Only islands Turkey have in Agean are Gökçeada and Bozcaada those who do not know may google 'em.

Cyprus included right ?

How does it mention 152 islands , rocks , islets , cays or lagoons being disputed in the Aegean in the article ? That is very different from what I have heard ...

Cyprus is located in mediterranean sea, and disputes on Agean are more than territorial. There are some reaaal big issues.

Greeks are deluded, pretty much like China. They think they have rights over everywhere they've had 2500 years ago. This mentality is going to have to change sometime. They do not own Agean.

But in Agean there are also some problems. Greece claims whole sea because they have stolen some Islands during WW1. I think this issue can only solven with cases-belli. They either stand down or we stand on them.
 
I don't think violence is an option. It'd just prove them right.

This should be solved through diplomacy, they are having real hard times i think we should lend a hand.. as a sign of good will. Something to show them that their expansionist and hostile Agean policy is misguided. Nothing good can come of it.

Like how they insist on 12nm territorial waters.. what economic gain can it bring to Greece? nothing except annoying Turkey. It just makes no sense

Making sense or not, it is Greece's right to do so. We had this conversation a long time ago. That is not the point.

Greek governments have established long ago that if Turkey feels threatened by a 12 mile possible move, it should agree to a middle line policy; something that actually is already quite generous since Greece doesn't have to do.

Agreed Turkey hasn't signed the treaty that gives Greece the right to 12 miles. But because one doesn't participate to a treaty signed by a considerable amount of countries, doesn't automatically make them right.

nationalistic crap aside, simply by looking the facts, one must examine all sides equally.

that doesn't count. For that matter if half of that world signed that Treaty , Turkey didn't!!

If you are so keen on treaties we can start a war about the dispute , Turkey can occupy Athens and force you to sign a treaty. There you will have your treaty.

I find Greece stance very pathetic. They backstab the Turks and steal chunk of our territory and deport muslim people out of Balkans and now they expect Turkey to play on the tune Greece wants. No we play on our tune. If you don't like it we will go to war.

Most of what you just wrote is non sense. You are drowning in your own nationalistic militaristic wet dreams of days long past conquests.

Greece was a key NATO country, forced by NATO to maintain a certain standard of military power, even nuclear at some point (same as Turkey). If you believe that a confrontation between Greece and Turkey will be painless for Turkey and a walk in the park not only are you dreaming but you are very dangerous too.

Greek armed forces have come on top on most single NATO/ US common exercise ,most of the times voted there even by your fellow countrymen service men participating in the common exercises. That level of quality in training and capability will not cause a terrible toll on any side trying to pick on us?

Even the famous Israeli air force and special forces have been handed their nuts in a plate recently.. don't be naive.


perhaps you are willing to see a tens of thousands of your fellow countrymen dying trying to serve your wet dream.

But I am not. And I bet others -turkish and not- aren't !

grow up.. these are not games.

I' m not expansionist, you are! Greece claims whole Aegean sea for itself!

In case of war, We won't loose 10 000's of men. This is 21th century. We have armored vehicles, tanks, long-range missiles, superiour jets. What do Greeks have? Greek army nowadays has shrinked because of austerity. You can't match us in any aspect.

And who says we need to invade Greece? With our navy, long-range missiles and air superiority we can reach every square inch in Greece. Not to mention new projects of us. 1000 altay, **** load of helicopters, UAV's, stealth ships and jets coming soon.

What can Greeks do against that? Be honest.

What I'm trying to say, sooner or later Greece will need to back down. Greece has fooled himself they can compete with the big guys and we can see the result today. Greek people are starving in the streets.

I suggest Greece to stop its expansionist policy. Give up west-Thrace, half of Agean sea/islands and start being friendly to Turkey and its neighbors so Greece can self-sustain and feed its people.

Sorry to burst your bubble but your stupidity has no limits..We have tanks, we have APCS, we have missiles etc etc..What is this? How old are you? 8?
And your accusation of Greece being expansionist after asking Greece to give West Thrace to Turkey is rather funny...Go play with your playstation and crush your tanks, missiles there or start to use your brain ASAP..

You are expansionist because you claim whole of Aegean sea. You should go an play PS3 or what ever you play.

If Greece persist you will be the one who looses!

We can destroy your tanks, APCS, other military installations with 24 hours once Turkish spy satellite starts its job. Greece won't be able to stop air, navy and land invasion. It is not even necessary to invade Greece. Because Greece is fully exposed to sea and doesn't have hinterland to retreat to our stealth ships and long-range missile can hit you without Greece being able to hit back.

Answer this? Which field is Greece army superior to Turkish army? The answer is: none!

So, what about Greek irredentism in Aegean then? When Italians left Aegean, they should give islands to Turkey which was the rightful owner of the Aegean Islands. These islands were TURKISH for God's sake, TURKEY was the legal owner of them. Greeks seized it unofficially.
Never forget what happened to West Thracians. Believe it or not, Turks were the majority in West Thrace back then. What about now?

And you think asking West Thrace from a Greek civilian on the internet is the right way to get it back? or is it rather pointless? Which one mate?

Diayou Island is Chinese territory. Maped by the Ming Dynasty's cabniet records and stolen by Japs during 1895. BTW are you fond of General Marius and his military reforms for the Roman legion (Judging by your profile pic).
