they are all really, really stupid
like most boomers
it's not pirates, nor is it an international coalition to slap them for disrupting international shipping channels
we're doing it because they're friends with Iran (sorta), but really because they're one of the only semi-major arab state we don't control and haven't bombed into a pile of rubble
We control Jordan and Egypt
We ruined Libya, Tunesia, Sudan, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq
Gulf states, Oman, and Saudia Arabia are friendly
Iran and Turkey are complete messes
Turkey is in full civil war mode rn
unirronically
their country will likely collapse this year
nah, though Armenia fell as well last year
yeah, always a mess
Their president (Erdogan) arrested his political opponent
and he was already kinda in a weak position
because their economy is "everything is fucked" levels of bad
completely unrelated
no one's mentioned this
but for some reason we arrested and kidnapped the shadow president of The Philippines
I don't think they even told Trump they were doing it
well, he was president, then was term limited so he put his daughter in charge
and he was going to run again next election (which is allowable)
this is Duterte

yep, which is why it's so insane that he's been blackbagged
I mean, it's pretty clear it happened
he posted logs
what are they claiming now, we all imagined it?
I think they should have just claimed it was 5D chess, to intimidate Yemen
I like that this is just the hillary email thing though, so they have to cope extra hard
well, its worse
because they are retarded and added the guy by accident
The ploy should be that if autopen does not count for government documents, typing in a text chat does not count as communication
therefore, no fowl play occured
I think they should just do their political talk in this channel
spooky use your connections to get them to join the server

speaking of southeast asia and also protests, this keeps on growing from what i am hearing https://apnews.com/article/indonesia-parliament-new-military-law-99950f862d738e07cdb1586ccb08adbe
and on the turkey thing, they wont collaps, erdgon is in peak western state popularity due to his handling of the recent couping or syria, and he knows the socdem mayor guy will win, so he is just doing what turkey does, jail opposition, opposition wins election, power will transfer to some other dude then to him once he is out of prison
issue with color revolutions is you have to deescalate them carefully once the government topples
if they just put their prefered candidate in power, then it's fine
issue is how BAD off turkey is rn, that will not actually fix anything so there's going to be bottled up pressure to go further and dismantle everything
and if that splinter happens before they throw Erdgon out, then he might just opt to rally the military and stay in power
Was this a huge mistake
No... it was a mistake though
