    By the way, there are suspiciously little materials from there ... How many forces, where are the skirmishes of the equipment, the strength, losses .... are silent about something?

      Turkey - New White House Favorite
      JULY 31, 2015 08:05
      .. "against the background of Washington's reformatting of the region into the Greater Middle East, which would better correspond to the changed and significantly increased interests of the United States, the White House is pushing Turkey to a leading position instead of already" worked favorites ".

      Such a choice, of course, was not accidental. The United States, which has gradually developed and shaped the doctrine of approximation and, at the same time, containment of Turkey, today is trying to actively use a number of regional problems in order to block and certain isolation of Turkey in Europe. In some areas, Washington is actively opposing Turkey’s expansion, in others it does not limit its aspirations, hoping for a clash of its interests with the positions of major regional powers, including Russia, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Israel, other countries and using these contradictions in their own purposes ......
      ... How this "love duet" between the United States and Turkey will end - time will tell, but, for some reason, there is a living example of other favorites already rejected by the White House, which Turkey may join tomorrow, having fulfilled the role assigned to it by Washington in the result is that it has tarnished its international reputation ...

        The photo is funny, there are conformal tanks, but this is not enough, you still need to install suspended fuel tanks.

        I am generally struck by the Turkish choice to start a war with the Kurds ............. and in Turkey itself a third of the Kurdish population. Lessons of Ukraine generally passed by ???

    Turks defend oil from Iraq, presumably ISIS, from Kurds. Oil transit to Turkey goes through Iraqi Kurdistan. IMHO, the Turks will lay down their bones, spitting on any international norms and their own losses, in order to break through this corridor. Apparently, our Turkish Stream also slowed down. The Turks early felt like the hubs of the universe.

    "The situation in Turkey has escalated sharply after the July 20 terrorist attack by the Islamic State (IS) in Suruch on the border with Syria and the killing of police officers in the southeastern provinces, for which the PKK took responsibility."

    I wonder why the Kurdistan Workers Party took responsibility if the terrorist attack was organized by the IG. It smacks of provocation. Now the Turks are hammering on the Kurds who are fighting with the IG. Who benefits? Turkey and the United States.

    Politics is a dirty thing and does not immediately reveal all true details. For whose interests Turkey is fighting, we will find out somewhere in a year.

    Why does no one in the world community think that the Turks are bombing Iraqi citizens? Syrian citizens? Because the Kurds are a divided people living in the territory included in these three countries, i.e.
    Turkey is engaged in the genocide of Kurds not only at home, but also in neighboring countries, instead of fighting ISIS. Can the UN create a couple of tribunals on pressing issues?

      Iran Kurds do not really like, because big Kurdistan and Iran also includes. And not to him Kurds.

      Now the battle is actually going on:
      - Iraq, in the Anbar cabin, have already entered Fallujah and the battles in Ramadi. Iran uses army tactical groups + volunteer militias + Iraqi army. Suleimani actually commands all the actions.

      - Syria, everything is hard in the north, more or less in the south. Khesa with CAA get 400 dollars in the boiler.

      - Yemen, everything suddenly went awry, in Aden, a sea landing was launched from unknown ships (aliens, for example), which briskly shot down the Shiites and went on a counterattack, the largest air force base was repulsed, Adena airport was repulsed, and then completely occupied by the Saudi Military, which immediately S-130 sits down, the port is repulsed and cleaned up, the city is actually repulsed. BMP-3, Leclerc ARV, TOU, various weighted riflemen and uniforms suddenly appeared in the landed men. Plus slippers for extras.

        I wonder what kind of landing landed in Aden? Well equipped. There are black and white fighters. Is it not American PMCs any?

          BMPhi from the UAE - 100% - the places where the tactical mark and number are applied exactly in the UAE (in Kuwait is a different scheme) + they are modernized according to the OMS and the Braling, but this is not the case in Kuwait.

          Leclerc BREM or UAE or CA.

          The airport has an officially limited contingent of SA for organizing humanitarian assistance to the population of Aden.

    Six days ago, Turkish bombing was considered a strike against Ishil. Now there is no need to mask something even with words.

    What is this, for nonsense: The act of terrorism was committed by the IG, and the Kurds took responsibility? Who is this for?
