Two young American soldiers were accosted recently on the streets of Istanbul by members of the Youth Union of Turkey. In video footage of the event, paint-filled projectiles are thrown at the two Americans and bags are temporarily placed over their heads. A member of the Youth Union of Turkey tells the men that "because we define you as murderers, as killers, we want you to get out of our land".
The Youth Union of Turkey is a left-wing nationalist revolutionary youth organization founded in 2006. It comprises 65 student clubs and societies from over 40 Turkish universities.
The union advocates the principles of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and Kemalism and opposes any future Turkish membership in the European Union and any cooperation with American imperialism.

The truth of their subservience
seems most likely to be impressed on them by osmosis. The more this happens the more some will get the message. No breath held though as the inflicted mind damage is deep and almost impenetrable. Still hope is good and persistence great!

They are working non-stop, I love them.
American soldiers had placed bags over Turkish soldiers in Northern Iraq years ago ( I guess in 2002) because Turkey had not allowed US troops to use our land to invade Iraq. That was the time when erdogan was newly elected.

Do you think the American soldiers learned anything from this encounter? Do you think they had any thoughts about what was said? I hope so but doubt it.
They learned that Turkey isn't safe for tourism, investment etc. These stunts look nice on social media with their friends and supporters, but remind me of most right wing stunts that accomplish much the same thing, but then isn't Turkey next on the list for regime change? Th

This needs to be done at the Nato air training base in the Canadian city where I live. Too often these pilots are treated like they're someone special instead of the murderers of innocent civilians they really are. I have an acquaintance who is well aware of this fact, was vocally against Canada's participation in The Libyan campaign, yet he treats them with deference and politeness.
They should be shunned for the murderers that they are.
