How could this be, since Turkey tries so hard to rally with the Europeans to become member of the EU? :hmm: dear Britain, dear america - you better start to finally think twice before continuing to demand that turkey should become an EU member. they would be the economically weakest ( translates into: the most expensive), but demographically strongest EU member, with more than enough influence (and tools of intimidation, and deception) to turn the whole EU against America completely.

When will people finally start to wake up? When will they wake up? When...?

BTW, turkish shelling in Northern Iraq is nothing new, but a routine since the autumn of 2003, and even before. Also, in the east of turkey, PKK groups and the turkish military clash with regularity. It's just that this is in a too hidden part fo the world, maybe, or on a scale where the world press - and the turkish press - does not take note. I know confirmation for this war constantly going on since Öcalan was arrested from first hand sources. there never has been a seize-fire in place, as the world press often has stated: it's a lie.

Needless to say this lie sounds nice and sweet in the EU's ears.

x2 What you said. And i find it unbeliviable that someone would want EU having borders with Iran, Iraq and Syria.. They have to be insane or wish evil upon Europe.
