The Turkish precedent

...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
in July. One is that Turkey can’t be trusted as a Western ally. The second is that the US president’s foreign policy, if he has any at all, is crumbling. World leaders don’t take Donald Trump

#4  Unless the S-400 in the hands of Turks is significantly different from the S-300 in the hands of Syrians, the Israelis have nothing to fear from it.
