Turkey should be kicked out of NATO.
Did you know they are the only nationality that was strictly prohibited from partying and drinking on NATO deployments in the Balkans, while the rest of us most definitely "got down" after a hard days/nights' work at our camps' international pubs?
Their commanders and NCOs treated those poor sops as if they were still in boot camp. And no, it was not because of their conscription status because the Greeks are also conscripts and had no such restrictions placed upon them.
They do not share our secular values and love of fine wine and therefore should never be trusted. Atatürk is rolling over in his grave.
Sorry.
First-hand experience here actually having served in NATO for a little over 3 years.
And not just something I've read in the papers and in textbooks.
