Linus Torvalds figured out what to do with them.Turk Telekom is Europe's 5th largest telecommunication company.

I think, they have the know-how to implement fiber-optic lines in the Middle-East for data-integration of the involved countries.
LOL, big fucking deal.
Israel invented the Pentium and Centrino microprocessors for Intel that power most computers in the world.
Where wuz allah when Intel needed him?
Look.. The point is if Turkey continues to go down the islamist road they'll be finished,. Unless of course the military reasserts its power before the radicals gain control of the government. Either way there is NO certainty on Turkeys future right now, You can post all you're glowing stats if you want but the reality is future is uncertain for that country
You are lying to yourself.
There was world-wide economic crisis, yet, economy performs with highest growth within G-20 behind China. Given this fact, there are no uncertainties.
Economy and population will grow.
Tax-collection and government-budget will continue to rise.
Debt-to-GDP ratio will continue to sink.
Turkey has cultural and historic ties to all the places Turkey disconnected with in 1918. Nothing unnatural about Turkey showing interest in the developments of these regions (see common-market in 1st post).
What was abnormal was the absence of this interest for decades, partly due to economic impotence and being jailed into Cold-War by Superpowers.
In 1918, Turkey was an agricultural country of 19 millions having to form a nation-state out of rest-population of a multinational Caliph-Confederation who relocated or were forced out of their homelands into Anatolia.
Today, we are world's 16th largest (15th PPP) industrial country of 75 millions, which is on a healthy and sustainable growth-path aiming to become 10th largest in 2023, when the Republic turns 100 years old.
Now, we need yearly growth of 8.2% to achieve that aim. if we achieve it in 2023 or 2026 is not that really important, because besides Russia there is no power in West-Asia to over-power Turkey in capabilities. How that capabilities are used is again a total different subject, but the capabilities are and will increasingly be exerted outwards of the Turkish borders. Why? Because we simply can.
What the Generals or Politicians do in Ankara regarding domestic-politics is not going to change anything to the fact, that economic size allows Turkey to become more independent and by that focussed on self-interests.
All those mindsets like you or Marc39 know it also. Preaching uncertainty won't bring uncertainty or a power to contain Turkey.
If you build Intel chip or have won 6 nobels does also not change the fact, that countries in Turkey's periphery have all smaller economies and a smaller industrial base.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/11/opinion/11iht-edbildt11.html?_r=1Turkey is in a class of its own. It is an influential actor on the world stage with considerable soft power. Its economy is expected to expand by more than 5 percent this year, compared with a eurozone average of 1 percent. The O.E.C.D. predicts that Turkey will be the second-largest economy in Europe by 2050.
Turkish entrepreneurs in Europe already run 40 billion worth of businesses and employ 500,000 people.

Let us say, some Arab countries really want to attack Iran or want Iran to be attacked, then it is further proof that those regimes ruling against the will of their populations need to sacked and will of the people be established in those countries.

In the last 10 years, there were established averagely 5.1 new universities every year.
Total universities until 2000 = 74 universities
Total universities as of 2010 = 125 universities

Both F-35 and F-16 are single engine aircrafts, F-4 are twin engine.
The F-4's in Turkish inventory will be phased out in 2020, then there will be need for a new twin-engine aircraft.
Turkey will replace them with an indigenous Aircraft.
Turkey to build national, original fighter aircraft - Hurriyet Daily News and Economic Review
PressTV - Turkey snubs Eurofighter for own jet
Turkey to design, produce its own fighter jet - Arab News
Our current F-4's are modernized versions in 2 configurations
- 2020E Terminator (Air-to-Ground bombing missions)
- ISIK/Lightning (reconnaissance)
The indigenious aircraft to be developed until 2023 will very likely have a mission-duty to fly behind F-35 and F-16, so an air-to-ground bombing aircraft with twin-engines.
Turkish Airforce around 2023:
100+ F-35
240 F-16 CCIP (same configuration of US Airforce)
??? indigenous F-4 replacements.
Dependent on how many F-4 repolacements we get, we might displace Royal Airforce's status of having NATO's 2nd largest Airforce.
Currently, the Turkish Airforce has NATO's 3rd largest Airforce.
