Caption This! G7 Summit Edition

:rolleyes: Are you sure those women's breasts are big enough? :rolleyes:

The big battleships all have big guns.
And Japan had the biggest guns, so for historical accuracy reasons she gets the biggest.

Also the US wents nuts, built like 200 Crusiers and didnt even have the manpower to man that many ships. The Japanese went broke building their pre war fleet, kept adding ships without the looking at the requirements for servicing, refits and logistics

Sorry for my late entry but "Yep. It's when I'm sitting just like this that the best ones come to me."
 
"We can be invaded by giant battle robots right now and look at them." Whatever the Japanese PM guy is named.
... You know , am so tempted to rant...

hey , wait ... ı can , can't ı ? Donald Trump is not the idiot people love to depict him as . He would need brains and capability to have come thus far ! So , indeed he is a cunning back stabbing kind of guy . On whom you have to keep sight on and never turn your back as you leave the room . Not because he's some royalty that requires that weird "respect" , but he might have knives nearby . And his time was upon the world and hence he was elected and if it wasn't his time he wouldn't have been elected . Possibly since Wilson , elected for Peace , turning to War as it suited established power centres of the "West" . And putting America on the map . Well , almost . But to certain horror of the said centres . America on the corner , on one feet , until it was needed for the same exact kind of heavy lifting . Roosevelt would have run for the 5th time , too , if he could live that much . Truman , despite the nuke , despite the uber stronk! US Army and US Navy , would have entrenched in the same exact way , but for stuff . Merely weaking the European Colonial Powers to a such extent that British Colonial power would still rule ; makes India 1947 a template to ruin Continental Europeans .


looking at a 30 000 words post ? Oh , my personal time of US watching has been exactly solid and clear . ı could tell Carter was the US president , having learned to read . Reagan was depicted as a fervent anti-Communist . Bush the first won the Gulf War and puked at the shoes of the Japanese PM . Was replaced by the loser Clinton , who was supposed to ruin the hard won victory of Democracies . ı was gaining some stupid "insight" into how things work , though . And Clinton's was an American golden age , filling the treasury , so that Bush the Second could conduct his War on Terror . Draining the treasury , which had be re-filled by the spineless jerk , who also proved to be a no slouch , strategically . It's no small feat to have slave bazaars in the 21st Century . It's not about merely dollar bills but entirity of the American "Soft" power . America could indeed have 13 stripes and 50 swastikas on its flag , but that would somehow weaken the American reach . Trump (or BSS indeed) was accepted by America as necessary for the "next" part of the cycle . China whirring and puffing happily to crash into the wall Japan did almost right after Bush puked , between the bouts of begging to the Japanese that they shouldn't do sooo good in Trade . No sane person can face the risks of a full trade war , or whatever , hence Trump the insane . Who even had some moments of some white face in the White House at the height of the North Korean testing , but anyhow . They will elect some "soft" guy in 2024 so that we , the rest of the peoples of the world , will rejoice at the feeling of having survived Trump . While the "real" Americans will fret at America being "betrayed" . My feeling of incensed at Barack Hussein Obama having a Nobel for Peace , obviously for winning the 2008 election , is getting stronger every year or something .



hence the photo , everybody happily waiting for the director to call "Action" ; the Japanese are habitually poker face anyhow . Some 10 seconds and everybody is happy . German Goverment gets to release it ; you would believe Merkel is ready to grab the bull by the horns and smash it to the ground . Naturally the next day's newspaper shows Merkel is truly a "moderate" . No surprises . In that Globalization is good for business , but selling all those Pentiums in the developing world convinced the kids of 1990s that they too could do . Germany exports , Germany can not export as well if there are "competitors" all around . The Big Thing is a global crash that will bankrupt as many competitors as possible while keeping the respective economies still capable of buying -everything- from the developed world . The Orange Messiah promises to deliver ... While previous German "solo" efforts in the previous Century twice ended bad , one with Red Banner flying above the Reichstag . Germans find the idea "negative" , ı can tell from personal experience like here .

yay , the spoiler part !

Spoiler :

the reason it fails to happen , that smart crisis , is New Turkey . The failure of which is most unacceptable to the world . Anglosphere CFC dudes will most probably would have never heard of Merkel's other presence in the newspaper on the very same day . Germany has millions of Turks , and two are to play in the German team in the World Cup in Russia . But these two have had a photo-op with the PM . Who's a dictator in the current German depiction in Media and German fans are like mad at the two . Because as we all know , Nazism keeps lurking just beneath . Instead of forcing an open split , "Us or Them!" style , Merkel defends the two . Because such a split might convince global markets that "it" has started . Possibly . But the word becomes certainly if it starts and its effects . Will crash New Turkey faster that its so called flag carrier's airliners travel . Not even a 'stan yet . Who's going to fight Turks ?

will not have a Youtube channel . When it starts , ı expect an 8 hour non-stop CNN coverage anyhow . Like on the first day .


