While its true that the term of "Azerbijani" or "Azeri" was artificially created by the Soviets and Iran to destinguish Turks form the Anatolian Turks, there is some legitimacy in them having their own somewhat semi-seperate identity. I personally prefer to called them Azerbaijani Turks. They...
So? Afghans are also Indo-European people and really i dont want to sound racist or rude here but they arent really known for being progressive and science.
If this is really they gonna to met with a barrage of artillery, mortars, missiles and rockets. They wouldnt dare, if they did we would just steamroll to Manbij.
Just to seal the deal we should also take the towns and cities thr Afrin YPG took when the Aleppo corridor was closed and the Azaz canton was continiously under attack by ISIS. Cities such as Minaq, Shaykh Isa and Tal Rifat. Those areas are mainly Arab/Turkmen anyway, the rest are solely Kurdish...
The term "Byzantines" is artificial in nature. They people called themselfs Romans and the empire was known as the Roman empire. The term "Byzantine" was invented by scholars in the 18th century to distinguish the Eastern Roman Empire from the western part. In other words you cant be...
Pretty much yeah. You realize building a reliable and durable jet engine isnt something that can be done by simply displaying a prototype to the public. These things needs many years to mature and considering the poor state of Iran's air force there are simply urgent requirements that need to be...
We dont. Any member that insults or talk lesser of Turkish Kurds are automatically warned and the posts are deleted. The moderator of this section @cabatli_53 takes it very seriously. Dont confuse the posts involving PKK with Kurds please. Most Kurds are loyal citizens that deserve the same...
I know but come on this is just hilarious. This was something even keyboard warriors like us could see from miles away. The fact that the SDF/YPG stopped marching south into Raqqa the ISIS capital(litteraly a couple miles away) but instead attempted to link the Afrin Kurdish canton showed that...
HAHAHAHAHAH!
Liwa Al-Tahrir, Hazm movement, Jabhat Tuwar Syria and Jabhat Al-Haq just announced that they joined Operation Euphrates Shield. I dont know if this was posted before but 4 rebel factions within the SDF just defected to the Turkish side and have already captured several YPG...
The Turkish state has officialy confirmed 2 destroyed tanks but ISIS claims 3 more tanks being destroyed. This is likely fake as they generally film it for propaganda purposes and no video was published.
They pushed back and captured some villages in the Azaz canton near the Turkish border.
I would say Algeria. Most countries on this list's armed forces are either an extremely small elite force with the latests gadgets and goodies or extremely underfunded relativly big force with some modern toys here and there. I feel like Algeria is a nice balance of these two catagories and...
