:: Let me guess: We built those air bases. ::
The dhimmicrats at DU and HuffPo will equivocate and say that ^Halliburton^ built them.

Yep! Tons of our money went into building the bases and maintaining them in addition to what the people stationed there spend on the local economy and the money spent on employing locals.

I had the same thought. Greece can have their territory back, if this is how Turkey is going to treat us from here on in.

Bush Sr should have landed in Turkey and kill every Turk that resisted the 4th ID on the way to their objectives inside Iraq in 2003.

Once again highlighting his nine year old approach to things.
You don't announce it until it's a done deal.
Now he comes off looking like a child.

We have such a grand coalition that the moron Kerry has to go over there and find one.
Its fun to watch liberals try to prosecute a war. Its like cutting your lawn with a pair of scissors.

Looks like this alliance is already breaking up. The Brits already said they will not be dropping bombs on Syria.

The Brits have a lot on their plate at the moment - including an ISIS hostage who they will not name in the press. Of course, if Obama had tried to have a friendship with someone...anyone...in that government maybe the situation would be different.
In the immortal words of Stanley Kowalski: HA HA!

But of course!
Turkey refused to let Colin Powell use their bases to launch the attack Saddam Hussein. Why would they let Obama?

Obama won’t ask to launch from Israel because he doesn’t want to upset the Muzzies.

IF you wonder why Turkey is in NATO, just take a look at the geography on an old map that still has the USSR identified.
To: Enlightened1

It goes to show how most of the world doe snot respect us anymore and yet they called Bush a cowboy

Okay, I’ll ask the obvious question. Would they dare turn us down if POTUS were other Obama?
