Once they had St John Philby, now they have this:


This is a great read, I encourage everyone to read it. With a bonus section about Iran's surveillance of U.S. consulate in Istanbul which helped them catch a couple of spies.

President Erdogan: The developments we have encountered recently have once again reminded us of the need for reform of the United Nations. With the understanding of "The World is Bigger than Five", Turkiye will continue to contribute to the work to be done towards the establishment of a more just world order.

There's no reforming to be done for an organization like the UN. Burn it in holy hellfire.

The current world order can only be destroyed by WW3, nothing else. And the "winners" of WW3 will form the new one.

That is why going on with the S400 deal was the right one since at the very least it did give the message of "_I_ screw you" from the Turks to the double-standard American


Buying the S-400 was a complete blunder not because Turkey lost the F35s- even without this the US would find another reason not to give the planes. It is a blunder because the S-400 is absolute shit and won't help at all against a competent opponent. Turkey could have invested 2,5 billion dollars into it's own systems and developments and the result would be much, much better for the state.

Turkey wasted 2,5 billion dollars, got sanctioned and lost probably hundreds of billions of dollars in collateral damage due to the economic problems brought to the country. And in the end all it has in it's hands are a few rockets that Turkey is even afraid to test and they get rusty in the hangars.

ps As for Armenia and their love affair with France... who cares. No matter how much weaponry France dumps there (even if it's for free it will be costly to maintain) Armenia is a basically a country that lives at the mercy of Turkey and Azerbaijan and can be squashed at any given moment. Maybe Armenians dream about how they will turn into a second Israel with the help of France but that is just not possible.

Wait for WW3

need erdogan to stop wasting time barking over fruitless endeavours and do what's good for the country like sorting the economy out, resolving the Syrian fiasco etc. Tired of hearing his bullshit about the world being greater then 5. Its like the guy can't go one day without barking to the media.

As new powers rise, that security council eventually will have to dissolve or have to evolve to remain relevant. I suspect in order to prolong its life they will invite a few new powers into it so it can continue to be used to beat smaller nations over the head with, while the bigger powers ignore the international laws they create to exploit and trap the rest of the world.

In an ideal world the UN is completely dissolved. It was meant to be precursor to world government, if you believe in personal liberties and freedoms then you must believe in national sovereignty, because without it the world becomes very centralised in terms of where its laws are created. Since the international agenda is world government, its also why nationalism, patriotism is relentlessly under attack. In the west the left is doing it, in Muslim majority countries so called islamists are doing it.

Every time Erdogan talks about Israel, the stock market index falls 2-3% in next 2 hours. Sell signal in intraday trading.

Our people love to boşboğaz, it ain’t like he’s special.

Just looks like Turkish politics is basically a race to fool and impress the most uneducated elements of the nation. Appeal to the lowest common denominator. the result is a small collection of clans become exceptionally rich and the rest of the nation is made poorer.

I don't think there is any need to address the issue on a racial level. Maybe the political intellectuality is a phenomenon that has been very little in this land, but there is a great decadence around the world too. Look at Biden, look at little Napoleon Macron, look at Mr. 'Give me a kiss' Sunak, also ton of other goverments, political leaderships? This total collapse is bringing us to the shithole because there are no smart men left.

"Hamas is not a terrorist organization. Hamas consists of mujahideen trying to defend their own land."


OK we do not owe anything to Israel but what do we owe to Hamas to make this statement? Have we learned nothing from the "Muslim Brotherhood" fiasco and what it costed us?

A statement that appeals to his voter base but a statement that only harms Turkiye. Without religion AK party would be nothing but a collection of failures. From the economy, to syria to the refugee issue. Politicians in Turkiye who work to serve themselves at great cost to the nation.

You realise how easy charlatans and frauds can exploit religion for personal benefit. Despite being a Muslim when you see how religion is predominantly used to deceive and manipulate people i sometimes wonder if it does more harm then good.

Oh man. The PKK is going to look cute by comparison and receive even more support because the west can just use this as justification.

Hamas has killed so many civilians in a day, even released videos of them executing civilians and celebrating it, I don't think the PKK even did the videos for fear of retribution.

Erdogan is destroying foreign policy for his image.
