#1 Interesting pallor in that photo and his mouth is resembling a fish gasping. Is Erogdan in a hospice program yet?

#2 This reminds me of Kissinger's comment about the Iran-Iraq war: "It's a shame they can't both loose."

#3 I dunno.

I sort of agree with Recep.

#4 This guy has been pushing for an Islamic flavored dicatorship ever since he took office. A "Caliphate". Hmm, who else is trying to do that in the old Ottoman Empire territories...

#5 Funny inline comment on the Ottoman Empire. I pity that poor Empire. Nobody new squat about oil back then so they got no real benefits out of keeping a lid on the madhouse.
