I guess I am behind the curve on this one. Hadn't heard, nor had I suspected, allegations that Turkey was cozy w/ Iran, esp. re nuclear materials. Wow. It's time for the pretense of NATO membership to come to a screeching halt, if so; and maybe it should end anyway. Turkey is making some changes that would have been unthinkable just a decade ago.
for a few years there at least, Turkey looked like it was overcoming the savagery and insanity of the Islamic world.
Since it has shown recent signs of reverting back to the 7th century, it will be very much best to prevent it from getting nuclear weapons now
(it also does not belong in NATO now, either, that’s pretty clear)
"Demanding" is what Turks excell at (and little else besides). Visit Europe sometime...
Little TurkoHitler Erdogan would just love to have have his very own TurkoNuke...to proliferate to his islamist brethren, of course.
Turkey needs to be kicked out of NATO and back to the 7th century where it belongs, and feels comfortable at.
This is a country that weight-tests new equipment in its main shipyard in Istanbul with people, vice bags of sand or cement blocks like the rest of the world. In Ankara in 2008, when their reservoirs ran dry, they diverted the ‘Red River’ to people’s taps. This was the same water they wouldn’t allow for irrigation of crops due to dangerously high arsenic levels, but it came flowing out of faucets in millions of apartments. Given their track record, they should do really well with anything nuclear.
