A nation of fools
That upsets all the reasons the Saudis have for trying to turn Syria into multiple States since without Turkey being a NATO member there's no way they'll trust the Turks to not extort ever higher fees from them in return for allowing gas to flow to Europe. They understand the underhanded games the Ukrainians played with the pipeline from Russia through Ukraine to the EU and they're not going to set themselves up for that sort of blackmail.
JMHo
No more so than the U.S. serfs in 2008 & 2012...
A nation of muzzies.
We came damn close to doing the same.
One more muslim country that the WEST will have to deal with.
Will NATO eject Turkey?
Well a nation with a lot of fools, and as pioneers of secular democracy, it’s sad to see. I bet a lot of people in this country would have voted to give Obama dictatorial powers.
I am hearing though that these results are not legit, in fact there is little reason to believe they are. The Sultan stuffed the ballot box. I do not think he’s a jihadist, I think he’s a wanna be Putin style dictator (and now he can lose the wanna be part) who uses religious rhetoric to gin up the vote from ignorant rural peasants and wants to expand his countries power. And that’s bad enough.
Turkey is one of those countries with no one for decent people to vote for, not since the Sultan took over the center-right party.
I hope there’s a coup at some point, preferably a real one this time. The last one was either staged entirely or most the pathetic attempt since Venezuela 2002.
