Turkey has to be out of NATO immediately.
so what’s news?
two enemy thug regimes, both of which play off the west (albeit by different tactics) for free money and goodies galore
Turkey is NOT our friend.
Turkey always has been “the sick man of Europe”.
WHO CARES?
Our wondeful NATO non-ally.
Well how about FU?
Turkey, Iran, and Pakistan would seem to be natural allies as the principle non-Arab nations between Europe and India.
Populations are Turkey, 85 million; Iran, 88 million; and Pakistan, 231 million. Their collective population would be over 400 million, and with Azerbaijan and other Central Asian nations close to half a billion.
Turkey and Iran are not of the same cloth and Iran is Shiite for sure. And radical, they don’t particularly care for each other and Sunni and Shiite each consider each other infidels. But they share a common enemy. Israel, and all of the west.
That said, Nato will never agree to remove turkey from its ranks. Will never happen. But there is a way:
Turkey clearly considers the west and enemy. Europe included. There is only one recourse and action that will remove Turkey from Nato.
Since most of the money for Nato comes from the US all we have to do is issue an ultimatum to All the Nato signatories.
“You must remove Turkey from Nato or the United States will both stop funding Nato and leave.” If Nato refuses to remove turkey, they loose the majority of their funding. No other recourse
We must stop funding Nato until Turkey is removed from it. There is no other way ...Nato either looses most of its funding and all those pretty little flying toys or Nato forces Turkey out.
I wonder if our lawmakers have thought of this?
