I'm preaching this since years, but not many listen, because it is not what they want to hear. One can even refer to quotes and statements and explanations by responsible Muslim leaders and Turkish politicians themselves - clever know-it-alls in the West still insist they know it better than the Turks themselves and that they know for sure that the Turks do not mean things the way they tell them.

I agree with you. What i really don't understand though is why Europeans turn a blind eye to the whole thing? If they believe they know better than the Turks then they must be stupids. Turkish politicians seek ways of satisfying the interests of their own country. If you ask me, they are doing just fine. The problem is that Europe should do the same. Diplomacy and politics must obey to the Newtonian principle of Action-Reaction. I think that Europe lacks both parts of the equation, at least for the time being.
Also, I do not agree with the results of the study you mentioned. They seem quite naive: "Muslim = bad behaviour, Christian = good behaviour"?

But then again, maybe, i did not understand what you wanted to say.
Could you elaborate, please? Any links in English, s'il vous plait?
