The Russians must be bitter watching the americans/french screw them hard in Ukraine. In Syria Russians and Americans were pretty much working together carving out their spheres of influence at the expense of everyone else in the region and from the region. The Russians did great business with the French in Libya where both sides were allied together to support warlord Haftar in hopes they could pillage all the resources. But Russians are having to come to terms with the fact that both of them are screwing them hard over Ukraine. They are creating a situation for the Russians where to get out of their desperate position in Ukraine they need to create pressure against these nations in other theatres. But i honestly think Ukraine was a fatal mistake for Russia, its had big costs and its costs will be felt many decades to come for Russia.

For all of Erdogan's geopolitical failures which there are many, his180's, or his countless "i was deceived moments", none of it compares to the critical disaster Russia made in thinking they were going to have a 3 day war with Ukraine.

all empires come to an end and usually a big sign of it is entering stupid wars.

But for me the biggest problem is that Russias massive manpower advantage that she had relative to most of her neighbours has rapidly reduced. Just look at Turkiye as example. Turkey was 10 million in 1923, while Russia was around 140 million.

Today Turkiye with all the illegals is most likely around a 100 million while Russia is about 140 million. Her biggest advantage her overwhelming manpower advantage has massively shrank.

But that is compared to Turkey only
For most EU countries, the advantage is still there

If true and successful, biggest decapitation strike since Soleimani. So that's why they stopped the flights.

The son of a bitch is probably still alive, unfortunately. Different informations are being circulated on some channels close to this terrorists, there are those who say he is still in surgery and those who say he is in a secure cell, what is certain is that the hospital in Sulaymaniye is locked down and even some US special operations units are assisting in the protection operation.

Very likely.

This bastard's private protection team includes special ops with US passports. Let's see what the US has to say about this.

Meanwhile, Kubat Talabani also issued a statement condemning the attack. Hahaha. When the Dayrabun border crossing with the Iraqi state is opened, we will see other funny statements.

USA supporting a terrorist this time they are even using special forces to protect them.

Imagine my shock.

Unbelievable how the USA and Russia are working together in proping up the ypg/pkk/sdf filth.

Simply because with the YPG/PKK gone,
1- Turkey will have 1 less enemy to think off and its territorial integrity will be preserved which means it will concentrate on geopolitical growth and its confrontation with Greece

2- With the YPG/PKK gone, USA's plan of dividing Turkey in order to form the Kurdistan state which will act as a US colony and base right in the heart of pro-Russia Syria, Pro-Iran Iraq, and above all weaken Turkey to the point of complete dependence on the US

3- With the YPG/PKK gone, Russia will lose a good bargaining card against Turkey which can possible weaken it. Lets not forget that many Russian elites and Putin wants to invade Turkey sooner or later since Turkey acts as the "Lid" by blocking Russia's geopolitical growth in Africa, Asia, Middle East, Turkic states and above all acts as a geographical barrier to Europe which Putin claims that half of it belongs to the Soviet Union; thus, belonging to Russia


In other words, it is in the benefit of both Russia and the USA to have the PKK/YPG alive and within the vicinity of Turkish borders since a strong Turkey is a demirit not only to Russia but also to the USA.

In the Turkish independance war the Americans if they got in time to Samsun they could have blown up Ataturk's ship.

I always said this before the Americans and the Ottoman governments involvement in stopping the independance movement needs to be looked into more detail.

If woodrow wilson stayed in power this man could have brought in the next partition of Turkiye.

Americans withdrew because the public did not want their funds being wasted on useless wars.

Nowadays the Americans are back in shifiting the boundaries after the cold war they began to undertake sinister plots against Turkish republic.

Usa also does not want a multi polar world in geopolitics. They want to be the top dog on this planet. Usa will never tolerate countries looking out for their interests.

Terrorism is just a nice proxy war playbook. Now look at it where is Al Qaeda and Isis nowadays because their use buy date has passed same story will be pkk.

The very second Türkiye gets its nukes, all of those planes are... PUFF, gone. Just look how untouchable North Korea is and you'll see.

Bill clinton also regrets how the Ukrainians gave up their nukes because of him and Boris yeltsin doing a deal.

Hopefully the people in Turkiye are watching and using this as a precedent.

Independance we always talk about a Bagmisiz Turkiye. Having nukes is what guarantees a Tam Bagimsiz Turkiye.

Exactly, get nukes and sleep tight at night. But make sure to have more than enough of it + the range to reach anyone on earth. After that, obliterate the sympathisants inside the Country and be done with it.

Can you imagine if the Ottomans had nukes.

Even if the Ottomans were collapsing in the 1900s nukes could have prevented Anadolu from being invaded.

North Korea is a country that still lives in the 1950s but with Nukes they cant even get invaded.

Nukes are the equaliser not the Kalashnikov

When you ban the printing press and your religious class destroy schools and universities because they claim its haram to see into Allah secrets, its a miracle that when world war one came around we were not fighting with sticks and stones, let alone dreaming about nuclear weapons.

Even the most poorest nation with nukes will never be invaded.

Best example is Pakistan and NK

How can Turkey prevent a proxy war or sanctions/boycotts, just with nukes?
