  1. Turkey should be expelled from NATO, for the disingenuous, duplicitous, non-ally, and enabler of our enemies, that they are.

    Those Patriot batteries should be withdrawn to Europe, where they belong, and forward deployed to the Baltic States, and Poland, where they might do some good helping deter further Russian aggression.

    Then, we should arm the Kurds to the teeth (including the PKK), so they can establish their so well deserved, independent Kurdistan, carved from Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Turkey.

    The Kurds will prove grateful, loyal, and stalwart allies; second in regional importance, only to the Israelis.

    1. Agree with the expulsion of turkey from NATO. Unfortunately, it will not happen. NATO is gutless just as BAD as the UN and the other organisations that are currently trying to sort out the mess with the azeri’s who have broken every single ceasfire order. That mob too will not do anything – they just get paid for doing nothing. Amazing? not really! they just love wearing their suits and have meetings with no conclusive decisions.

  2. If this was Syria or Iran the media would be all over them. Hell,…. If The Republic of Armenia did such a thing then the European Union together with PACE and Human Rights Watch would admonish them.
    But as it’s Turkey a key NATO ally and has a large diaspora in Europe, who, to a large extent (particularly in Germany) support Erdogan then Europe will turn a blind eye.
    I remember when the riots broke out in Armenia a few years back and there was this electric Yerevan protest, it was all over the western media with Armenians calling the government of Armenia a regime. One should learn a few things from Turks, they mostly support their leaders and don’t bad mouth them, which in turn doesn’t give western powers an excuse to intervene and destabalise their country.
