Abdullah Gul like many of us is expecting a serious war where neutrality is not an option . Sunni and Shias if they cannot decide matters on table will likely do it on the battlefield . I expect coup in both Pakistan and Turkey in anticipation of that war , that is if war could not be avoided . Chairs high and mighty will fly like kites and I doubt that it is the fate of who will predominate will be decided but I am sure destruction for all parties to combat is assured including that of Iran in the very beginning of this war like that of UAE . So let's listen to Abdullah Gul.
OK what can happen Turkey will take on Kurds and Syrians , IS will take care of Iranians in Iraq , Iran will take care of UAE , Bahrain , Saudia will take care of Yemen , We will take care of Irani Baluchistan , Egypt will do mop up operations here and there , Sudan will side with Saudia and so will Egypt . The possibilities are maddening and immense . Already Pashtuns are finding IS more bloody and more attractive platform , the Uzbeks and chechnians are every body,s . Our jats ,Rajputs and pashtoons have fought in all wars including world wars , warriors are everywhere .
This time fareast fighters and African fighters will participate . It is with us alone not to light the fuse and save ourselves but avoiding our presence in Yemen will accelerate the date of this war . This Waziristan war is toy and Raheel needs to know it .Time is running out .
Abdullah Gul knows that Erdogan is mishandling IS so vital for Turkish state as a proxy to keep Alawites and Iranians at Bay , Erdogan is not facing USA squarely , he is not tackling Kurdish insurgency and pressure , so Turkish military might be tempted to try Gul instead .
Raheel Sharef is also not seeing giant at the back of back in the form of greatwar , he is seeing toy war in Waziristan only . who will assure our shipping lines ,who will take care of our millions in middle east , once war start we are stuck up , one needs to be prepositioned in Yemen and Gulf before war to prevent war , same for Turkey and Egypt too.

Gul urges ‘more realistic’ foreign policy
ISTANBUL: Turkey's former President Abdullah Gul has called for the country to pursue a “more realistic” foreign policy, in one of his most significant political interventions since leaving office, reports said Sunday.
Gul, president from 2007-2014, made the thinly-veiled attack on the government's foreign policy late Saturday at a fast-breaking dinner for the holy month of Ramadan also attended by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Gul cofounded the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) with Erdogan. But tensions between the two men have been an open secret since Gul handed over the presidency to Erdogan in August 2014.
“To be frank, I think it would be beneficial to review our policies in the Middle East and the Arab world with a more realistic approach,” the Dogan news agency quoted Gul as saying at the post-dinner speech in Istanbul.
“Another big development is promised in the region and if a great chaos emerges we could be faced with surprises that we never considered before,” he added.
Gul said Turkey needed to go back to being an “inspiration” in the region and develop its relations with all the countries, including current foes like Egypt.
Commentators have criticized foreign policy under Erdogan for being overly ambitious, with Ankara seeking to make Turkey the central power of the Middle East as under the Ottoman Empire.
However from Egypt to Israel, Turkey has poor relations with many countries in the region and has tricky ties with the West. It has also so far failed in its aim to oust Syrian President Bashar Assad.
Prime Minister and former Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has been repeatedly mocked for explaining Turkey's foreign policy as “zero problems with neighbors”, with critics saying exactly the opposite is the case.
Gul, who was pictured sitting next to Erdogan at the iftar, said the new climate in Turkey after June 7 legislative elections where the ruling party failed to win an overall majority for the first time since it came to power in 2002 should be utilized.
“Because the more people talk to each other, the more there is an open dialogue. Let us know the value of our country,” said Gul.
