When do the kid gloves come off?
There are no beggars in my city of 40k population.
If Turkey is indeed trying to stop the massive flow of migrants to Lesbian (i.e., Greece), perhaps I’m misunderestimating them a bit. Maybe they are good guys?
Tell me more.
Guess the Turks have been listening to Donald Trump.
