Islamic supremacist Turkey is experiencing a windfall these days. From bullying Greece, playing “middle man” between Russia and the EU in supplying Russian oil, deepening relations with Putin while supplying weapons to Ukraine, Turkey’s influence is expanding rapidly. Now it’s making demands on Finland and Sweden as a condition to join NATO, to suit the interests of Erdogan.
Turkey has no place in NATO. NATO members (as well as more suitable potential members) are now paying a dear price for the imprudence of allowing Turkey to continue to be a NATO member. Turkey has increasingly become more Islamized under Erdogan, much more than it was in 1952, when it joined NATO. In the “years following World War II, Turkey found itself in a unique geopolitical position,” siding with the Western free world when it was “desperate for protection.”
So it joined NATO. It has now become clear how short-sighted it was to embrace this Muslim country with its Ottoman history.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham promised to “introduce bipartisan sanctions against Turkey if they invade Syria” and to “call for their suspension from NATO if they attack Kurdish forces who assisted the U.S. in the destruction of the ISIS Caliphate.”
Turkey is now accusing Sweden and Finland of providing a safe haven for what Erdogan calls Kurdish “terrorists.” So he’s ordering the two counties to turn over Kurds and “share information.” Although there will be a price to pay for throwing Turkey out of NATO now, there will ultimately be a much higher price for allowing this Islamic despot to continue to manipulate NATO.
“Turkey warns Finland, Sweden must ‘take steps’ before joining NATO,” France 24, November 4, 2022:
Turkey will not formally approve Finland and Sweden’s membership of NATO until the two countries take the necessary “steps”, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told alliance chief Jens Stoltenberg Friday.
Ankara has accused the two Nordic nations of providing a safe haven for outlawed Kurdish militants it deems “terrorists” and held back on ratifying their NATO membership despite an agreement in June.
“President Erdogan noted that the steps to be taken by Sweden and Finland would determine how fast the approval process… would go and when it would be concluded,” the Turkish presidency said.
Erdogan and Stoltenberg held a private meeting in Istanbul that was closed to the media.
Finland and Sweden dropped decades of military non-alignment and scrambled to become NATO members in May, after Russia invaded Ukraine.
But Erdogan threatened to block their bids and sought concessions, leading to a deal in June between Turkey, Finland and Sweden that included provisions on extraditions and sharing information.
New Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson will visit Ankara on Tuesday to meet with Erdogan in a trip that Stockholm hopes will lead to Turkey’s approval.
Stoltenberg “welcomed the major, concrete steps already taken by both countries to put the memorandum into practice, and stressed that their accession will make NATO stronger”, the alliance said in a statement on Friday….

No fan of Erdogan, but that’s what you get (Sweden) when you busy yourself with countries you have nothing to do with. In this case Muslim tribesmen and clans of all sorts in the Middle East. Then import millions of Muslim tribesmen and clans into your country and think you have now saved the planet.
The result is that your country now imported and added all sorts of Muslim internal problems like Kurds vs Turks, Palestinian vs Israel, Sunni vs Shia, Arabs vs Persians, et al. and made it yours. Your politicians showboat and stick their noses into all sorts of countries like Kosovo, Yugoslavia and countries thousands of miles away like Afghanistan at the expense of your citizens. Do you feel lucky now Scandinavia?

I saw a report recently that there are ex ISIS members living in Turkey and unmolested by the govt. they are also reported to have their Yazidi slaves with them. Perhap Erdogan should look into that before he accuses Sweden and Finland of ‘harbouring’ terrorists

At the same time Erdogan demands that Finland and Sweden arrest and extradite the Kurds he hates, he himself hosts Hamas in Turkiye and protects ISIS in Idlib, Syria. Erdogan’s policy could not be more clear, and it will clearly be a disaster to capitulate to him.

That photo of the wanna be caliph is fitting.
Erdogan is a devil indeed.

I agree with your article 100%. Turkey does not belong in NATO. NATO should adopt its charter to protect its members from Muslim countries and Muslim invaders (immigrants). Don’t give me any BS that Turkey cannot be removed from NATO. The founding members should take a vote to see if they want Turkey to remain in NATO.

The problem is that Turkey will go straight into alliance with Russia. I understand there are NATO military assets in Turkey including nuclear weapons.
They would be taken by Russia or used by Russia and they would support Turkey on its agression towards Greece.
