirty oil rich hands have caused ridiculous harm to the entire Muslim world.

Saudi's have their hands in Türkiye's internal affairs too, and they've done this since the 70s under western guidance. This is to remove the element of Turkish nationalism and replace it with an Arab-Kurdish-Turkish federation with Sunnism being the core identity.

I'm sure you're smart and open minded enough to realise how dangerous this is to Türkiye's existence. And yes it has made a lot of us anti-Islamic. This won't stop anytime soon.

If you read US intelligence documents from decades ago, they state that they want to remove the Kemalist military and replace it with a "mild Islamic regime". I don't need to say anything else.

You've guessed wrong and have put words in my mouth, big man.

This thread is Turkish Foreign Policy and Geoplolitics thread.

Foreign nationals are welcome to ask questions and add their piece of mind as long as it does not interfere with the way the tread is used by Turkish nationals/residents.
So I would ask members to be more careful when posting in threads other their own national forums.
