That's good news but I just don't understand why Turkey does not deploy Hawk phase iii/xv and Rapier SAM's into the Idlib theatre
Both of those systems + MANPADS would provide long range, medium range and low range coverage against Russian and Assad jets which will force them to fly higher and...
Why doesn't Turkey send HAWK Phase iii SAM into Hatay and Northern Idlib?
It has 40km range...
You can also add rapier systems as well for added coverage.
lol one more day of talks?
For What purpose? To hear Lavrov lecture you on how Russian Armed Forces are gonna help Assad steamroll over the whole of Idlib whether Turkey likes it or not.
I don't what Erdogan is doing right now but this is EMBARRASSING. Mark my words if 1 million refugees flee...
This is Izetbegovic level of diplomacy
Basically to cut a long story short. The first president of Bosnia Alija Izetbegovic was from a similar political mold to Erdogan and had literally no military experience what so ever.
At the beginning of the Bosnian war in 1992 whilst Serb forces took...
wtf does Erdogan think he is doing? Why is he AWOL? Where the **** is the response to Assad prostitute dog bastard shelling?
This is a fucking joke. Turkish goverment still want to talk with Russia? Anyone with at least two brain cells in their head can see that Russia is just buying time for...
in Turkey pictures of Ataturk & Erdogan fly side by side:
You see this would be unthinkable in a country like Egypt, Iraq or Syria. Where people fight over ideological and tribal affiliation to this day. Even a foreign invader would not change that dynamic. Imagine if Gamal Abdel Nasr's...
You underestimate the unifying factor of Turkish Nationalism
The Nationalism you see in Turkey is much different to Arab Nationalism which really only acts as a buffer against Muslim Brotherhood Islamism (in the case of Egypt) or to prop up one family, sect or tribe (in the case of Syria).
As...
lol trump is just a stooge who is being used by the Zionists & Russia
If you think he controls government decisions you are deluded. US Presidents have been ZOG puppets since WW2
It doesn't matter Turkey has to take a stand eventually
If Idlib falls up to 3 million people could enter Turkey and would spell DOOM for that nation. If Erdogan does not do anything and let's the Russians walk all over him then there really is no point for the Turkish nation to get respect...
Hate to say this but Turkish Army right now in Idlib are looking as usefull as the UN forces in Yugoslavia
I know it's not the Turkish Army's fault for this but the coward spineless politicians in Ankara who are failing them. If Idlib falls Erdogan has to go.. And I say this as someone who...
Obvious cover up is obvious
I wonder how many KIA's they really had? I knew when Trump released his "all is well" tweet that they must of took at least half a dozen serious casualties. Typical reverse psychology bullshit that is easy to see through.
lol so Iran did not even manage to hurt one US soldier with their rocket attack and are now running a blatant cover up of shooting down a Ukranian airliner that had over 100 of their own citizens on board
epic fail
I just don't see Iran doing this without some sort of Russian approval
I am guessing Putin gave them the green light via Assad. Maybe the visit was also to reassure Assad that Russian Air Assetts will protect his forces in case Israel tries to join in any US/International response
IMO, due to the missiles being launched from Iran they must of got the okay from Russia to do this
Maybe that's what Putins unscheduled visit to Damascus was all about?
Ukraine has the Buk M1 in inventory
It could be possible that they could work togethor to produced an upgraded version of the system with a max range of 50km. Similar to the Chinese LY-80 or Russian Buk M2E
Which means by 2025 Turkey could have these systems available to defend it's airspace...
The guy told me he is 100% ethnic turk from Turkey - unless he was lying to me of course. He even said that Turkey committed an "Armenian Genocide".
Apples and Oranges
Turkey has a strong history with nationalism and preserving national identity. Bosnia had to deal with 45 years of Communist...
