Yeah, I know. A third worlder with nukes, its even more frighthening, huh? (1)
But it is not that recently I think, since I remember that Turkish-American
relations gone bad (late 80s?) because we were selling electronical equipment
to Pakistan to be used in having nuclear capabilty. We had a brotherhood like
relation with Pakistan started in early 80s since both leaders of date from our
country and Pakistan was feeling eachother very close, most probably both being
militaristic dictators who came to rule by a military interruption..:-) I don't
know the recent affairs, but I think this relation still continues. So do not
fear for Turkey, fear for yourself..:-D
Actually, when I were still a rocket engineer (in 1996) they only had missiles
around 500km range. Is it changed now? Additionally, their most potent enemy,
India were much more capable as having missiles having the capability to launch
satellites. Besides, Iran had the similar (with Pakistan) capability about
missiles and had a very close technical relationship with North Korea. They are
closer to Europe (and Turkey) and much more fundementalist..:-)
By the way, you still continue being a pretty well third worlder, independent
from you have the nukes or not. And if you are a sucking third worlder, you
start even sucking more after spending this much money to such vital things(?)
like nuclear weapons. I laughed hard when I read last year in a newspaper that
our navy wanted a carrier. What the heck is they dreaming to do with it is out
of my imagination, but I really really know very well how they could afford
it...:-((

(1) As being just another third worlder, Turkey is one of the biggest nuclear
weapon storages of the world but fortunately (for the rest of the world..:-)
they are not under control of us, but under control of US..:-)
