The guy is a hardcore Anti-Kemalist btw and practically a Islamist. His entire mission is to firmly attach islam to every aspect of Turkish history and culture, even when it isnt remotely true. I used to follow that guy, but seriously fvck him. Good posts from him are few and far in between. You...
No your point was that Turkey cant project any power without aircraft carriers for whatever reason. And now you are saying that Turkey can and does have infact power projection.
You assume Egypt can do all of those things without the slighest repurcussions. Egypt can destroy GNA airbases, in...
Jezus Christ... so Turkey does project power? What is your whole point again lmao? Do you even know what argument you are trying to make hahaha. Seriously i dont laugh often but what in gods name is the point you are trying to make here?
The drones where operating fine from the very start of the conflict, so i dont know what argument you are trying to make here. The GNA is directly backed by Turkey, in what world do you think that Egypt will get directly involved in the conflict and target whilst Turkey wont do anything? If...
We dont need aircraft carriers? There is a reason why Turkey is going to take over Al-Watiya Air base. Turkish drones have played a keyrole in the entire conflict, and that was without the full capabilities of the Turkish Air Force. Now that Al-Watiya is going to be used, there will be a base of...
Turkey has a more powerfull navy and presence. Regardless of your personal preference and idealogy, its stupid to say Turkey cant project power as they already did for years in the form of supporting GNA with resources and personal. Its also isnt just as easy as just going to a base or harbor...
With all due respect if people are taking an article in Arabic Russia Today seriously and as unbiased/reliable source then you are the most gullible person there is.
The author is notorious for being unreasonably negative about the Turkish defence indusry. Thats not to say that there isnt some truth spinkeled here and there. I tend to agree with those article mostly and so does a lot of Turkish posters no doubt. Its not so much that you personaly are...
So TLDR is:
1. Americans refused to upgrade the Egyptian F-16's with the latest technology and weapons(probably to keep Israel's technological superiority?) and only allowed for limited mid-life upgrade packets.
2. The Egyptian shot themselves in the foot by not signing the CISMOA, therefor...
Why dont you just provide some form of proof considering you are the one that makes the allegations, not that it would make the slighest difference considering that Turkey sees MB as a usefull ally. Muslim Brotherhood are a bunch of conservative islamist dipshits but are by no means a violent...
The GNA is not associated with the MB from what i can tell so thats a strawman. It was the LNA who commited massacres and warcrimes, not the GNA, if things such as morals even are a factor in your eyes.
Excuse me lol wtf? I think we are on a whole different wavelenght here. Secularism is a defining feature of a progressive and technologicaly advanced civilization. The flow of free thought and information without religion oppression and percecution is fundementally important to the future of a...
Nothing is so black and white. If the Arab GCC throw their weight behind the PKK then it will essentialy create a de-facto Iran/Turkey alliance that will be unsustainable for them. Currently we are indifferent to one another, neither liking or hating each other so they wouldnt risk such a thing...
Yeah i remember the bans being thrown around. It was a disgusting display of "brotherhood" from Pakistani users and mods. I still cant get that taste out of my mouth and has basically irreparably damaged my view of this forum. I left after that for quite some time aswell. Its the reason why i...
