I thought you guys had decent relations with India unlike Pakistan...

I have my doubts that the US army will make any serious moves against the Turkish army in assistance of YPG. Providing supplies and all that, sure, but the US armed forces don't necessarily share the same views as their ideologically-blinded leaders and are generally a bit more pragmatic than...

Possibly one of the greatest "rise of the underdog" World Cups I've had the pleasure to witness. You can be world champions Morocco, I have faith in you.

We should be helping them too, considering Iraqi Turkmen are our closest brethren in the region after Iranian Azerbaijanis (not saying the rest don't count but in terms of historical and linguistic connection there's a scale). Not surprised by Iranian shenanigans though. They are trying to...

They can't even handle an ISIS prison breakout without the US army having to get it under control for them. Oh yeah and let's not forget that they set ISIS inmates free when Turkey launched the 2019 operation and then tried to blame it on the Turkish army...who are apparently so good with...

I gotta hand it to the Nazis, their Horten H.IX design was so decades ahead of its time that even the US MIC eventually settled for just copying it wholesale.

Damn Morocco, really killing it out there, superb form.

I think Turkey can afford to ignore Russia a fair bit in Syria now.

I'm going to be charitable and assume that bisbis doesn't mean that Ukraine deserved to be invaded or making any moral judgements but simply claiming that in a purely geopolitical sense, given it's geographic position, Ukraine should've attempted to balance between the EU and Russia instead of...

Yeeeah I don't think Egyptians should really take too much pride in Muhammad Ali. For one he was Albanian and did not consider himself Egyptian, for two his army was composed of all Ottoman ethnicities including Turks fighting another Ottoman army to depose the sultan and seize power for...

The latter I believe.

This is actually pretty smart because those facilities are a major reason why the US and other foreign actors even have an interest in the PKK, destroying them means the PKK is no longer of as much interest to those entities, which makes them extremely vulnerable. I'm legitimately surprised the...

Yeah, this warrants a vicious response.

Chinese should be the last ones complaining about copying considering their J-20 is a blatant duplicate of Russia's MiG.

I guess I'm looking at an unfinished WIP but I don't think anti-thermal coating works with this many exposed parts.

I assumed that it was based on whose condolences the Turkish government was aware of at the time of the tweet. Possibly some countries' messages of sympathy hadn't been read/heard yet at the time?

Strategically, Bakhmut could serve as a good staging point to launch a new Russian offensive right into the heart of eastern Ukraine, problem is that Russian forces are too incompetent to pull that off without getting flanked and hammered by Ukrainian forces. Especially if they are using Wagner...

Italians are historically very good at buttering up their rivals with a friendly facade - see Italian merchants and the Ottoman/Byzantine Empires. Turkish influence in Libya is great for Italy because they get to reap the rewards without doing shit and they don't even have to share with France...

Seconded, @Mehmed Ali, there is no need for such massive hostility.

My sincere condolences, I thought you guys were past this shit.
