Interesting news. Apparently French objections and concern that Arab countries will object have been resolved. Makes sense in that NATO has framework to deal with this situation.

Speech by Hillary being delayed....... Hmmmm.....Could be a Turk is haggling for more n' more n' more. If it's anything about Nato, they've got to pacify that opportunistic waste. They are already 30 minutes late for the 6:15 p.m. announcement. Got Turk trouble written all over it. Who's fkn brilliant idea was it to put them in NATO?...... Just fkn' brilliant.

Yea, but Hillary ain't coming out to announce it. Just saying. I bet she has new Turk trouble. Do you know how hard it is to get this guy paid off enough to agree to do something? They have virtually no natural resources. A Bargain Chip is on their flag.

Yeah, while Turkey is seen as a vital member of NATO, they see the world through different eyes as does Europe and the US, can be frustrating at times!

LOL...She's 45 minutes late. ...Classic.

When she said "all 28 members have agreed," she looked up as if she was announcing the discovery of a cure for a plague....She wants to see a bed.

Yeah, and then off to London for Tuesday's meeting, it's no wonder she has stated that she has no interest in office beyond the next election. Nevertheless, I think she did a good job explaining things as they stand.

What did they bargain with? I know that wasn't cheap. He probably asked for some of those weapons in the district 9 movie.
