No NATO Ukraine No-Fly Zone, But NATO's Turkey Sets Russian No-Sail Zone
Newsweek via MSN ^ | 2/28/2022 | Olga Maltseva

This COULD get dicey as Russia supplies Syria. Israel has fun bombing that port. If Turkey adds a front will the Kurds open a front?

?The Russians will probably sail through The Bosporus in force and dare the Turks to do anything to stop it. The Crimean peninsula was Peter the Great’s least favorite option for a warm water port, they want direct access to the Mediterranean and seizing Constantinople would do it.

The Turks are not known for mental acuity at times...

The “g” has a cedil on it and is pron. something like “gw”, hence, Erdogwan. No dragon.

Putin’s got nukes and threatens to use them. Erdogan doesn’t.

No one started a fight with Putin, he started and will continue to start more until someone caps him.

Ok. No dragon. But he still would like to bite your ass lol. But seriously, I worry more about Erdogan than Russia. There are billions of muslims. If Erdogan was to do what Bin Laden couldn’t do an become a latter day Saladin or Ottoman sultan with nuclear weapons it will be perpetual nightmare

Western Europe is being colonised by muslims. Demographics are destiny. Sooner or later they will have greater influence over the foreign policy of countries like Germany and France. Germany will become militaristic again and it won’t be lebensraum that will cause it’s renewed effort to expand east. It will be a fusion of Prussian militarism and islamic jihad. In the big scheme of things, it may well be Holy Russia that throws a wrench in the cogs in 2100 and helps preserve what remains of Christendom in Europe. Including in Ukraine. Who knows

Muzzies are more likely to kill each other, as the Chechens have done, with the winner turning into an ally of Putin. And Putin's Russia has been helping Iran get the bomb. Start making sense.

Hmm, the same NATO Turkey that bought Russian S-400 Surface-to-Air missiles in defiance of the United States, and subsequently got kicked out of the F-35 program?

I don't trust Turkey. This could be a deliberate set-up by Russia and Turkey to invoke Article 5.

this is meaningless. The Russian Black Sea Fleet is already in....the Black Sea. They probably have a few smaller ships at a Syrian base, but if they thought they needed them they would have moved them before hand.
