I've been to a few areas filled with syrians in Turkey and it didnt look like they were assimilating at all, they don't even want to learn the language. Go to fatih district as an example. I remember walking around that place walking in and speaking Turkish to the shop owners and bar one out of...
Another 10 years of this failure in Syria and it may be too late for Turkey, you are going to face a problem where a state will be set up against you that entirely hates you. Another Greece or Armenia and while these nations try to harm you internationally, the state on your border will be set...
From we will come suddenly one night to we will never forget. I'm sure the USA is trembling at erdogan constantly talking but doing nothing. I'm sure Putin and the USA are concerned whether you will forget or not, you were the same guy who tried to hide from the Turkish nation that Russians...
Every chance Russia had to screw Turkey they took it without fail, they never missed an opportunity to harm Turkey and her regional interests. These Russians are getting screwed in Ukraine and basically got exposed to the world that they are not a serious military let alone a super power. Still...
No idea why AK party cronies have been helping iran bust sanctions while filling their own pockets. Is that what you guys voted them in to do? To utilise that privlede position to make money for themselves and risk the interests of the state?
Just imagine if the Turks did the same to their Christian subjects, all of them made Muslim and made to speak Turkish. No armenian problem, no greek problem and half of europe today would identify as Turkish.
Maybe over 40 empires and next to no one was made Turkish. Europeans enter a land and...
The Russian state treats its citizens as nothing more then slave peasants to be used for the oligarchs personal interests, yet these peasants absolutely worship their overlords. Only other nation i can think of where its people behave in a similar way is China.
Always fascinating to see these long range forecasts/predictions. It reminds me of the Ukrainian adviser to Zelensky who 2 years before the war started predicted when it would start, what would happen and in the end Russia will be defeated.
Thats what the russians and their fanboys want to hear that everything is going to plan and everything is a grand success. He's simply giving his audience the junk food they demand. A year from now when the Russians have been completely removed from Ukraine, it will go down in their history...
The more i think about it the best leverage we have against fighter jet embargoes from the USA is this project. The faster the project comes along the more counter productive it becomes for the USA not to sell us fighter jets. Would not surprise me if the announcement that the project has come...
And should this occur the entire region would benefit, the nation would be large enough and strong enough to put an end to crusader games in the region.
Why don' the Azeri Turks just take over the entire state, they ruled for much of the past 1000 years. Even that general stated that persians had no history for the past 900 years because of Turkic rule.
Just take it back over and dump the persian theocratic dictatorship and bring the entire...
I don't think they can be eliminated entirely, because the heads of the organisation are not from the region. What we can do is risk management. The level of terrorist attacks within Turkey directly have dramatically reduced since expanding into Iraq and Syria, if you create a bufferzone along...
