#1 *snicker* Erdogan thought he was so big and clever when he attempted to sabatoge our efforts in the war. Feeling pretty good about that now, are you, Yappy?

Now he again tries to make himself the big man by joining with two countries that are weak, despotic, ripe for civil war and on a steep downhill slide. Good thinking. Erdogan's a terrible leader and a loser. Turkey has done nothing but slide backwards from the modern world since he was elected. I predict it won't be long before the Turks tire of him and realize he is the source of all of their problems. Good riddance.
