How to Neutralize NATO? Have Turkey for Dinner!
Turkey is the Game-changer and the Key for Russia
“Anyone who thinks this conflict will be limited to Ukraine only isn’t watching the news.”
Scott Ritter, former Iraq Chemical Weapons Inspector
So, Russia is now paying NATO back for all the years of heartache and security problems NATO created.
We’ve made some predictions most of which have come to pass, including the war in Ukraine itself. So, we’ll now go into our next prediction.
Since 2007 Putin’s been warning NATO this was coming and so finally it came.
Russia had to take some action, we predicted it would, and it did.
In one of my previous posts on Telegram (Fatima channel) I said this:
This is an extremely important development. Listen carefully:
"Roman Mashovets, the Deputy Head of the National Security and Defense Agency of Ukraine: #Bayraktar #TB2 was used against Russian battery."
This is obviously a NATO and #US provocation. They intentionally crossed the Russian 'red line' to see what the Russians will do.
This means that Russia HAS TO DO SOMETHING, now, or soon.
If the Russians do nothing in the next few weeks or months, that's it for #Putin and for #Russia. They may as well accept the moniker of 'vassal' and surrender to the US deep state satanic empire now, and take the empire's vaccine too.
So it'll have to be soon, or that's it for Russia.
We expect and forecast that Russia will take some steps in the not too distant future, and these steps will be 'kinetic', and will either be direct steps, or steps that are asymmetric-- they will be extremely painful for the West, #US and NATO.
If we were in this position, we would not just stop at #Ukraine, we would take the important and strategic #Dardanelles and #Bosporus straits to completely cripple #NATO.
If this means that #Turkey has to be destroyed, so be it.

"On a Friday phone call Russian President Vladimir Putin told his Turkish counterpart Tayyip Erdogan that Ukraine is using Turkish-made drones against pro-Russia separatists in the war-torn Donbass region. #Putin put the Turkish leader on notice over the 'destabilizing' activity of the continued drone transfers from Turkey to Ukraine." ZeroHedge
This is big. Turkey could be the cause of #TheWar and they may well pay with their territory.
So, you understand now that Turkey may have a lot to do with Ukraine and Russia’s decision to start the regime change in Ukraine.
Russia was left with no choice in the matter and I don’t have time to explain all that here.
Now before we go on with this ‘Turkey’ theory, we are assuming that NATO will avoid war with Russia over Ukraine and that they won’t use a #falseflag to inject themselves into the conflict (note some already say that NATO is involved within the Ukrainian military, directing their moves and counter-moves and just today there were “rumors that that elements from Poland [not in Ukraine but] outside forces[,] shot down two Russian IL-76 transport planes with troops on board. It's unclear whether this is true in any way, including whether the aircraft were [shot down].”
And so, for example as the “Fatima” telegram channel put it today, a false flag could be a possibility here.
See this link https://t.me/FatimaRussia/2346 which I extract below (without the video)
First look at this seemingly INSANE drivel by Jen Stoltenberg the bankster from #NATO [he says words to the effect ‘we will keep sending weapons to Ukraine’].
Keep this in mind: The issue of the #FalseFlag looms large in what he says.
How? Well, he says that #NATO will still deliver weapons and air defence systems to Ukraine!!???
What?!?
Yes, the answer is 'canon fodder' - they might get idiots like the poor Poles to do the dirty work and then GET BLOWN AWAY BY THE RUSSIANS.
So what does that mean?
It means that Russians attacked a #NATO member which could trigger #Article5 of the NATO charter resulting in the start of #WW3 #WWIII.
So what he says is truly insane, but not in the way that I first thought.
Now look at the second link here https://t.me/FatimaRussia/2347. I have extracted it here:
So with this initial #FalseFlag, we're still really at 10A below (assume the Russian operation is really at 10 at this time)
NATO still needs a direct attack on its forces to engage with #Russia commencing at 11 […]
(Reminder this is just one escalation path to #WW3 - the #UkraineEscalationPath)
One possible escalation path:
1. The US ups its anti-Russian rhetoric.
2. The Europeans immediately follow suit and also escalate.
3. Ukrainians also immediately follow suit and also escalate.
4. The LDNR republics warn of escalation and increase pressure on Russia.
5. The Russians react to all of the above and harden both their rhetoric and actions, mainly through war games.
6. The West feels like it has to show its military power, but does so again, symbolically, through war games.
7. The Russians officially declare that the West is 1) non-agreement capable and 2) hypocritical beyond words.
8. The West then uses its “soft” (political) power to harass Russia, only further making things worse;
9. Russia then shows off actual military capabilities (e.g. moving YARS RS-24s out of bunkers or amassing troops close to Ukraine borders) to oppose western symbolic actions.
