I don't know why anyone even takes you seriously. Worst world power ever in history.

I would think that people would be much more favorably inclined towards a super power that didn't win very often. It may be that the USA is more popular than it is taken seriously, which happens when you have a country with a lot of money and disastrous spending habits.

In any case, I don't see what we would do militarily against Russia. Are there any nations that would, at this point, agree to allow the USA to drag them into another war? I can't imagine that there would be popular support for sending armed forces abroad after we have spent the last decade complaining that we aren't bringing the troops home quickly enough.

Well, I don't know. Frankly I do not really pray every day for a military intervention by the US or something, I'm not pathetic as to hope that someone else might come to my rescue, like a little princess.

But as for the US, since it styles itself as a super power, a major player who claims to be the police of the world(evidenced by its "war on terror") should actually be able to back this claim up.
When we Turks were a superpower, we used to get involved into the matters of other countries quite often. We paid the price. So must the US, if it wishes to continue its facade.

I have an older computer and my hard-drive is out. I was using a Xubuntu live disc to bypass the hard-drive to get on the internet...now, when I try to use the Xubuntu disc, my computer freezes up and won't run it anymore...I'm using SliTaz now, (another Linux program),to get online and I can't play the videos. So what am I doing wrong?

Yeah well, we can still kick your Turkish asses...

What? You're going to threaten us to death?
But in all seriousness, if you think its going to help, you're certainly welcome to try. We're certainly not afraid of you.

What you should be afraid of kılıç is NATO (including your country) getting getting involved and having the Russians bombing your cities.

Where did I threaten your country with death? I just said we could still kick your Turkish asses.

I'm not afraid of them either. We fought the russians for hundreds of years. In fact, I would welcome the chance of going against our age-old enemies.

Besides, if the NATO gets involved, as part of the NATO, we will have to play our part and make sacrifices accordingly, while you will sit in your far away continent and continue your idle threats. Everyone will be remembered accordingly. I just hope for the Russians that when they come to bomb us, they do so throughoutly and without leaving even a single child alive, as if they fail...

Well, is this a joke, is there something that I missed?
As I said, your threats of ass-kicking, whatever that amounts to, are idle and empty. If you wish to prove them true, do so.

As I said, kicking your Turkish asses would be an easy walk in the park for the U.S....you guys over there are light-weights.

Oh my good lord I've wandered into the playground.

Let me know if you plan to start with "my dog could beat your dog" etc .

Whatever you say chief.
Makes me wonder why you had to pull out from a civil-war torn Vietnam and are pulling out from a similarly fractured Afghanistan.

I never made such a claim. He came up with "We can kick your ass". What was the response he wanted, I wonder?
