Turkey is ruled by the Turkish General Staff. The politicians - no matter what party is elected - serve the military and act as a cover.
If only that were true (they were in favor of helping us out in Iraq to get more favors). Unfortunately, they've lost control to the islamowhackos who have reduced the military's power to get on the good side of the EU.
About "Metal Storm" you've got to be kidding me, an alliance of the EU and Russia beat us? They can't defend themselves, much less defend another country. Honestly, Turkey would probably do just as well fighting on its own. They probably wouldn't be a cakewalk either.
