Turkey is not supportive of Finland joining NATO

https://www.reuters.com/world/erdogan-says-turkey-not-positive-finland-sweden-joining-nato-2022-05-13/

“President Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday it was not possible for NATO-member Turkey to support plans by Sweden and Finland to join the pact, saying the Nordic countries were "home to many terrorist organisations".

Though Turkey has officially supported enlargement since it joined NATO 70 years ago, its opposition could pose a problem for Sweden and Finland given new members need unanimous agreement.”

I don't recall any Rico charges/arrests in the past few years at least. This should end up "Big News", correct?

Wonder if he's actually opposed or just wants a bribe before allowing it.

Absolutely, depending on how it all shakes out it could be a trial of the century type case. They're coming at Young Thug with a whole slew of charges and it will be interesting to see what they have beyond lyrics / social media / etc to prove their case.

Did they actually figure out who shot who? I’ll admit I haven’t been following it (or honestly care too much about I/P issues), but I recall a news report pop up saying that the PA wouldn’t turn over the bullet. Granted I have no clue of the validity, just something I saw yesterday, so I’m just looking for clarification one way or the other.

Given that IDF has shot people in the past without warranting it, I suspect its their doing.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health that conducted the autopsy and stated the bullet is Israeli refused to turn it over to the Israelis who were asking for it. Why would Palestine not comply with Israel's request in investigation after Israel released footage of what they said was the fight where she was killed that was rapidly geolocated to be miles away from where they died? (paraphrasing NPR report from Wednesday afternoon)

If a hit went down and witnesses said they saw a mafia hitman do it, would you turn the physical evidence you have over to the local Don? What if he insists really hard his guys didn't do it, and says that he's got security camera footage from a few towns over of someone else who maybe also owned a gun?

I hadn't heard that she was killed by christian pretribulationist premillenialists. That should make Israel happy, yet they're still putting out cop poo poo like this:

quote:

An Israeli military interim report on Thursday said the fatal shot could have come from "massive fire from Palestinian gunmen", or possibly from "a few bullets" fired by a soldier "at a terrorist who was firing at his vehicle".

He's basing his upset-ness on the long Kurdish presence we have. I can't really speak for the details in Finland but Sweden was one of the places that took in Kurdish refugees from you-know-what and subsequently is one of the places where the Kurdish diaspora naturally "organises", aka exists.

This is the long way of saying, yes, he wants a bribe. Again. It's Erdogan, whenever he mentions Europe it's because he's trying to squeeze someones balls - and most if the time it works.

Body bombs were a lot of effort for not much reward compared to someone just wearing a burqa or, uhh, whatever the flowing, loose outfit for out in the desert was called, then loading ten pounds of TNT around your waist.

Now a dead animal on the side of the road? Yeah that thing was probably hollowed out and waiting to go boom.
