As things begin to hot up on a number of fronts, not just on the battlefield, here are a few useful mnemonics for the regulars to save on keystrokes.
(and they may bamboozle any lurkers and interlopers who may look in from time to time):
IDKWIRI - I don't know where I read it
IDKWITA - I don't know what I'm talking about
IANAE - I am not an expert

Wow... thanks for posting. Imagine reading that in your papers, and seeing on TV, every day, for years. It's a strong mind that could think against it .
Sometimes I'm surprised Steve R is still welcome in Russia.

WTFIETMTA - WTF Is Eric the Meek Talking about
I'm totally opposed to this bastardisation and blatant besmirching of the English language.
It's disgraceful and AFVWIMW (any further violations will incur my wrath); mark my words.
Turkey is barely 1/2 a chum, in fact causing Russia lots of problems in Syria.He's still got his chums in Hungary and Turkey though, and very soon his bezzy pal will be ruling the USA too.

I also saw a report suggesting that the Turkish leader is playing Putin like a fiddle and wouldn't

That sounds about right for Turkey. I'm glad Nato have got them at the entrance to the Black Sea, controlling the movements of Russian naval vessels (in theory).
If they got into the Med, they could get into all sorts of mischief, including ferrying migrants from North Africa to Italy and Spain.
Yes, I suppose so - more a case of Erdogan trying to play both ends against the middle.

I'm not going to get into his alleged domestic human rights abuses or crackdowns, but geopolitically, especially with Ukraine/Russia, I kinda like Erdoğan as far as despots go!
as he more often than not, aligns with Ukraine and against Russia and its proxies.
