Daily Hurriyet News: Turkey to crush ‘terror army’ to be set up by US in Syria: Erdoğan

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Jan. 15 threatened to thwart the creation of a U.S-backed 30,000-strong border security force manned mostly by the People’s Protection Units (YPG) in northern Syria.

Turkey’s armed forces completed preparations for an operation against the YPG in their strongholds Afrin, in northwestern Syria, and Manbij, in northern Syria, Erdoğan said on Jan. 15 at an opening ceremony in Ankara.

At first I thought Erdogan is just an idiot...now I realize he's just really,really funny ...destroy US forces lol does he realise he is just a hair thickness away from getting kicked out of nato and getting sanctioned? Sure. .Russia would love it. But so would we. Win win for everyone. Plus the upside is the young turks will kill him if he continues to f*ck up Turkey's future. Look at the unemployment rate. ..I'll be at home watching him get killed just like gaddafi..right between the commercial breaks. No one gives a f*ck about what happens to him. Would not be surprised if he doesn't get to see 2020 lol he almost got wacked just a year ago by his own people..tells you a lot

The thing is. ..being shown on live TV at the super bowl for just a second is worth more than 100kg gold. Of course everyone will kneel. Are they retarded at the NFL?

Meant to say poverty rate.

"people with a monthly income of less than a third of the minimum monthly wage — less than 316 lira ($118) — are considered poor. According to the TURK-IS criteria, nearly 50% of Turkey's population is at the poverty line, while the latest TUIK survey puts the figure at 22.4%."

He's not talking about engaging u.s forces, everyone has learnt over the last 2 years that you can bomb the crap out of proxies without fear of retaliation from the u.s.
