Also Greeks and Turks have hated each other for a millennia

I’m kinda confused about things, but I’ve noticed a few things the last few days about it

 

[American Deplorable]

He thinks he has leverage over NATO expansion so he is pulling every lever just to see what he rack up in concessions

Turkey wants to claim oil rich areas in the Med sea that is technically Greek owned. Greece can't get the oil and won't lease it to Turkey so Erdogan wants to just take it.

Wayment. So a NATO “ally” is worried about the biggest dick swinger in NATO placing its military in a region that belongs to another NATO ally? This seems counterproductive.

You also have to add that Erdogan publicly stated the CIA was behind a military coup that attempted to unseat him as president.

Imagine how this all started over a piece of ass

Greece donated military equipment to Ukraine. We wanted them to donate more but they said they couldn't spare it because they were afraid they'd need it for Turkey. So the good ole US of A told Greece that we would give them brand new shiny weapons to replace any 80's era soviet shit they gave to Ukraine. So the US is giving tons of new weapons to Greece while Turkey is looking at a conflict with them and we are supposed to be allies with Turkey.

Turkey also bought the Russian air defense system that pissed off nato.

We've got more money than we know what to do with, it's ok.

The surplus comes to us in the shithole countries and the remining surplus goes to funding wars

Soon, NATO contracts will have clauses like

Article 678
(a) do not deal with non NATO members in the eastern bloc.

(b) any relationship with the east,implied or expressed attracts automatic cancellation of membership.

It always surprises me when I’m reminded that Turkey is part of NATO

 

[skramer100]

This is what happens when the only superpower is weak AF. The media and elites wanted this and I am starting to believe they didn't realize how bad it would really get. But since they are all in they can't go back and Kamala is weaker then Biden. This shit show will have to continue until 2025. I am honestly hoping Rs take 37 state legislatures and go all in with constitutional convention to change things. Won't happen but outside of war that is all I see fixing this issue.

Greek food is awesome. Turkish food is disgusting. That's all I got.
