TURKEY SHOULD NO LONGER BE A NATO MEMBER

Whan Turkey was admitted into NATO, it pretended to be a secular country. Turkey is comprised mostly of Moslems, a few Christians and Jewish people. However, over the years, Turkey has shed its skin and finally shown its hand, as in a game of poker. Turkey is an Islamist country, but aside from this, it is a jihadist country aligned with the jidadist countries in the area as Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia. All the countries in NATO are secular countries.

When Pres. Bush asked for landing rights in Turkey, in order to attack Iraq, Turkey refused. From this point on, Turkey has exploded with jihadists. NATO does not need a jihadist country in its midst. Turkey, by a vote of a majority of members, should be dismissed from NATO alliance. Turkey's alliance is now with Iran. Iran is our enemy. Therefore, if this was an equation, Turkey should not be a member of NATO and should be in the same terrorist membership of Iran. Iran sponsors terrorism throughout the Middle East and throughtout the world. It sponsors Hezbollah, Hamas, and supports Al Qaeda.

Therefore Turkey = Iran. Turkey deliberately sent this ship into the Mediterranean waters to provoke a confrontation with holligans on the boat armed with pipes, clubs, bats, broken bottles, and yes guns. Two Israeli commandos were shot by the thugs on board the Turkish ship. Turkey is no longer on the side of democratic countries, and therefore, should be dismissed from NATO. Turkey killed 1,500,000 Armenians and has held the Kurds hostage for many years. It is now part of the terrorism network. Dismiss Turkey from NATO alliance.
