  1. I don't see how this is news. From the start Turkey was quite clear about it's deal with Finland and Sweden. If Finland and Sweden don't hold up to the agreement they signed, Turkey will bring the Nato veto back on the table. That isn't a threat per say, that is essentially what all parties already agreed to.

  2. I was going to give this channel a try. But did this lady just seriously claim that the only apartheid regime on the planet is a democracy? Seriously? 🤣🤣

  3.  @peterpeterpeter6315  I don't take sides in this debate but I will say one thing. If you believe there are only 50 guys from Nato on the ground in Ukraine, I have some amazing Atlantic Ocean beach front property in Ohio I'd love to sell you at a really really cheap price.

  4. You'd have to understand why Saudi Arabia actually buys these expensive platforms to fully understand why they're doing this. They have a completely inept military force, they won't even be able to properly use these weapons anyway. The buy these weapons to make their market important enough for the selling nation to be willing to defend them in case of a conflict. The Saudis can't defend themselves. It isn't just about the Jets, it is a strategic move to make themselves an indispensable market for Turkey's military industrial complex. Which also buys their protection.

  5. I vacation in Turkey and have noticed some strange things going on since all these Indians, Pakistanis and Syrians started showing up. More trash, more harassment and more crime. My hope would be that Turkey would simply ban people from places like India and Pakistan.

  6.  @DiogoJ1  I literally laughed at a guy for claiming there were only 50. And you respond by agreeing with me and then assuming I thought there were none? There are times I see people so dumb on these message boards that I lose hope for humanity. And no it's not 100s, it's thousands.

  7.  @nightmark2120  I'm not sure you've actually been following what is going on. A nation wanting to join a collective defense organization while at the same time financing armed groups blowing up hospitals in a member of said organization is simply awkward not to mention "undermining" the organization you're trying to join. Yes Turkey is weak economically but militarily they're quite powerful, more powerful than 90% of Nato members. If you're going to spout rhetoric that's fine but at least do it in a way where it is believable.

  8.  @DiogoJ1  You don't have to vow something to make all your actions point in a certain direction. Also aren't you the same guy who was agreeing with me earlier without realizing you were agreeing with me? lol Also if what you were saying about Nato not supporting Ukraine if Russia wasn't there, then can you kindly explain why they were heavily arming them before Russia was there? I'd love to hear that one.

  9. It is a special flying machine that is going to drop off toilets in India. In the hopes people will figure out how to use them.

  10.  @markvandeventer2411  Because they were hoping to rob the Aussies with outdated tech.

  11.  @nightmark2120  One would imagine that if you have a strong military you'd be more valuable working within a collective unit no? That would be like claiming Malta is a more valuable military asset to Nato than lets say the U.K. because you've decided to say something stupid like "the strength of Nato is not about individual nations but the collective itself. If all nations within a collective are weak, the collective itself will be weak and visa versa. As far as "their actions" if you tried being rational for 2 seconds you'd realize their actions are quite reasonable and would be the reaction of any nation in their shoes. Sweden is asking to join a collective defense organization while at the same time financing armed groups blowing up hospitals in a member of said organization. Yet you find it strange that someone will complain about this? On a scale of 1-10 how insane are you?

  12.  @hu9ar  So again your argument is that if one terrorist organization attacks another terrorist organization they stop being a terrorist organization? My contention is simple, if a non state actor starts blowing things up to achieve a goal. It's a terrorist organization. The definition is quite clear.
    4
  13. Yes because legislation like this will somehow stop a psycho from attacking you right?

  14.  @praisethelegendarymessiahs2617  That still doesn't change the fact they were charging insane fees for the outdated tech doesn't it? If I ask you to sell me an old car, I surely wouldn't be happy if you tried to charge me the price of a brand new Ferrari for it would I? The deal was initially for 30 billion and the French later ballooned the costs to 90 billion along with major delays. I get it, France is used to this tactic because it likes to sell it to smaller nations which it can bully into paying the higher price tag. Unfortunately for France the Aussies weren't as powerless as the French hoped they would be. I'd imagine to make up for this France will either rob some African nation in an arms deal or go to their next best cash cow Greece. Offer them great naval assets for a reasonable price and then triple the price half way through. Again the Aussies weren't about to play that game with France.

