next time they should try this with Marines (https://www.grogheads.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.perugiamurderfile.org%2Fimages%2Fsmilies%2Fpunish2.gif&hash=d5a5a0a690bb846972fa6c5070d4a1356c53873f)
before they ask the US to leave Turkey they should call all there 1.5 Mio scumbags which hangs around in my beloved country back to their motherland :tickedoff:
Yeah that pissed me off too. Not that it changes the situation but the whole thing looks totally staged for the cameras.
Fing bizarre. Who would want that video out there?
The Turks better get a clue. Russia has wanted that area forever. It landlocks their navy if NATO needs it. While Russia puts Nuke capable missiles in Crimea these tards try to get the US out. I wonder how they will do as Comrade Akkkkmed.
Now you're cooking with gas. It would be cool to watch the Russians and Turks exhaust each other and make the world a better place at the same time.

Not so fast.
Turkey is a member of NATO.
We said that already. The question is who would set this video up?
How much longer will Turkey stay in NATO with no EU membership? And with secularism fading, so is the possibility of EU membership. Which takes us back to what Kev said...how badly do the Turks want to run from Westernization and into the burning hole of Islamic radicalism?
I don't think these are Islamist radicals. They've got Atatürk pictures. Extreme Turkish nationalism can be a really weird thing and ugly. It can be very xenophobic. I don't know much of this group or how many there are, though but think it stinks as bad as the far right in Greece, which also has a xenophobic agenda.
Read this book I highly recommend it. You will have a new insight to the lengths these animals will go to when driven by Pan-Turanism's frenetic wave: http://www.amazon.com/Ships-Mercy-Rescue-Greeks-September/dp/1931807663
I can't believe the world just sits there and let's these people repeat their ugly past over and over again.
The most recent was the early 1950s when the last Greeks and Armenians and Jews were forced out of istanbul in 1955 etc. One of my uncle a family is from there, and left after that last mess. Although the Greeks weren't 100℅ kind either in the 1919-1922 campaign. These people did not get along and its still tense between govts I was there in instanbul in 2008 visiting didn't have problems, but like all societies there's Extremists.
That lot are an ignorant bunch of bastards. The US guys are doing nothing to provoke, and it's not as though Turkey is exactly a moral role model for other nations. Heck they're still in denial over the Armenian genocide, and still in illegal occupation of Northern Cyprus 40 years later. The country they occupy today is only theirs by virtue of the murder of the original inhabitants in conjunction with their tribal migrations from Central Asia. It's hypocritical, since it seems they haven't learnt anything since.

To be fair, that describes most places on the planet at one time or another.
That said, we're trying to rise above that in these modern times. Success has been somewhat limited.
No question that tribes come and occupy and take over land that was not historically theirs to begin with. This has been happening since day one of human history.
The difference is that some tribes excel at destroying and telling lies about it and contribute nothing positive to human kind while others although initially butcher the inhabitants at least contribute to human kind with the arts and sciences. Several centuries may pass but civilized cultures try to right the wrongs they've committed.
