You mean paper tiger?
lol whenever i see Turkish related post you are there. What makes you so uncomfortable ?
i am not sure even if you are Pakistani.
If u want to gain popularity among the Arabs u should curse USA and Israel. Thats what Ahmadinejad is doing. Erdogan did not grow balls for USA yet, so he curses only Israel.
Why is Mr Erdogan so eager to defend these Arabs who give two hoots about Turkey? Has he forgotten that the Arabs betrayed the Turks in the past? He'll end up making more enemies for his nation rather than friends.
agreed
I really don't understand Turkey's new policies to be honest.
What can Turkey gain by getting closer to the arabs? They are useless in every way.
Popularity and Warm policies/expressions adressing the benefits of Arabs creates influences in regions. Influences bring more money with trades and strategic agreements. More money means more R&D, wealth and respectability in G-20. More R&D mean strong defence/civilian industry that will make a country to control/arm the countries being under your influence. Those are like a chain reaction...
if Turkey wants influence then Central Asia is a good place to start from. Erdogan is making israel its adversary for the sake of Arab support, its not worth it. In time of war these same Arabs won't fire even a single bullet on behalf of Turkey. However they will try to spread extremist ideology into Turkey and thats all they can offer.
We are taking about more than 300 million Arab population. Think most of those population making trade and ordering defence systems from Turkey. I think It makes sense for us.
If You follows the Turkish agenda, You would see that Some influences have been created in Central Asian Turkic republics as well. Turkish defence industry signed lots of defence agreement with Khazakistan, Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan worth hundreds of million $ Those countries can easily purchase similar systems from Russia but They changed their courses towards Turkey...
Besides, Who said that Turkey will go to a war cause of protecting Arab benefits ? It is impossible. The Expressions Turkish PM composed are serving for some clever purposes in Arab population.
I wonder how direct the connection, could not those prurchases be because Turkey has a fine defence industry producing excellent equipment at a resonable cost with a reputation for reliability?
After all arab countries buy large amounts of hardware from the US without any statments against Israel.
So if someone questions a Turk and doesn't talk highly of them, he is not a Pakistani. When will you guys learn freedom of speech? Come on...not for nothing but I don;t think the Turkish Army is very capable. I mean they can't take out the Kurds? The Sri Lankans defeated the LTTE who are much more potent force. Granted it took 3 decades but is as long as this Kurdish conflict.

They do make statements against Israel, although they are not making through the headlines as these statements coming from them, are expected. When un-expected country, especially Turkey, makes this kind of criticism, it just pops out among others. Castro made some positive remarks about Israel just last week, and got a thank you letter from Perez and it made a lot of fuzz in media.I wonder how direct the connection, could not those prurchases be because Turkey has a fine defence industry producing excellent equipment at a resonable cost with a reputation for reliability?

Very well put. Turkey is not just gaining influence over Arab countries, it also exports its governmental system. I believe Saudia Arabia is the most nervous among other Arab states for Turkey's new rising power in the region. After all, they have a monarchy to protect..Besides, I think Arab leaders do not like/support What Turkey is doing in ME because This policy is also threatening their comfortable places in their countries.