10. The West accuses Russia of military escalation.
10A. West purports to move military hardware and troops into Eastern Europe and Ukraine.
11. There is an ‘initial incident’. The initial incident at 'ground zero' ignites things, I think this is how a war would proceed from there (‘ground zero’ could be anything including an attack by a third country, e.g. it could include Ukraine attacking the breakaways and Russia responding hard);
[12 is deleted]
13. US/NATO then become militarily involved;
14. Russia and US exchange conventionally in the area of the incident (or at ground zero);
15. One of them resorts to an attack on military installations outside ground zero but not within the US/Russia territory, e.g. Russia launches conventionally against Centcom in Europe;
16. The other retaliates by taking out military centers of the other;
17. This escalates to a point where all military installations everywhere except in the territory of the country proper, are targeted;
18. Russia sinks all US aircraft carriers (at this point third countries take the opportunity to attack others e.g. China may take Taiwan, Iran may launch against Israel);
20. Now US resorts to an attack on Russian military installations INSIDE Russian territory proper;
20. Russia reacts by attacking places like NORAD and all US territorial military installations;
21. US uses its 'first strike' doctrine and lunches its nukes;
22. Russia activates and launches its nuclear weapons including its missiles (e.g. Avangard) which may be already in orbit.
23. See the ‘Princeton Simulation’ (Plan A) on this channel for the rest of the story…
And so we’re assuming that Ukraine could spark the fire of #TheWar.
But if Ukraine can’t spark that fire, as Scott Ritter above implies, Ukraine simply can’t be the end of the story.
Russia needs to in effect debilitate NATO once and for all (at least in Russia’s own mind) using a ‘Judo move’, or as Putin puts it “Military Technical” moves, which will simply shock NATO and throw it off balance and paralyze it. “So how can Russian do that? Put another way: How can #Russia burn #NATO and #US so bad they will cry turd-tears for a decade?”)
Russia probably has a ‘#stage1’ and then a ‘#stage2’ plan in mind.
This much was confirmed by the Russian speaking Israeli operative Yaakov Kedmi recently. Clint Ehrlich said about Kedmi:
“Russian-Israeli diplomat Yaakov Kedmi says the current operation in Ukraine may be only the first stage of Russia's ‘military-technical’ response to the West. He says the next steps could be deployments to Serbia, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Cuba.”
So yes, there are at least two stages to this war. But I strongly disagree that stage 2 will involve any moves in Latin America or South America.
I have already talked about that and here is an extract from a previous post on substack (Russia's asynchronous options, Jan 29, 2022 AD):
However, moving missiles or other complex systems into Latin America is extremely expensive and very risky for Russia to do at this stage and this is not 1960s. US will have various ways of overcoming that threat including through blockades, direct attacks and even capture of those complex systems. Russia will not risk that.
But there is another move which will not only solve all of Russia’s problems viz. NATO, it will also more than make up for all the strategic and long-term issues that Russia can face in Europe and in its conflict with America (I have already covered it to some extent in the post on substack: “Turkey for Dinner: A Great Way to Debilitate NATO”, Feb 13, 2022 AD)
That move will involve the neutralization of Turkey.
First let’s look at this from a geophysical perspective.
Consider this: The seemingly simple control of the all-important straits of #Dardanelles and #Bosporus (see the black rectangle on the image below), will give Russia effective control over all of the featured area plus more (see the next two images).
This following is an image of a huge portion of the #MediterraneanSea with the straits in question within the black rectangle.
As I have previously said:
“Full unfettered access to those areas will give Russia absolute control over the whole of the Mediterranean, neutralizing virtually all the problems posed by NATO up and down the entire #MediterraneanSea western front and beyond. It will be a completely unexpected game changer.”
“[We’ve] already seen how Turkey has annoyed Russia to no end: In Syria, Libya and in relation to Crimea. And now these [provocative] actions are going to raise the ire of Russia even more [significantly].
