Kick Turkey out of NATO!
Its past time, Europe. It was a mistake to include them.
Turkey has hoodwinked NATO.
Macron should hit Erdogan with his feather pillow for lettin’ the Islamic trash in his country kill his citizens.
Free expression of opinion is for chumps. Allah and Mohammed got no time for chumps.
I’m pleasantly surprised to see that mama’s boy Macron actually has a spine.
Maybe too little too late for western Europe - and the same for us if Trump doesn’t win.

We cannot kick Turkey out of Germany without at least warning Germany about their close ties Russia. The purpose of NATO was to protect Europe from Russian aggression. Turkey and Germany have made an ally of Russia.

“The purpose of NATO was to protect Europe from Russian aggression. Turkey and Germany have made an ally of Russia.”
We should get out of NATO.
Take all that money and reimburse Americans for the cost of the cold war.
This is no surprise. Turkey ha been a loose cannon for many years. But for now, they are too dependent on their allies to just jump off the bridge.

Erdogan is positioning himself as the Leader of European Muslims.
****************
How many of the Muslim immigrants passed through Turkey, on the way to Europe? Of course he speaks for them. He facilitated their passage to spread Islam.
NATO has outlived its purpose. The only reason that we stay in is to protect our own interests. Trump has done pretty good handling the NATO alliance. He is staying out of the Turkey thing because it is a problem between NATO Allies and inferring would not benefit the US. Turkey benefits from cooperating with the US on other issues like Syria, as long as we stay out of his dealings with Greece and the EU. Since Germany has not been a very good ally, there is little incentive to involve ourselves.
“Since Germany has not been a very good ally, there is little incentive to involve ourselves.”
We still have troops there, costs alot of money.
Germans are not our allies, NEVER have been.
They hate the USA.
We’re wasting money there that could be used here.
Like Muslims the Left in the West has proven that they were only interested in those while it served their interest. Taqiyya and Left wing ethics have a lot in common.
