The U.S. has started to pull its Patriot missiles stationed in Turkey, despite a recent appeal from Ankara to its NATO allies to keep the air and missile defense units at a delicate time on the border with Syria.
Patriot missiles were initially deployed at the Gaziantep 5th Armored Brigade Command in southeastern Turkey after the country appealed to its NATO allies to guard against rockets from Syria.

Obama at his best.
Good. We dont need to defend these mudslime pukes.
Ash Carter is de-escalating, thankfully.
He’s really good at surrendering and embarrassing the U.S. Can’t stand up to ISIS, Russia, China, or even the Benghazi attackers.
I thought Erdogan and Bama were best buddies.

Good. We dont need to defend these mudslime pukes.

I agree. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the need for Turkey to be included in NATO evaporated. Believe me, the Turks would NEVER come to our defense if it were not in its interests. I’ll always remember how they denied the US the ability to go into Iraq from the north...certainly costing American lives.
They did help us in Korea.
True dat. But that is ancient history and long before Turkey began the slow process of slip-sliding away into Islamism. It’s on that path now.
That was before the mudslimes took over.
Apparently Obama’s Sec Def is Putin’s.

Sorry, I got a mental image of an actual turkey all plucked and ready for roasting but with a face and Obama pulling a missile out of its ... back side and it looked painful...
Like a thermometer ...
I wonder if it can measure nuclear blast temps...
Remember how the Turks refused the 4th ID to enter Iraq thru Turkey? The Turkish parliament denied us permission.
Nothing Obama does makes sense.
They are members of NATO. I do not want to go to war for them either, but a Patriot Missile is just a defensive thing.
Yes.
