RE: Turkish forces use toxic gas on the Kurds!
You seem to be laboring under the mistaken presumption that our politicians are altruistic people who act out of the kindness of their hearts. The exact opposite is true. No other career attracts psychopaths in numbers that great. Turkey is a strategic partner in the destabilization effort I mean spreading freedom and democracy of course.
I agree. Have you read my posts? I'm not exactly one to ride Uncle Sam's jock. Governments are inherently evil and it will act to further government interests if it is permitted. Our country was founded by individuals that knew this fact, and America was an attempt to form a government but to keep it in shackles, and limited in its scope. What is puzzling about my original post regarding Turkey, is that Governments are about self preservation, and it threatens their relevance, when they come off as blatantly hypocritical, not that they aren't capable of hypocrisy, but they try to avoid it at all costs. For an international community that says they are against the use of chemical weapons, it is odd to that we have not seen distancing from the Turks, or an attempt to spin. I don't know, maybe that's the reason why the story has not hit any major news outlets.
