They won't give us that much time. Even before the strikes to Iran began, ex prime minister Naftali Bennet said Türkiye is the next. Michael Rubin posted on X: 2026 Iran, 2036 Türkiye. But as I said, they won't wait that much. While we should prepare for such a war like there is no tomorrow, we should pay utmost attention to our language and lower the tone. We should somehow get more integrated to european defence infrastructure, even just for political support. In our preparation we need to focus on those weapons that are effective against aircraft carriers, mainly missiles and stealth drones with large strike capability (Anka 4?). Although, the performance of Iran's ballistic missiles so far have been miserable. I am not mentioning Kaan because by the time we have it in large enough numbers it will be 2036, too late. We should modernize all our F16 and try to get hold of more Eurofighters within the next couple of years. If necessary, we should pay for the right to upgrade their radars. We have only a few years, certainly not 7-8 years.
Liberal democracy can go fuck itself.There are many lessons to be learned for Turkey by looking at the state of Iran.
This is what happens when you let go of pragmatism, run your country and foreign policy on useless chest pumping and ideology. This is what happens when the goverment is so commited to its self destructive ideology that it becomes a international pariah and it allinates so much of its population that it can only remain in power through sadistic brutality it inficts on the public on a regular basis.
If Turkey is ever going to reach its full potential it will reach it through a liberal democracy that repesents the uniqie social and political diversity of this country. So that everyone in Turkey feels like a part of Turkey and works for the betterment of themselves and thus the country as whole.
If Turkey chooses ideology over pragmatism it will spend an another 100 years fighting with it self.

Look at the liberal democracies in Europe, all toothless and war-weary. When a conflict arises, they seek proximity to countries that might be able to defend them, since the US no longer does (see NATO Steadfast Dart 2026). They literally gave Turkey a blow job, they think Turkey is so great. So please spare us the Western understanding of liberal democracies.
I apologise in advance to everyone for my choice of words, especially during Ramadan, but people need to wake up. This era, especially now, is the time of skills, power and whether you can use them. Liberal democracies may work in times of peace, but in a world that is on fire and about to explode, you need skills and hardliners they know the Game.
I trust Erdoğan and Fidan more than anyone (other Politicans in Turkey) else in Turkey; he knows all the bastards and how they play the game.