  15.  @praisethelegendarymessiahs2617  No matter what argument you make, the Aussies realized they didn't have to get ripped off by the French. They had better options and they took them. Most nations who have a choice won't deal with the French, nor should they

  16. @Rakesh Rao, people have been saying this for 20 years, we haven't seen it come to fruition. Less rhetoric, less cliches please.

  17. @Michelle Maymay, if you're going to use 9/11 as a bench mark for being attacked, Turkey has had like 500 9/11 events with the attackers coming from Northern Syria. According to your logic all of Nato should help Turkey invade Northern Syria? Hmmm

  18.  @Chris689200  The difference being France had no choice but to fight, the war was on their doorstep. The Aussies half way across the planet decided to help. Big difference. France wasn't the reason France was liberated either. It was mostly the English and the Americans who turned the tide as per usual. Don't give meaningless France more credit than they deserve.

  19.  @hu9ar  So if one terrorist organization is fighting with another terrorist organization they automatically stop being a terrorist organization? Is that what I'm supposed to understand from your comment?

  20. @LLoyd Gwasira, When the YPG and PKK make statements claiming they're the same organization fighting for the same thing, do you believe they're lying?
    3
  21.  @lloydgwasira8087  If you stayed in Syria you know then know enough about them to know where they stand. So you're either lying about not knowing that they feel they're fighting for the same cause and are the same group. Or you're lying about spending time in Syria. Which is it? It can't be both.

  22.  @premmahto4855  This might all end up being a blessing in disguise for Europe. It will start the spark that forces the public to get rid of their globalist leaders. Who knows, maybe Europe will be a democracy that does the bidding of their people once again.

  23.  @dani-px2qo  If Armenia actually ran a rational foreign policy they'd be getting these pipelines through their country. Which would give them a nice economic shot in the arm along with the influence of having a majority gas pipeline critical for the world economy going through their territory. But, they always find a way to fuk it up and Georgia takes the spoils.

  24. @UKchatman, You talking about Sweden?

  25. They'll get their own engines up sooner or later. They did the same thing with their drones when the engines and cameras were cut off. It took a while but they just made their own.

  26.  @aragon9173  I think the guy is jealous that like 99% of nations Turkey's people don't defecate on the streets. Must be rough being Indian and looking at the rest of the world.

  27.  @basicinfo8786  Only about 4 or 5 nations can make drones like this. You do realize that facts>your feelings.

  28. @Vidhu, Pakistani and Indian people are the same people. Overseas no one can tell the difference. You look alike and you act exactly the same.

  29. @My Space, to be fair Syria has zero control over these areas in question.

  30.  @inaaronshead1988  To claim this legislation will give women the right to report violence to the authorities and have the matter taken seriously you'd have to assume that right now they don't have the right to report it to the authorities and it isn't taken seriously. If there is already existing legislation which makes domestic violence an illegal act those things are already in play. Do you have some sort of information which can tell us it isn't illegal in that nation to beat the hell out of someone in your home? If not my initial comment still needs to be answered.

  31. If France cared about Greece and it's geopolitical interests, they wouldn't have worked so hard to overcharge them for these vessels. They gave them grand promises about defending them if need be (which everyone knows they won't honor, ask Ukraine about French promises) and used that to sell them some insanely overpriced military tech.

  32. India to the rescue? Are you insane? lol Also would the Indian government be stupid enough to physically back the side which is illegally occupying it's neighbor's internationally recognized territory after ethnically cleansing 800,000 civilians in the 1990s? I doubt India would want the political and legal headaches it would have. All for what? What would India get in return?

  33. @Choi Gold, they already have the pipelines set up. They go from Azerbaijan, through Georgia and Turkey into Europe. If the capacity isn't enough they'll simply build more.

