Well, this is absurd because what you say is absurd.Turkey will retain NATO membership for as long as possible and if it comes to a critical juncture, the Turks may well leave NATO. Turkey is already on the way to self reliance in defence and enhancing relations with China. They may even obtain nukes from Pakistan. I know this seems absurd to u because its not in ur manual, this is real politik.
First of all, Turkey have beef (Land dispute) with Greece, and if Turkey withdraw form NATO, Greece will most likely be attacking Turkey (or vice versa) and which mean unless you are telling me Turkey can withstand a full NATO assault, that's suicide.
This is the exact reason why Turkey joined NATO in the first place.......
Second of all, you real politik is not exactly how you say. This is not a "take all you want" situation here. And do you really think if you can think of that, the NATO Member would not and wouldn't kick Turkey Out already??