“So how can Russia a) undermine NATO; b) take revenge on Turkey (who can forget how Turkey shut down the Russian fighter in 2015) over Syrian skies) and c) surprise everyone?”
As I highlight in Telegram and on Substack on Feb 14, 2022 AD NATO (as well as Russia) uses these straits regularly:
Look at this (and the images) via “Bosphorus Observer”:
"Armed with Novator 3M14 (NATO:SSN-30-A) Kalibr-PL cruise missiles, #ВМФ Project 636.3 Kilo+ class sub #ЧФ Black Sea Fleet 4th Independent Submarine Brigade’s Rostov-na-Donu Б237 transited Bosphorus towards #BlackSea after 600 days. My pix via @reuterspictures"
Then think #Russia #NATO #Turkey
Then think Kung Fu...
A blind bat can easily tell what the probabilities are here.
Funnily enough in recent few days: Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu in a recent interview, disputes #Greece’s sovereignty over some of its islands.
Again, as I have previously said:
“[And] so the taking of these [strategic] straights will ensure that Russia is fully in control using its S400 (and more advanced systems) to [ensure that no NATO craft set foot in the Black Sea and large parts of the Mediterranean]:
“#Bosporus is a great possibility. Full unfettered access to those areas will give Russia absolute control over the whole of the Mediterranean, neutralizing virtually all the problems posed by NATO up and down the entire #MediterraneanSea western front and beyond. It will be a completely unexpected game changer.”
The unfettered access by Russia towards the open Mediterranean will ensure that much of Russia’s grievances are addressed (see further below re sanctions etc.)
In any event Russia has a lot of excuses to ‘get’ Turkey.
Syria is an important one. The stealing of oil from Syria and the sponsorship of various terror groups by Turkey there gave Russia a lot of anxiety over the years.
For example writer Vanessa Beeley explains the all-too familiar funding sources for the White Helmets in her article entitled, Syria’s White Helmets: War by Way of Deception, Part I:
“The White Helmets were established in March 2013, in Istanbul, Turkey, and is headed by James Le Mesurier, a British “security” specialist and ‘ex’-British military intelligence officer with an impressive track record in some of the most dubious NATO intervention theatres including Bosnia and Kosovo, as well as Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine. Le Mesurier is a product of Britain’s elite Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, and has also been placed in a series of high-profile posts at the United Nations, European Union, and U.K. Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The origins of The White Helmet’s initial $300k seed funding is a little hazy, reports are contradictory but subsequent information leads us to conclude that the UK, US and the ‘Syrian opposition’ (or Syrian National Council, parallel government backed an funded by the US, UK and allies) are connected. Logistical support has been provided and given by Turkish elite natural disaster response team, AKUT. A further $13 million was poured into the White Helmet coffers during 2013 and this is where it gets interesting. Early reports suggest that these “donations” came from the US, UK and SNC with the previously explored connections to George Soros in the US. However, subsequent investigations reveal that USAID has been a major shareholder in the White Helmet organisation. The website for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) claims that, “our work supports long-term and equitable economic growth and advances U.S. foreign policy objectives by supporting: economic growth, agriculture and trade; global health; and, democracy, conflict prevention and humanitarian assistance.” In a USAID report update in July 2015 it is clearly stated that they have supplied over $ 16m in assistance to the White Helmets.”
But it’s not just Syria, Turkey (probably on behalf of Israel and definitely on behalf of NATO) kept fanning the flames of war over in places like Ukraine, Azerbaijan/Armenia, and Khazakhstan, trying to undermine Russia’s ‘sphere of influence’.
And various people on the ground (e.g. Russell ‘Texas’ Bentley) have already confirmed that there are literally thousands of ISIS-related ‘moderate’ head-choppers on the #Ukraine side now, brought in by Turkey's Erdogan.
From the very beginning of this Ukraine operation Erdogan was bothering Russia: "Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan criticized Vladimir Putin's decision to recognize the DPR and the LPR.”
Now Turkey is actively helping Ukraine by “providing military assistance to Ukraine and is already supplying new Bayraktar [#TB2] drones, instead of those destroyed in the first days of the military operation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation [with] Ankara [delivering] several dozen drones to Kiev.”
Turkey has for a long time been a true love of NATO/US/Israel (despite all the rhetoric). For example, UK and US ensured that Turkey could take and occupy half of Cyprus not too long ago, against the wishes of their so-called ally, Greece.
