    None of these generals would have ever knowingly allowed someone like Trump to command so much as a platoon.

    In 2017, Erdogan’s government established an “Office for Human Abductions & Executions” targeting Turkish dissidents living abroad — this case in Switzerland is just one example of the criminal activity undertaken by Erdogan’s ‘diplomatic’ operatives abroad:
