thx for voting .))
 
Well, I guess throughout the year they could be. But around Thanksgiving I would say they would beg to differ. I usually declare war on Turkey once a year. Maybe twice. Depending upon what my wife cooks for Christmas.

I think your choices are a bit too polarized, but yes I'd consider Turkey an ally.

Turkey launches unprovoked attack on its helpless neighbors. US government representatives intervene to halt further violence.

 
Turkey was a strong ally of the west for many years after Ataturk, but the recent trend toward Islamism is worrisome.
 
Turkey is about as close to an ally as we're going to get over there with the exception of Israel.

They're my ally as long as they have the best coffee in the world.

Please explain why you think Turkey is more secular than the USA. I'd like to read about your perspective on the matter.

google it please

okay l will say something about it

Turkey and the United States have had an alliance for decades, and one that proved mutually beneficial to both nations. Foreign relations isn't about childish nonsense like having "friends", but rather who is willing to share your interests. There will be inevitable disagreements, the point is focus on areas in which there are considerable benefits from cooperation. Current political situations have cooled relations a bit, but the alliance should still be kept intact if at all feasible.
 
yes thats why we are ally ..

Not sure I understand. If Turkey is attempting to arm Islamist in Africa that would not be something an ally would do. Islamist and al Qaeda in particular are enemies of the United States.

Agreed. Nations don't have friends, they have interests.
