You, my friend, are a friend. I have seen your posts on multiple threads and they are reasonable, thoughtful, and...Turkish.
Let's take as a given that you represent Turkish and American common ground. Having said that, you have expressed exasperation with the U.S. on a few points. Explain, maybe?
What bothers me is the general nature of "lovem and leavem" foreign policy. There are no friends out there, just users. Agreements are meant to be broken, and promises are made to not be kept.
The whole bit about making Turkey look like an extortionist was a sham. Result? A big FU..
