I think the only value in talking about wanting the F35 is to make the Americans think we may still chase purchasing their planes as a way to buy time against any hostile events, like not selling/delivering engines for our first KAANS. Because if they think you are done with them and their jets...
Its not about "support" in a traditional sense, its about a game being played on the collective middle east. When we look at Isreal/Iran conflict, what is the actual outcome for the region? It basically further destabilises and undermines it. While Europeans are working to create a European...
you not find it interesting how CNN seems to support the islamist side? while say fox news supports the zionist side? Basically the leftist side gets support from CNN, while the right wing gets support from fox. But both are western/american owned media entities. Are we just witnessing the...
do you remember how it was CNN who gave Erdogan his speech on TV during the coup. The american owned media entity was on hand to give erdogan a life line.
kind of makes sense why you get things like the phone call of the Russians soldiers wife telling him to make sure he rapes the Ukrainian women before killing them. One of the most morally bankrupt civilisations on earth.
that is their modus operandi.
Americans played a similar game on Turkiye in both Iraq and Syria. In Syria they did everything to create pressure on Turkiye to go against Assad, once erdogan took the bait they made sure to do everything to make sure we could do nothing about it. 10 plus years...
If indeed part of the talks are for the USA to buy weapons from Turkiye to give to Ukraine, then i rather he went. Its more important for us that Ukraine succeeds then the USA. The USA sit pretty in easy geopraphy, we are in some of the most hostile and dangerous geography on earth.
The way it looks to me, its inevitable that most nations on earth will get nuclear weapons at some point. It may take 50 years, it may take 200 years. But the idea that nukes will remain in a few hands indefinitely is unrealistic.
The real question is, will a nation like Turkiye lose first...
Turkiye has needed her own nukes for a very long time.
The Americans i think back in 64 when Turkey wanted to intervene in Cyprus to stop the genocide/illegal annexation of the island wrote a letter to Turkey basically saying, that if we intervene in cyprus and should the soviets attack us then...
political islamist don't believe in freedom, nothing they do will ever bring freedom. It will bring at best a communist style system with an islamist face. With mass poverty and corruption being its core tenants. Also this flotilla will just bring shame to Turkiye. It will embarrasses us and...
You know i also thought this of this for a long time. In a similar manner to how the Pakistani's told the americans when arming the taliban against the soviets to do it in small incremental steps, basically to take the boiling frog approach. But to me when things like when 30 tanks go while they...
Americans could just give the Ukrainians exactly what they need to win this war and it could have ended a year ago. As time passes and we see the selective way in which capabilities are shifted to ukraine, it becomes more and more obvious that the americans want this war to drag out. Shouldn't...
clowns back to taking about babies cooked in ovans. They think we forgot that little trick they played on iraq using Kuwaiti royalty to spread bullshit propaganda against saddam. Shameless bastards.
could just be good cop/bad cop for international consumption, because after all what has already taken place could have only taken place with US approval/support.
We saw a similar game with Turkey and the PKK, while america threatened us not to intervene we had certain US senators, political...
Nothing wrong with the tone, it was neutral. I'm simply pointing out the reality. The other dude was making assumptions that couldn't have been further from the truth. I'm a straight forward guy, now if you want me to make the language super safe and super soft i can and still convey the exact...
Without Turkish support Russians are still humiliating you today and there would be nothing you could do about it. As a small nation you could have done nothing to stop Russia or Iran from intervening against you. Its the fact a big and serious nation stood by you that you could achieve what you...
There was always a concern when the 5 year peacekeeping plan of Russia was put in place that it was a simple russian trick to allow the russians in and once in to stay in. Because anyone whose experienced and knows Russian history knows how treacherous and deceitful they behave politically.
Not...
