Turkey is an ally of US so it is normal for US to sell equipment to Turkey...


The truth might be changed by victory...

Because developping weapons require great resources and most countries don't have ebough resources to develop themself.
And now after cold war,military industry is no more profitable.


Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build bridges even when there are no rivers.

Yes you are right.......... and a victorious, successful, Hitler and Third Reicht would never have had any any any interest in Sweden. His ambitions included controling or allying every single European country except Sweden.
