Turkey, a NATO member-state, has launched an invasion of Iraq. Not a word from NATO and EU representatives who have been screaming about Ukraine for the past two months.

Turkey has actually had some sanctions placed on it by some Western countries in the somewhat recent past, but then again they are a muslim non-white country so it’s not totally surprising they are treated as the black sheep within NATO.

The title is very misleading. Fuck Erdoğan, but this it’s not trying to take over Iraq. They’re killing Kurdish separatists with Iraq’s permission (which is also bad).

hmmmm, but I will concede a bit, it seems to be a military operation like putin’s, and the kurds have been a pain in the ass. Turkey is getting bolder though, fuck them

Can’t imagine the Kurds will be so helpful next time America needs them to do their cleaning up.