In the last few days, ‘the Sultan’ Erdogan has gone on "convenes a meeting of the Turkish Security Council because of Ukraine. Claiming that a ‘military intervention’ has taken place”. Those words are important, because they give other states a pretext to intervene as well, as in Syria. (The history of those words is very long, so may be another time.)
Not only does Turkey continue to annoy Russia and provoke it badly, it also has the biggest army after US, inside NATO, and so its neutralization will burn NATO hard!
Despite what many analysts say, Russia views Erdogan and Turkey as really an enemy, and Russia would like nothing less than neutralizing him and with Turkey, taking on some of its all-important and strategic geography.
One can easily see what can potentially happen: Russia has been cornered and a ‘cornered bear’ will eventually only behave one way. When the proverbial ‘last straw’ is placed on its back, Russia will probably take an action against the US interests directly, or against one or more of US’ close and or strategic allies (e.g. Turkey).
Russia has already started this process with Ukraine. But it will continue the process.
But how can Russia involve itself with Turkey at a ‘Stage 2’ leg of this war and how can it involve Turkey?
In the Mediterranean, Turkey is [currently] at loggerheads with Greece, Cyprus, Egypt and Israel over rights to resources off the coast of the divided island of Cyprus.
Turkey will (has promised to) actually start a war against Greece if Greece does what it has been promising with its territorial waters (in turn the Turks promised us they will start a war in 1995), and #Russia might take the opportunity to engage by taking the straits of #Dardanelles and #Bosporus at that time, and as I have repeatedly said, crippling #NATO's formations and movements in air and sea over practically the entire Mediterranean, securing not only itself, but also allies such as #Syria.
All Russia needs, is an excuse — e.g. for Turkey to start a war once Greece acts legally to extend its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles (nms) from the current 6.
#Greece has every right to do this under international law and the Greeks of course insist that they will extend to 12 nms:
ANA-MPA News: "Diplomatic sources: #Greece's firm position the inalienable right to extend its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles"
As I said above, Turkey’s been escalating a potential conflict with both Greece and Russia for a while now including recently by making outright claims on various Greek Islands and areas within the Aegean Sea, and the Mediterranean as far as Libya. There have been some escalations in recent times in relation to the civil war in Libya with Turkey on one side and Greece and France et al on the other.
Greece recently blocked Turkey from flying sorties against Libyan factions over its airspace (never mind that Turkey violates Greek airspace daily).
If Turkey escalates somehow (it has many options, including hitting in on the Aegean Sea Greek islands), Russia could take the opportunity and take the NATO member Turkey out wholesale, taking into possession the most important gateways in the world.
The West (US) just can’t allow that to happen. It will have to go to war to take the straits back whether Biden wants that or not, the decision will be a function of the deep state.
What is Greece doing right now?
Greek FM recently hinted at Greece's soon coming decision to extend its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles in accordance with international law.
At a recent a symposium with the Foreign Minister of #Greece, Mr Nikolaos Dendias on 16 February, he discussed the Law of the Sea in the Aegean Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean.
There were questions pertaining to the law of the Sea in the Eastern Mediterranean and in relation to the "implementation of Greece's territorial waters as 12 miles”.
The extension means war with #Turkey because this is a declared casus belli by Turkey, and the change will create a situation where in Turkey’s mind, 70% of the Aegean will become Greek territorial waters overnight.
Despite Turkey’s warning, Greece has threatened to go ahead with the extension.
Almost one year ago, Greece extended its western flank to 12, from 6 nautical miles. #Greece recently celebrates 1 year since it extended the Greek territorial waters in its western flank (i.e. Ionia sea).
Now all the indications are that Greece is going to do same in the east (facing #Turkey).
Greece is not hiding the fact that the eastern flank extension is coming.
Prokopis Pavlopoulos, former President of Greece (2015-2020) has confirmed this coming extension in recent weeks (24 Jan 22, reported in Adologala. gr):
"Greece, whenever it deems it appropriate, can, and will, extend its Aegialitida Zone [territorial waters] to 12 nautical miles"— it will be done "as a matter of priority".
In order to reach a compromise with Turkey, #Greece has in recent weeks offered extend its territorial waters to 10 nautical miles instead of 12.
Turkey has refused.
