The EU considers the Turks good enough to pick the cotton, but not worthy of sharing a Mint Julep with. Gee, I wonder why they hate us?

I don't want the Turks in the EU for different reasons. Until the Haggai Sophia is returned to the Orthodox.

But I am pretty partisan about that.

Why does Turkey want to join the EU?

I'm sure that Turkey will do for Europe what Mexico, Ecuador, and Guatemala are doing for the U.S.

Why Europe would want to encourage that is quite another matter.

Samuel Huntington ["Clash"] provided a different analysis. Cross-civilizational entities either do not work at all, or work only under duress, and even then badly. Look at all the trouble NATO took with Greeks and Turks...