we were hearing of the mighty New Turkey economy . Which once again grew 7.4% in the first quarter of the year . Above "expectations" as if the whole world doesn't know Pentiums are long passe and new computer networks and stuff can do wonders in fixing all the statistics to get the required result . New Turkey took over when the GNP of the country was about 200 billions USD . With old numbers and global "inflation" it would be around 540 now . Having changed the way of calculations it becomes 830 or 850 . ı don't exactly remember as of now . The calculations are a secret because some traitors might reach 730 or 750 from the same start .


why and how of the change of direction now "possible" is not my fault or something . The setting of the world required a Kurdish Nation State . Peacefully as Lockmart wanted the trillions that would otherwise be spent on our destruction , as but one company among many . Nothing remotely peer competitors in the War on Terror , but it cost an arm , right ? Democracy comes to this country and no one can dare talk . Congregation can manage half the Army so it's time for Arab Spring , so that the other half can be backstabbed in places like Syria . We Turks can not be that bad , but ya gotta get it that we have a baggage of history , dating back to when all those centres of power started as "social networking" or "conspiracies" . Depending on personal taste , doesn't stand scientific scrutiny but believe it or not , it exists . We are the demonseed , demons of Hell will rise to assist if so cornered . Thus the Catholic Intelligence - if you will -having a bad century or two finally discovered ways of playing various strains of Protestanism against each other ; and "Friend of the Turks" is like the worst . Still . Like 335 years since the last time at Vienna and almost a full century when the writing was on the wall and our demise , if not total extermination , at hand . Libya was done in lightning speed , as a Virtuous War , too . Why not Syria , why not even sending now dead Turkish Armed Forces in ? As the Party was ready and willing ?

even to the extent of setting up a plane shot down , as a cause for war . Gotta see , two pilots were declared dead , after the intital bid to declare them at the hands of the Syrians , with their boots bobbing on the sea , socks properly tucked in , too . National level stuff , the head of the Religious Affairs presenting a Kuran to at least one of the families . Every goddam Turkish house is most likely to have one , but anyhow . Will turn out that a brother of one of the dead is also an AirForce officer , and a Congregation member and a participant in the Disgrace of July 15th . Got a couple of life in prisons , with Goverment officials now explaining they didn't know it .

see , the time for the strategists among board members to rise and say it's Israel , that's prolonging the war in Syria . Cheap attrition and all that . They would be wrong in that Putin fears Israel "scratching his charisma" and would have never dared . The strategic gap he found stems from Congregation discovering they are cowards or something . With the plane down , at least one member dead and NATO refusing Article 5 ,they keep to tried and tested ways . Iran sneaks it , Russia is required to rein the Iranians in . Shooting down the Sukhoi fails to start the Russo-Turkish War , with demons expended trying to destroy Russian nukes or whatever . And amazingly New Turkey still refuses to show the gun camera or whatever footage of the shootdown : No one would believe it to be a Saudi F-15 , right ? So , it's down to Kurds paying the price , for the glory of New Turkey . It can barely avoid the eye that an operation to destroy Kandil , that mountain range between Iraq and Iran and long time base area for seperatists , has begun since March . In view of the Iraqi election . Trump changes the tack , Iran is now bad and friends of Iran are bad , even Ibadi , the Shia guy who can act with the Americans is bad . Mukteda Sadr is good . Despite being responsible for a thousand or whatever dead American soldiers he is good . Because he allied with the Saudis or something . So he wins in the first electronic elections of Iraq . For a manual recount ? Oh , why , a fire in the election centre . Sadr refuses a repeat election , tells Iraqis that they should be brothers . See , seperatists are not that hated in New Turkey , they will provide a couple of hundred dead people so that America can put boots on the ground closer to Iran .

so hopeless with so seamless stuff ? Congregation even botched a coup that it should have carried seamlessly . Supposed to have 40 000 in all ranks , onlyu 6 or 8 000 taking part ? Totally explained by that they are cowards , a hint making in that there will be stuff , hour of the operation advanced and so many thousands watching TV instead . Even if the beheaded were unarmed cadets brought in after the thing was collapsing . And the belted in the open were conscripts after the thing had safely collapsed .

we are hearing there's going to be an another attempt by the Congregation . The leader of the almost racists declare every traitor will be killed this time . The Last Prime Minister , playing the good cop , uses softer words . In all probability in the East , where the seperatist vote is of crucial importance . If less than 10% across the country , they will be wasted and A-K-P will gain an absolute majority in the Parliament . Which means nothing for them , now that PM will keep butressing his powers with that majority . If not , Opposition can gain the Parliament and overturn every decision and stuff of the PM , given time . ı don't doubt there will be references to massive fraud , it can turn to bloodshed only if the West of country does what it look like it might .


