I think that after NLF got its a*s kicked out of Idlib hayat al sham seized the weapons
Or maybe HTS bought them off the books from other groups who receive them
It's up for turkey' intelligence to solve the mystery
On a sarcastic note I wonder what a turkish sherlock Holmes would look like...
You have 3.5 million Syrians In turkey if half of them as bad as you say then that's 1.75 million criminals and rapists ( with that figure there should be chaos sp where is it)
I still cant understand why this forum allows hate comments and speech especially if it's ridiculous
Are the Syrians...
Thanks for the link it's a good read learned from it
The PKK wanted the TSK to do what you are saying playing smart is what's needed even if it cost some small equipment and PR shananigens besides the TSK is the most humane army on the planet at the moment ( as I see it ) so even tho others...
I disagree
This is a forward base all it will take is a pkk element with a gun within the crowd to kill few soldiers in riot gear
The TSK job should not include crowd control in such a hostile environment far from border ( outside country ) it's too risky
Not sure but no army has such...
You are correct
But there is a problem Even tho the TSK action is correct and the whole incident is insignificant and another pkk fail
all that will eventually matter is what the people will believe and they will believe what they see
Right now all they see is turkish base and tanks on fire...
Ok so the situation ended in the best possible way ( considering )
The PKK provocation was aimed at forcing the TSK to engage those youth and thus tarnishing Turkey's reputation and goodwill in Iraqi Kurdistan as whole ( reducing turkey influence )
So good job TSK for constraint which means...
I gotta admit the turkish government has balls
The reinforcements to border with Idlib and police arresting HTS in turkey means one thing:
Turkey operation will be for both east of Euphrates and Idlib simultaneously
That a very huge scale operation which justifies why even old tanks are now...
Ok does anyone know Russia's Armata tanks ??
Russia a country that is most experienced when it comes to land vehicles and Tanks yet it is still pushing back the Armata production
From 2014 now deliveries to be completed in 2024
So give Turkey which is still new at tanks a damn break...
God dammit
When I first saw PDF there wasn't this much hate and insults
But now it looks like a 10 year old boys playground in which everyone is easily offended and is easily insulting
Opinions are filled with hatred and arguments rarely result in anything positive
SHAME
Besides where...
Wrong and wrong
Turkey has heavily invested in syria by now and all that effort should not be wasted
Even if a deal with Assad takes place be reminded he is turkey's enemy and that's as stupid as the peace agreement you had with the PKK long ago
At the moment Turkey has a leverage and is...
Actually Euphrates shield OP destroyed any Hope's for that long ago
And olive branch only added salt to the injury ( having a puppet state is impossible now and that without russia in the mix but it is as well )
The real reason behind this op is even tho there is no puppet state there would...
That's the smartest move that is the move it's all about stages
But the sdf/ypg/PKK will go all out unless there is a background deal between turkey and the US not to mention the rockets and drones that will be fired into border territories its proven pkk will hit civilians
God help Turkey...
Sorry to jump in on the discussion but do you know what a meaningless victory is??
Why keep the pastor ??? What purpose or benefit ??
What was the damage behind pastor detention ??
Think of it and Compare the answers and then see what action would serve Turkey best
Let me put it this way (...
It's weird that just as the Turkish and Chinese governments are trying to get along better ( increase trade and china announcing turkey tourism year and establishing level contact)
This trolling happens on the forum
To all Turks and Chinese here suck it up because your two countries are...
Actually I hope they take their time and prepare well
The last two ops you lost an average of 60 men and more but now you are attacking a 30,000 force equipped with tons of US made weapons on a 450 km border Turkey will be lucky if it lost no more than a 1000 men by the time it's over ( even if...
Unlikely since that would damage his image after all those threats no one would take him seriously
Turkey won't launch an all out attack it will be limited and it will hit critical spots
Destroying the YPG supply and unity also its link to iraq hopefully
The US response has been nothing but...
Israel will destroy itself honestly
The way the country is behaving and the mentality behind it are simply not sufficient for long term dominance
To back up my argument :- everyone knows how much support is given to israel whether money in billions yearly from the US and others or by military...
Actually it showed the opposite
The end of the movie showcased that Russia and America work together for the greater good of humanity
Spoiler ahead :-
Lol at the end it is the Russians who save the american submarine
