NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

Oh.
I thought Erdogan was just shitposting about holding up Swedish membership because they can burn Korans, and he really wanted money.
Turkey had an election a few month ago, and Erdogan is in the "Turkey Stronk" party. So they have to look like they're "coming down" on Sweden for bonus points. Now that he's been re-elected, he can stop burning what little international goodwill Turkey has left.
Also, he got a massive bribe for this.
he wanted F35s but as long as they have S400s it's a no go
what he did get is some extra F16s and upgrade package for what F16s they have
and probably a massive bribe
Also stupid, he was never going to get f35s and everyone around him has them.
Should have played it cooler, taken the f35s, s400s do him no good against anyone he's pissed at, he should have known it then, it's proven beyond a shadow of a doubt now.
At this point I don't understand why he doesn't just offer to ship his s400 to Nevada in exchange for F35s, since the platform is very clearly little more than strongman bait. I guess that would require him to admit he got duped.
I can just imagine a whole state of the art SAM system disappearing into Nellis, never to be seen now heard again.
Biden promised him first dibs on Mar-a-Lago