So Greece will have no choice soon enough — they will have to extend to the full 12 nms— in _accordance with international law_.
Recently The Greek FM had a meeting with Lavrov in which this was quite possibly discussed because the Greek FM spoke about the casus belli laid out by Turkey on Greece in relation to any extension (and rumor has it that following the meeting between Lavrov and Greek FM Nikos Dendias, #Russia was in 'total agreement' with #Greece extending its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles in the Aegean! I wonder if the Russians have hardcore intel on what each of Greece and Turkey is planning, and hence their military movements and Ukraine coordination now.)
If Greece goes ahead, as I have been at pains to emphasize, Turkey will more than likely go to war with it and try to capture some strategic Aegean Sea Greek islands.
'The attitude of war toward Greece' is already being expressed widely in Turkey, and the Turks seem to be getting themselves excited for war. Here's some typical chatter:
"#Erdogan is a great leader. We Turks come together around a strong leader.”
&
"[Greece wants] to extend its territorial waters to 12 miles. In response to this, we said ‘casus belli’! Because [we] also have shores and rights in this sea. You [Greece is] the one who is selfish and making stupid moves! You have armed the unarmed islands specified in Lausanne [Treaty]!”
"If you're looking for hostility, look in the mirror because our stance is clear.”
"For example, 12 islands! [i.e. they want the Aegean islands that are rightfully Greece's]"
And Turkey has warned Greece again and again about all this:
#Turkey has warned #Greece against expanding its territorial waters from 6 to 12 nautical miles in the Aegean Sea
Image: This is the difference that Turkey says will result in #TerritorialWaters expansion if Greece should take this step. Greece with 6 nms on the left of the image and 12 nms on the right.
Turkey is already starting to point to various islands as their ‘bones of contention’ (they started this some time ago) even before #Greece goes ahead and declares its rightful territorial waters demarcation at 12 nautical miles— Turkey is nitpicking on individual islands in the #AegeanSea.
For example, claims like this are not rare: "The island of #Rhodes is a natural extension of the Turkish mainland. It cannot create a maritime jurisdiction other than its own territorial waters."
He is referring to “Rodos” on this image:
Of course, if this explodes by Turkey taking the announcement of the Territorial Waters extension as an excuse to attack, or by Turkey simply using the ‘Ukraine’ opportunity to launch the attack on Greek Islands, it is quite possible that #Russia will take that opportunity to take #Dardanelles and #Bosporus and cripple #NATO completely. And so, this is how these “#Ukraine and Turkey war threads seem to be converging".
Again the simple control of the all-important straits of #Dardanelles and #Bosporus, will give #Russia effective control over all of the Mediterranean Sea.
Hence if Putin decides that he needs Turkey, what does he need to do in Ukraine?
#Putin at a very high level, simply needs to move and 'land-lock' #Ukraine from the south for further 'military technical' operations against #NATO and Turkey down from that corridor facing Turkey and the straits.
As some have predicted, including me, to take Ukraine Putin will need targeted surgical operations but more will be needed for a multi-stage operation.
This means that Russia needs to be in full control of the Black Sea coast and we’re seeing that being done right now.
Yes, the #landlock tactic is already at play which will include #Odessa and #Mariupol as I write.
Earlier (in the Telegram channel Fatima) I projected that Putin won't go to #Kiev despite what many analysts say. We’ve seen that “he’s gone there” but that’s not for a permanent occupation but a regime change, and so it’s still true that he won’t settle in Kiev permanently.
But Putin may well settle in for the full control over the #BlackSea region over at #stage1, and the word is that Russia may want to take on everything east of Dnieper river (or "Dnipro" river).
This comports very well with the #landlock theory and the #stage1 and then #stage2 concept.
It will make total sense for #Putin to take all the southern portion of #Ukraine (leaving Ukraine land-locked) in a 'stage 1' operation, to ensure that he has clear military access to Dardanelles and Bosporus (bottom left of the image) for a 'stage 2' operation, possibly involving Turkish territory.
If you see the southern coastal part (or stage 1) happen (which as I say is already in play with the Ukraine war), then know that 'stage 2' is a real possibility.
In a way Putin has hinted at this-- he hinted of an even larger operation (e.g. he promised he'll go after the terror groups who 'burnt people alive', and he spoke about the danger of NATO and so implied operations to neutralize #NATO, at least in the territory of Ukraine). But of course, he won’t give the game away at all right now.
