There is no question that the US and many other countries spent a lot of money looking into a way to control things like earthquakes. Turkey doesn't quite make sense as a target. However, they've proven to be pretty sophisticated with their drones during the second Nagorno-Karabakh War. I'd argue their use of drones eclipses any that have yet to be seen in combat including the US, and they did it seemingly without any satellite infrastructure. Their home grown tanks also seem to be pretty sophisticated. However, we haven't seen any tank v tank battles from first world military in decades so it is really hard to assess. I've been pretty shocked at how rapidly their defense technology has progressed recently.
Given this, a country like Russia might have motive to demonstrate or test such as weapon in turkey.
Turkey doesn't quite make sense as a target
Only because we don't understand the strategy. It's possible the government made a threat to someone else and said we will demonstrate our weapon. We will never know.
No way Russia did that, it was definitely the Martians.
Why do the martians hate the turks that much? Granted everyone hates the turks, but why did they hate them enough to deploy a weapon against them? Are they still mad at us for destroying the planet phaeton? I thought they would have gotten over it by now.
Distraction so Israel can attack Syria?
This is a definite possibility.
