I mean stingers would have massively dented Russia's air campaign and pretty much an end to assads. God knows how many clips i watched of assad flying helicopters and dropping barrel bombs for example. What's interesting about the YPG being given manpads by both Russia and the USA is that the...

The first day erdogan decided to join the rebel cause stingers should have been supplied. The YPG have manpads supplied from russia and american in big numbers. when we first hit afrin the ypg infestation, the jets had to bomb from heights behind manpad range. Why is that? Why did the...

If you pay attention to how the Arab rebels were armed they were never intended to win anything, just to create chaos and destruction. Enough to potentially break assads control over the northern regions to allow the PKK project to ferment. For example they were never given something as simple...

with all due respect no one really pays attention to greece in Turkey, its a non issue to the common man and woman. If we pay attention to anything its what america is doing in the region.

like i say i couldn't disagree more with you, i actually think your wrong on all points. The US gives enough of a fk about Turkey that will even work with Russia against Turkey, as witnessed over and over again in syria. Just like when Turkey moved on al bab and both the USA and Russia moved in...

couldn't disagree more. As far as the USA is concerned its in Turkeys long term interest to make sure they leave syria and iraq completely eventually. Everything they have done in those nations has been to undermine Turkey. As far as Syria is concerned, i dont think it matters whether assad...

These plans make no sense from a Turkish perspective, unless Turkey wants to lose. Everyone gets to stay there, Russia, USA, Iran, but Turkey has to leave? Makes no sense. So far everything i'm seen seems like something only a mad man could agree too. Not one previous agreement was upheld by...

I think their real bet is that the USA will defend them. Hence why they have given so many bases to the USA, its not Russia its for Turkey.

No doubts fear mongering over Turks has been good business for the insanely incompetent and corrupt political class in Greece, which is really just 3 corrupt families who change roles every other election. Its the great big distraction that allows them to get away with all the domestic failures...

No Turks are taking these statements seriously, they just find them insanely hilarious. But its not the same of erdogans statements, the Turkish military has engaged in syria, its never come suddenly one night but its came multiple times and even in the east of syria when both Russia and the USA...

For Ukraine to really end this war they will need long range air defence systems and rocket artillery to that goes upwards of 300Km. But i keep asking myself when is Turkey going to send the Akinci with cruise missiles to Ukraine? It seems like we are reaching a point where Russia can be totally...

I think ultimately russians are going to find themselves removed from most regions they invaded. The world is pretty much sick of them and their hostility. They are already getting culled in Ukraine, they shouldn't be so sure that Ukraine is going to be the end of it, it may just be the start...

Only a muppet could believe the PKK will be gone, they are not gone in Iraq or Iran, but they are going to be gone in the nation that was most friendly to their cause. Don't forget how Ocalan was given VIP status by the Assad regime in the past. We quite rightly could have gone to war with Syria...

had that been the other way around the russians would have hit the position.

thats the problem with this administration that even when you see really bad deals, you half worry that this government takes it. Just like the terrible refugee deal that screwed Turkey and took away her only leverage to deal with syria. But Turkey filling with migrants is good for AK party they...

He won't, its a dumb deal where Turkey loses every card she has while she took massive costs and blows over the syrian civil war. There is no way in hell that can be a deal, has to be made up.

only reason i see for any reluctance is that the USA wants the war to grind out making the costs and deaths higher to Russia. they played a similar game over Syria constantly using the excuse they couldnt strike assad because of formidable Russian air defence systems, but then it turned out a...

The reason the YPG has such a strong hold in Syria is because the Assad dynasty gave them safe haven and are they used as a card against Turkey. Assad doesnt want to get rid of the YPG, that is your first mistake in thinking. Assad and the YPG see Turkey as the bigger enemy then they do each...
