    I have no doubt that if Trump strikes Kim Jong Un will launch a nuclear strike against South Korea... millions of people are at risk. I think we need to try and resolve this without nuclear weapons, if there'a any chance at all for a diplomatic solution it should be given priority.

    And yet the US provided weapons to the Taliban for use against Soviet-backed forces in Afghanistan.

    Funny how everything gets a return.

    If this is true, I would IMMEDIATELY begin handing all anti-assad forces, including ISIS and al qaeda in syria, stinger and other shoulder-fired missiles to take out all assad and russian air forces there. I'd also provide them with anti-tank rockets and sniper rifles as well. This is an outrage, if true.

    And what exactly should we say to the Russians "I know we were supporting the Taliban when you guys were fighting them but, two wrongs do not make a right" ?

    If Kim Jong Un is not a threat, why is the US "sending an Armada" and threatening him militarily? All just for show? Why worry about him if the US can take him out so easily.

    It is because he is a threat that is why we are having this conversation in the first place... it would be a hell of a risk to take... betting against him not launching a nuclear strike and 100% on Thaad for incase he does.

    Kim Jong can became a threat in the nearly future, thats why he must be stopped new . Muscovy supports North Korea much like all dictators because its is just Nigeria in snow , it can only destabilize , it can not bring stability , and prosperity like USA can. they need Kim Jong with nukes , and rockets in order to keep Japan , SK, Australia and USA busy. Fuc& Kim, save souls if 25 millions people ...Look i am from east-europe , i know what they think, they are bluffers

    So? Demanding Black sea entry violations means US/UK saved us from Russian invasion? Inonu was the president of Turkiye and he knew Stalin's rhetorics were just response to the illegal demands of the west through straits. Even Hitler didnt think bombing our shores just few miles away from Greece while he definitely could. We were neutral dude. West wanted us to be satellite and they managed to do it. Thats all.

    The perception of threat is different. Deep state seems it has taken the wheel (Trump) after 3 months of struggle. Deep state USA is globalist unlike the Turkish. North Korea is a closed society, Iran too. Globalists are for open societies, open economies and open borders to infiltrate states to take control of them in much easier and "legit" ways. Pushing for opennes is the only solution to fullfill their one world agenda. Thats why Kim and Iran are threats to the globalists and therefore to the deep state USA. Stabilty is the biggest lie ever told. Whenever you hear that word make sure you read it reverse in meaning; instability, as Afghanistan and the entire middle east are speaking for themselves.

    Litwo you make me laugh man. We were NEUTRAL in WW2. Never been an ally to Hitler. WWI? Yes but no Hitler, to Germany. That's why despite having won in all battles at all fronts we were forced to comply with measures put before us as being on the losing side. Sevres was dictated and the German lover stupid ass Sultan signed it. Ataturk rejected it and organized the worn out nation to fight against it. Then as you know we kicked British French Italian and poor Greek out of our homeland, established Republic of Turkiye and by great diplomatic moves made the entire world to recognize it. The anti imperialist stance you see from me is not baseless. :)

    As for the Russian press after the SU-24 incident:

    To me that was all "smart". Why? Because Russia has seen what cliques were behind the attack and what they were trying to get Russia to do. Russian strategists didn't fall into the trap. Instead, they turned the entire situation into their advantage by spreading ""dark propaganda"" in the most serious international political platforms against that clique. Some key bureaucrats in Turkish government were in target of the propaganda, leaving the US no choice but stay neutral, although the US was backing those bureaucrats. Otherwise, with the evidences provided by the Russians, the US government would have been finding itself defending a wrong doing. By such smart soft power implementation Russia managed to hit many birds with one stone: Uncovered the globalist clique, had Turkish government come to its terms, paralyzed the US influence within the country, and most importantly "won Turkish patriots" for good.

    Thank you Russia :)
