Look war machines don't matter big time. It is man who matters.
Yes and I could argue that many times,the few greeks or Armenians or Hungarians or Croats,fought back and won against the Ottomans. But let's not go there.
I belive turkey has historical edge on Greek.
Are you going to mention 1453,1922 and 1974 again? They all do. A gazillion wars and it all boils down to these three.
Third turkey has done quite well in 4 recent wars which they participated Syria Iraq Azerbaijan Libya.
They fought in Syria against rebels with no air force and few heavy artillery. And,I respect the dead soldiers,but they still lost,how many tanks? 10 Leopard 2A4s and how many M60s? Armored vehicles? And how many men lost when the Russians intervened in Idlib?
In Libya they saved the GNA from collapse,but they only had time because the LNA were waiting for days and days,trying to broker some kind of deal. In the end,when the LNA's allies intervened by air,they caused serious damage. But again,the Egyptians didn't end up getting in Libya.
NKR war? They did help Aliyev very well and that was a triumph for them. But then again...Armenia? With Pashinyan actually hintering reinforcements and weapons to Artsakh? But they do get bragging rights there.
It was an triumph of Azerbaijan and their brother,Turkey.
Look you can attack with big machines but on ground you need people who can fight n who are ready to give their life. Here again turkey will have edge on Greek. People will come from Afghanistan n central Asia Africa to fight for turkey.
But that's what you don't understand: There are many people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their country. Many brave people and this have been proven throughout our history since anqtiquity.
Who will come from Asia and Africa to fight for Turkey? Maybe some hundreds of volunteers,but the others will be mercenaries.What will Somalis,Syrians,Libyans,Afghans do? They will have the role of light infantry. Bashi-bazuks. Maybe even cannon fodder.
No offense to Greece I think Greece has no chance because young generation from Europe is useless when it comes to give their life for bigger case.
Ok this....hmmm. You're not entirely wrong here. It's a good thing that in the Balkans the people are more conservative. Yes,there are a lot of communists,a lot of leftists and a lot of people who will say "I'm leaving the country",but thank God there are still so many who will fight for their homes and motherland.
But I get your point. Yes,the Western world has become very "soft" with all the political correctness,SJW stuff,the modern culture and LGBT movements...it's like they try to spread this thing to the entire world.