  34.  @jonlaurenzreyes1902  Develop with what human capital exactly? We're literally talking about a nation which doesn't have the capability to produce a pencil yet you expect them to produce Jet Fighter planes? This isn't just about a matter of money. It is a matter of human capital, infrastructure and ability. They don't even have enough talent to run their oil refinaries and rely on skilled workers from abroad to keep their oil fields running. Yet you're asking them to build Jet Fighter planes? Seriously?

  36. @Yeshika Jimo, while I concede there may be more to this than what it seems like on the surface but..... how is it the Army chief's fault when the government picks a fight with a neighbor who's army is 100x stronger and an unwinnable war starts?

  37.  @johnharris3335  Well not exactly. Nations who need other nations to defend them, aren't really in a position to do as they please. So this is going to get interesting. Saudi Arabia is no average nation. It is a country with many enemies and zero means to protect itself.

  38. @Sriram Sridhara, In a full scale war the side with the right drones are actually hoping surface to air missiles are shot at the drone. Even if it had 100% hit rate (which is impossible) each missile to take down a drone costs more than 20 drones. That's a win win for the side with the drones.

  39. @Erij3, They've been quite clear on the issue. They made Finland and Sweden sign an agreement that they will no longer be supporting armed groups attacking Turkey. They also said if Finland and Sweden do not fully adhere to what they signed, the veto is back on the table. Nothing really gets clearer than that.

  40. To be fair the situation in that country is quite different than what is going on in America. Unlike the BLM riots this riot has a lot more support from all segments of society and isn't supported by billions of dollars from people with a political goal in mind.

  41.  @bhaskarmukherjee8710  Better than being the lap dog of a third rate power like France no? At least the United States has the potential to protect the Aussies. That is the entire point of all this isn't it?

  42. @Marlin Software, it's 3.5 billion which is highway robbery considering the lack of tech in these frigates. Not to mention France will probably do what it always does with arms sales. Send it bare bones and then charge insane rates for upgrades and spare parts. Australia saw where that was headed and made a deal with America instead. Buying high end military tech from France is nothing short of stupidity.

  43. @M! the way things are going European nations will probably have Sharia law before Turkey.

  44.  @jeffreyadams648  They don't, because they aren't.

  45.  @lloydgwasira8087  Well if you're actually going to speak about the YPG and PKK, I thought it would be safe to assume you actually knew that they're pretty open about the fact they're the same group fighting for the same cause. If you actually don't know anything they're saying, it means you don't know anything about them. So why are you commenting on matters you admittedly know nothing of? It's strange my man.

  46.  @sakerfalcon5199  When he says survive, he doesn't mean people not dying. He is referring to the collapse of industries. Once they collapse they're hard to put back together.

  47.  @PoorPakistanisSurrenderwasFant  Comparing a nation like that to nations like Pakistan and India is simply ridiculous. I think first Pakistan and India have to teach their people to stop defecating on the streets then it might worry about being compared to civilized nations.

  48.  @akashroy8151  Not sure what India being or not being a Nato member has to do with the war in Ukraine. Ukraine isn't a Nato member either. Do you have to be a Nato member to call an invasion and invasion? Especially when the nation being invaded isn't a Nato member itself? Your comment makes no sense.
    2
  49.  @akashroy8151  You responded to a comment about why India isn't condemning Russia. The fact India isn't in Nato is irrelevant to that question. Unless your contention is that only Nato members are condemning Russia. I'm not saying India should or shouldn't condemn Russia. India is a sovereign state and should do what is in the best interests of her people. But when responding to why India hasn't condemned the invasion, claiming that India isn't part of Nato as a response to that question is ridiculous.
    2
  50.  @akashroy8151  You do need to understand that when you respond with "Is INDIA a NATO member?" Which is exactly what you said in your first post people might assume you're making the argument that one must be in Nato to condemn the invasion. As far as learning from Turkey, I'd imagine there is a lot India can learn from that country. Turkey is a country people try to move to and India is a country no one wants to go to and people who are there want to leave. So yea, learning a thing or two from a nation which attracts so many people would be logical no? I mean don't you want India to be a place so nice others would want to go there? Unless of course you hate India and want it to be a terrible place, then one can argument India has nothing to learn from Turkey.
