In any case, Abbas cannot win popular vote even in even the west bank that is why there is no election in Palestine since Abbas completed his term couple of years back. After regime change in Egypt and recent high level diplomatic visits in Gaza strip, has certainly improved the diplomatic...
I do not think that Iran is advance stage of building the nuclear weapons and "IF" Iran is able to build nuclear weapons then their will be at least 3 more countries in the region ready to assume nuclear power in no time.
And Turkey possesses the strongest navy in that part of Mediterranean sea and that is the main reason, Turkey is going too fast in building, buying and commissioning the Naval platforms.
I didn’t say that Al-Sadr & Al-Maliki are allies if you read it again then you will find that i said that they both are Iranian allies. I am fully aware about the rivalry and swat sharing, sadr’s Mahdinte revolution etc.
Yes Turkey fully backed the Allawi led block of Al-Iraqiya and...
To be precise there are 141 Sunni law makers (including ethnic Kurds & Turkmen) in Iraqi parliament out of 325 now you can adjudicate yourself the overall population of Sunnis in Iraq.
In my view Iraq itself is an artificial state like the Levantine states of bathist Syria, Lebanon, Jordan...
Turkish Alevis/bektashis have basic belief in Emamat but there practices are not similar to Ithna Ashari Shiets of Iran. there place of worship is called cemvi/tekke where they dance and recite chants to praise there deities. If these Alevis are the citizen of present day Iran, I am sure they...
For Iran having something to defend itself is more important than working on technology demonstration. Still its an achievement for a country living in Technology denial sanctions from decades. No comparison with Turkey as Turkish arms industry is in different league, they are focusing on...

your point are well taken and well respected but sane and wishful thinking can not alter the ground realities and Middle East is going through a correction phase and it needs to be restructured according to the natural flow of regional paradigm. AS you know the current boundaries of the region...
Thanks mate,
yes you are right, Turkish Affairs to be precise. After indulging it turned out to be a love affair with Turkish history, culture, religion, and socio-politico-economic affairs.:)
The fantastic debate needs to be enriched by Iranian Azeri Turks, Mod should not allow the lurkers to derail the wonderful thread and its universal truth the people of Azerbaijan are oghuz Turks. Azerbiijain people are the only Turkic people who call themselves Turks instead of other central...
TUSAID is not as influential in today's Turkey as it used to be before. Its outgoing head Umit Boyner tried her level best to pressure the Government to sign IMF loan deal in 2009 but government first delayed and later rejected it flatly and came out well from economic crisis.
TUSAID is...
Yes, i am well aware of public spending proposed in the current budget and previous years too. What i said that due to many visible reason the discontent in Kingdom is not of the resemblance of other MENA countries, Iran has influence on its Ithna Ashari brethern in Qatif region only and some...
After all these happening on the Turkish borders and beyond the decision on T-Loramids seems to be more political one rathe than technical in nature. Keeping this in mind the consortium of American firms Raytheon and L M, with Patriot system are the front runner.
