That city was the epicenter of the decadence wrought by the Islamic Golden Age. By the time mongol banners gathered in front of its walls, Baghdad was not the seat of a great geopolitical power, nor was it a scientifically, economically or culturally productive city. Especially in correlation...

Case in point, vast majority of western intelligentsia still reject the existence of Gülen's terror network. How can one even predict anything with such delusions blocking their view?

A century of a half successful reconquista in and around Turkey beg to differ. Even when compared to other muslim nations, European behaviour towards Turks is remarkably hostile. They smiply want us gone. Fortunately, we are not in that age anymore, but in every westerner's heart there lies a...

Are you paranoid if they are actually out to get you?

Fair point, but doesn't that increase the sensor costs? You have to target the missile somehow.

ok stalin

Yeah well, California is a drug addled cesspit of homelessness and degeneracy. Nothing but prostitutes and drugs. Hard pass. Pacific Northwest has good nature but metro areas are communist hellholes (mutual combat laws rock tho, I wish we had them) Great Plains area is the very definition of...

I like the only one that doesn't recognize Armenian genocide claims. Mississipi I think... Does that count?

If you like the government, TAI is seen as susceptible to political change. Baykar is much more durable in that regard. If you don't like the government, Baykar is susceptible to political change, and TAI is better in that regard. Diversification seems good in both situations, only negative...

I totally dig that look. Great art!

There's not enough people that wants to emulate the values of the republic who would also fight. Same thing with Kurds and Turkmen in North Iraq. I would also like to see Türkmeneli realized, but there's not enough Turkmen who would fight for it. This is true for all sides on this war. For Assad...

This much concentration might be a problem. I'm thinking a portion of it might house an EW suite if that's a problem. And it can be smaller. In fact, putting something similar but way smaller on the back of a pickup truck would be much more preferable IMO.

Gangs are predominantly a Kurdish thing. They have large families, political connections, familiar with how the law works, have international connections.

Is it really bad, or is it just the new guy shaking things up?

It's a debatable number, but the government refuses to audit the numbers of illegals, so noone really knows. Syrians are at least 4 million, and others are easily another 4. Another 4 to 5 million live in Idlib and other areas under Turkish control, former interior minister (the bald one) said...

I bet it's related to street dogs issue. Some crazy dog worshipper abducted a literal rabid dog from Urfa and released it in Ankara. People are up in arms about it. When you couple that with the level of IQ a regular Turkish Twitter user has, you get this stupidity.

John Oliver is a joke. His entire thing is ridicule and laugh track. That particular format is for conditioning the viewer to disregard and disbelieve dissidents against western ideology. He's a worm. Jon Stewart is just a bit better but still equal to, say, a rodent in my eyes. These people...

They would produce blockbuster movies about how obliterating those villages made their soldiers sad.

I agree to an extent, but you can't deny western joint development programs -without the US at the helm- generally end up more expensive, too late, and often fail to satisfy the users.
