President Erdogan says US must choose: 'FETO or Turkey'

"Sooner or later the U.S. will make a choice: either Turkey or FETO," Erdogan said.

"Either the coup-plotting terrorist FETO or the democratic country Turkey. [The U.S.] has to make this choice," he said, referring to the Gulen-led Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO) which Ankara says mounted the bloody coup attempt through rogue elements within the military.

How about neither. Maybe an independent Kurdistan.

That should annoy the Turks.

The US has regularly thrown the Kurds under the bus, this time it is just the Obama DemoRat bus, and everybody under the sun is already under that bus, I wonder if there is room for the Kurds.

Personally, I like the Kurds, especially their women.

< Obama will probably surrender to Turkey.

Or he'll just ask for billions stacked on pallets delivered to his doorstep. Seems to be all the rage nowadays...

Way past time to move those strategic nukes. I think at some point we are going to have to kick Turkey out of NATO.

For reference Fetullah Gulen movemet is the long prepped progressive version of Islam. The left has been funding it for years with the idea of subverting Islam as it’s subverted the western Church with progressive Christanity.

Hey Erdogan, you islamiscist POS, I am one American who would celebrate the day we green-glassed your $1,000,000,000.00 palace ity you in it. Thanks to you Turkey’s time in NATO is nearly over and I will enjoy Putin and Russia booting Muslim animals out of Byzantium.

There are between 50 and 95 B-61 gravity bomb nuclear weapons there, each with a yield of 0.30 to 340 kilotons. They weigh near 700 pounds each.

Not an easy chore considering circumstances.

Yep, Erdogan pulled an Obama on Obama, and crushed "progressive" Islam easy as pie.

I’ll laugh as soon as the last military aircraft with the last airman from Incirlik is in international airspace, preferably with 60 warheads aboard, leaving F-16s to straff the flight line back to the stone age.