as previously mentioned the Ministry of Truth finds the going rough . Some German magazine has an article on the rise of autocrats . With 4 names chosen , say Putin or the Chairman of China . Yeah , you guessed it right , the PM is included . Naturally a Party newspaper loses a bit in the translation and declares PM is one of the 4 greatest leaders of the world . Party faithful either doesn't speak German , or has no access to the web or doesn't care for it anyhow . But the PM , by some luck or something hears about it and declares how bad it is for Merkel that a German magazine does not consider her a great leader of the world , now that no Turkish magazine would consider the PM anything other than a globally gigantic leader of the world , if you get the drift . Actually used in an election rally , you know , with cameras rolling . In the good old days , a million trolls would cover the thing like a cloud and any TV commentator mentioning it would be arrested as a Kemalist coupist on the very next day .

elections , the favourite of A-K-P , are strangely doubtful . Any elections to be won by the Party , or the rules are changed . University of Istanbul , and the candidates of A-K-P never better 10% in the race to become deans and stuff . So , a great education reform , it's too big and will be divided . Expect 51% in at least one of the new universities . The trouble stems from 2015 in which the seperatists failed to underwrite New Turkey / PM's legal covers and the like . Heady with conquest in Syria and make believe war with ISIL , expecting American cover forever . PM needed "Turkish" vote , which rapidly stopped the removal of the letters of TC from official buildings and amazingly everybody started loving the Turkish flag with a vengeance . Finally an alliance of the almost racists with the Party . America contributed generously , with a claim of 4 or 5 thousand seperatists dead in Afrin . Which might have weakened the Party actually , with "Muslim" Kurds aghast at the language and happiness and whatnot . Yeah , election reforms ... Like any single vote for the almost racists and Party is worth two . Exaggerated , sure , sure . But the laws unfortunately allow the Opposition the same ... Parliament divided into an equal two is the least people would expect under normal conditions . Because Emergency Rule is twice "better" in the East , the PM has been forced to concede to promise to give up Emergency Rule when he wins .

this is where the refrigerators enter the picture . There weren't any in the country before A-K-P came to power . Mind you , this is not what the Party believes but the "oppressed Muslims" need to be saved . Not that anyone has seen one , but the Party Faithful is under continious propaganda that their material riches would not happen without the Party . A nice opening for the CHP candidate , his family has had one 40 years ago . He is of course a loser , my parents brought theirs from Bulgaria in August 1972 while emigrating . Bought possibly before ı was born . So it becomes "Tomografi" devices . These scan you , think they are Magnetic Resonance somethings in English . None before A-K-P , even if the first started running in Turkey in 1992 . Relevant in the discussion of "city" hospitals . Now this might really surprise the average CFC member , but the Turkish branch of Murdoch's Fox is very balanced , like mainstream or something . Especially in consideration of the Party media . So Fox reports the city hospital of Mersin is faulty for this or that . A typical New Turkey uproar , treason , whatnot . PM assures the hospital might be like on the border of the province and it might be unfit for the handicapped but clients will come . Not for the health of people ; as oldtimers might remember me and some guy arguing whether the advance was due to the Party or not , but "Party Business" . If Party wins the vote , Party decides the contracts and only "Muslims" get the money . PM puts in some personal touch , his classroom had 75 kids when he started school during the "reign of the single party" . Which refers to CHP rule , more specifically between 1939-46 and the PM was born in 1954 . Though might have the element of truth . If he started in 1961 , CHP would be in charge . Yeah , A-K-P built all the schools , too .


leads to the awesomest , the like of which was never encountered before . "Millet Kıraathaneleri" , reading rooms for the Nation . All the teahouses any tourist might have seen in Turkey are a Kıraathane in the old use , at least since ı was born . Owner buys a couple of newspapers and you can read them "free" now that the convention is that you buy a glass of tea or two and sit , watch TV , talk with people , play cards , whatever that pleases you . Nation's reading room would differ in that the Ministry of Truth would choose the newspapers and the TV channels allowed . Yeah , taxpayer money so that the truth be told as it suits the Party . Open for 7/24 , free tea . To attract people . There are 700 000 teahouses in the country ; logic dictates half of the owners would agree to work for the Party for a salary . Made Opposition laugh , so cakes were added . No doubt "Muslim" company owners asked for it , now that the Saudi - Qatari split hurts exports to Middle East . More laughter and now soups and full meals . Closure of the web cafes in sight , after restaurants and the like financially hurt , because Party has never lost an election . Don't know what to do ... Having destroyed the notion that taxpayer money requires state control on expenditures , they are now offering to feed the deserving "free" through the "labour" of the undeserving . So that the undeserving will vote in the right way .


whaaat ? No use of historical examples , in ways totally unrelated ? Reading some book on the experiences of Germans and Austro-Hungarians in the Great War . And random checks on stuff trawled from the net . Did you know the Brits of 1918 feared 4 000 German bombers would descend on London if the newly minted RAF started terror bombing ? More likely 40 in reality and it was only geography that kept Berlin safe and stuff . But Romanians are the new fave . Like whole units surrender to Russians , their allies in the war against the Central Powers , thinking them Russians are Bulgarians . Thus "liberated" Russians then merrily plunder their allies ...
