Simply ignore him....freeze him out...most people do.

He thrives on your answers...they spur him on.

OK jimbuna knocked it on the head.

Don't feed the troll, do not post in his threads or answer any posts he makes. That simple. I do not have time to keep jumping on it every time someone reports a post by OTH because he has ticked someone off.

1. I've always been willing to give OTH some slack, because I like some of his posts. And...

2. I've never, ever used the ignore button. But...

This attempt to turn a thread about Turkey and the Kurds into yet another bashing of the United States and Israel not only has nothing whatsoever to do with the topic, and seems to have no reason other than to annoy people. Since that is the very definition of trolling, I guess there's a first time for everything.

Goodbye, OTH.

Why are Nato countries forced to buy weapons from the US?
We are?
The **** are you on about now?

So they will function correctly with US control systems. For example the Canadian Halifax class frigates use the US designed Mk-46 torpedo, Harpoon and Evolved Sea Sparrow missile so they are totally comparable with the US Navy's Aegis system. Aegis not only controls the weapons of an Aegis Cruiser/Destroyer it also can control the weapons of other ships in the group. So a US destroyer can take control of a Canadian frigate's weapons and guide them using its superior number of fire control radars, or the US destroyer could guide its weapons using the FCR of a Canadian frigate to boost its range. Also they use the same weapons to have a common inventory to draw from, the US stockpiles stores of arms in most Allied countries- so its nice if the local military can use the same munitions and spare parts as US forces.

The Eurofighter Typhoon, made completely in Europe and capable of using US or European munitions. It's being sold to several NATO countries.
