Yes, you should nuke Turkey because Turks masterminded and flew planes into World-Trade-Center.
Go smash your head against the wall maybe your head will become clear from all of that swampy Washington Saudi-Israeli-UAE money.

Turks now have soldiers dpeloyed in 8 countries.
In 3 of them there's expeditionary Warfare without domestic population revolting.
Turks stomach warfighting and casualities, keep LGBT in San Francisco and Brussels.
War on terror, cross-border operations will continue with determination.

Lying beneath the four African countries Chad, Egypt, Libya and Sudan, the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System (NSAS) is the world's largest fossil water aquifer system, covering some two million square kilometres and estimated to contain 150,000 cubic kilometres of groundwater.