Will Russia actually do this?
It's coming to the place right now where Russia will take all necessary measures it must because it will have nothing left to lose.
Just consider some of the following:
- "EU is closing its airspace to all Russian airlines";
- EU says it will paralyze the assets of Russia's Central Bank;
- Various other sanctions including select SWIFT and other banking sanctions are here;
- Freezing and confiscation of Russian assets is in full swing;
- Sanctions on Putin and Lavrov and other Russian leadership personally have been laid (Russian MFA later said that "#Russia will fully break diplomatic relations with all countries that are going to sanction president #Putin or members of the Russian govt"); and
- Just a few hours ago we heard that “[the] glorious French Navy has intercepted a Russian flagged cargo ship with cars destined for Saint Petersburg under the pretext that the bank owning it was under ‘sanctions’ (reminder: only the UNSC can impose sanctions, all others only steal). This act of piracy on the high seas got an enthusiastic support from the western PSYOPs.”
These kinds of hinderances and roadblocks will continue unabated for Russia now.
The harassments won’t stop.
People say that these sanctions mean nothing, and that Russia will survive, and it will just ride along.
No, these sanctions are casus belli and acts of war (especially the ones on Russia’s leadership, including Putin and Lavrov) and won’t be easily removed, not in the foreseeable future in any event.
Whether these are practical sanctions or not is quite beside the point.
The taking of Ukraine won’t improve the Russian situation in the Baltics either. Moreover, Russia will in no way get its security guarantees now. Those documents are still open and ready for acceptance by the West, but the West will not accept them.
NATO and US will also make Russia’s life extremely hard in every possible way they can. The capture of the cargo ship today shows you how unfair and subjective these sanction rules (which are, by the way, illegal) are and how they could be applied going forward.
This won’t end well for Russia if it doesn’t use the next ‘Military Technical’ steps or if it doesn’t go to stage 2.
But there is more when it comes to NATO, US and importantly Turkey.
Just today, Zelensky tweeted this:
Of course he didn’t tell us the whole truth as later confirmed by some Turkish elements:
But and as I said on Telegram (Fatima):
[We] know that Zelensky would NOT come up with this by himself. Earlier #Washington deep state was making this demand of #Turkey. Turkey pretended that it would not do this and now they're considering it!
What's the bet that Russia is in talks with #Greece RIGHT NOW asking them to extend their territorial waters to 12 nautical miles so as to give Russia an upper hand in dictating whether or not Bosporus and Dardannells will be shut off. Russia is probably saying to Greece "you do the extension, and we'll support you, with guns if needed".
But even without the extension, if Turkey closes the straits, Russia will attack Turkey.
It’s also important to know that Turkey is lying about some aspect of this here.
They probably have a plan in relation to the closure of the straits at some point. As the Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said earlier: "Turkey may close the Bosporus and Dardanelles for the passage of warships, but even in this situation, the Russian Federation will have the right to use them to return the fleet to their bases”.
A straightforward reading of this means that so Turkey wants to let the Russian ships ‘back in’, but obviously won't let them back out again into the Mediterranean, afterwards.
So the big question-- what’s going to happen?
Here is one of the potential scenarios— an 'out of left field' hypothetical which is pinned on our Telegram Channel “Fatima: Russia will be the Instrument of the Chastisement of the Globalist Deep State Empire”, here: https://t.me/FatimaRussia/1753
-Greece announces this year that, as per international law, it will extend its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles (12 nms) in its eastern flank;
-#Turkey is enraged and launches surprise attacks on Greek islands in the #AegeanSea to try and capture as many disputed islands as possible;
-#Greece can't seem to save the Islands;
-#Russia uses the opportunity from its coastal bases over #landlock|ed #Ukraine (moves from that theater) and attempts to grab a hold of at least part of Turkey and in particular, the straits of #Dardanelles and #Bosporus;
-Turkey backs up out of its Greek theater and tries hard to defend these straits— it can't, and it is destroyed;
-Russia is in complete control over the Mediterranean;
-the West snaps out of its initial shock and declares #war on Russia;
-#TheWar starts shortly thereafter...
So will we get Constantinpole back? Will we get Hagia Sophia back?
We’ll see what happens. I’ll keep you updated…
