#2 You beat me to it newc, why is this half ass dictator getting so much news the last couple years? In my opinion Turkey is a 3rd rate country at best.

#4 OTOH, if the UN goes for it, that would give Trump a reason defund the UN.

Either Erdogan looks like a turkey for proposing the ridiculous or a ridiculous UN gets defunded. That's a Win either way.

#5 I really liked Turkey until "My Pracious" took it over.
It's like Mommy Dearest on the world stage.

#6 If the UN General Assembly votes for it, nothing can happen. The general assembly has no power, so Turkey will look foolish for doing so.

If it goes to the Security Council, America can veto as a permanent member. So nothing will happen, and Turkey will look impotent for doing so.

Yet another temper tantrum by the wannabe sultan whose ISIS tool has just been broken.
