The middle east is a complete shitshow, i can only imagine the absolute hell it would be if Turkey was made of the same character.

The great irony, Turkey has had to endure millions of uneducated arabs and kurds fleeing iraq for decades. Iraq never made any efforts to take back these millions of uneducated Iraqis, who really offer nothing or contribute nothing to Turkey. This doesn't include the terrorism that emanates from...

At a bare minimum Turkey should be working in the background to make sure that Ukraine will put up a resistance. Anyway as for NATO i personally feel its a dead thing, it pretty much died the day the Turks downed a Russian jet and most NATO rushed to side with Putin. Who remembers the calls of...

Likewise it will only encourage NATO to provide more support for Turkeys enemies like Greece.

Politics isnt for belly dancing. You leave NATO and getting hardware will become even harder. Not only will the west be willing to sell you less, but the east knowing you have less options will also squeeze you harder. In politics you have no friends, you only have what you can get.

AK party would be stupid to miss this potential massive opportunity.

hilarious.

When the political islamist days come to an end and if Allah wills it that Turkey still exists, the level of corruption and filth that is going to be exposed under the name of AK party Islamists, will shock even Satan himself. Every single week a new phycological shock/attack on the Turkish...

The political islamist has been a devil in disguise for Turkey, the sooner this demon is vanquished the better. Problems in Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Libya, the Gulf, the east med, Israel, etc etc nothing completely resolved, but its time for more problems to be thrown on top so they can hide from...

Erdogan has been good at making many enemies, and making all of them at the same time. Yet Syria remains a complete mess, unresolved and no plan on the horizon.

Ankara was more about geopolitics then anything. Istanbul is a relatively flat plane, its vulnerable to invasion or at least was back then. You can't have your power centre so vulnerable. For Istanbul to be safe you need the mountain range in Bulgaria as your border. Still to this day i never...

I remember something like this occurring when Turkey was threatened not to stop Russia from destroying idlib. That would have led to another 4 million refugees. Its pretty much forced Turkey to say to the EU that if you don't back me, i have no choice but to send millions your way. While all...

Chinese don't tend to question, they just obey. Hence why things like "social credit systems" works over there. Place is a cultural nightmare.

seems like a waste of money.

Constantly living in Turkeys shadow, no other purpose to their existence.

nato/west did nothing against Russia in Syria, Libya or Azerbaijan, they wont do anything in Ukraine. They speak a good game though. Only Turkey did something against Russia in all 3 theatres.

Seems so obvious now you mentioned it, that the best way to help Ukraine would to expand operations into northern Syria.

The real question for me is what Turkey is planning to do, they cannot allow Ukraine to be alone against Russia.

If Ukraine doesn't fight she will come under a long term incremental occupation by Russia. Its best she fights. This all explains why the Russians were escalating trouble in Syria. I really hope Turkey backs Ukraine the same way she backed Azerbaijan, its the only chance of victory Ukraine has...

I've said it quite a few times in the past but it would nice if we could get around 10 Muslim majority nations to all align their foreign policy and when a country moves they all move together. Obviously Turkey, Azerbaijan and Pakistan will have to head this work. Would be nice to add the...
