However, I disagree .. this isn't about what we will take .. it will be about bailing their butts out once again.

Turkey's denial into the EU...is due to 3 key items. Their economy is either completely robust or completely dead...no one can be sure of anything. Their human rights record is zero, and they don't really care to fix it. And finally...Greece, who had a inside ticket to the EU...simply won't vote to allow them in.
As for the fears of Jihad...a strange change in German state-run tv news in the past two weeks. Suddenly they are examining the various Muslim protests and organizations...and actually asking questions. They had a reporter at a major rally in North Germany...who asked participants of the rally if Saddam killed thousands of his own people...which is now a virtual fact...and the participants just looked away...not wanting to answer. After about 5 of these questions...the rally organizers hopped in front of the reporter and denied them access to the protestors.
Alot of questions are coming up now about the money (which is partially drug tinted), the use of violence to bring teenage boys into the Muslim world, and the ultimate goals of these Muslim organizations. I think the right-wing elements of Germany also have an impact on the future...they are coming back...and need a whipping boy (no Jews left...so the Muslims will likely be next).

>> Turkey's denial into the EU...is due to 3 2 key items. 1- The Europeans have a lot of racist in them. 2- Greece has territorial designs on Turkish soil. I really do not want to join the EU. Even though there are many reasons in favor. As far as Jihad, how many terrorists did they give asylum to this year? They deserve a dead reckoning.

The development of those complex ties between the Arab-Muslim world and the EU was, at its core, conditioned by an anti-Israeli and anti-American policy, the Arab ambition being to detach Europe from its Atlantic ally. As Palestinian and Islamic terrorism developed, the EU anxious to save its growing and multiple interests in the Muslim world accused Israel and U.S. policy of provoking it.

BIG THANKS for this ping...this is a VERY informative article for a lot of us
"fly-over country" Americans that:
1. Support Dubya and the US military and our Coalition Of The Willing in liberating Iraq
AND
2. Still struggle to make sense of the intrigues of the Middle East
Additionally...
as an "Average Joe" here in the USA, I thank you for the informative articles you post
and/or ping freerepublic members to help us to get a clearer picture of
the world beyond our borders.
This is one of my MANY very positive feelings on this THANKSGIVING DAY...
which is and should by right-of-birth should be an expression of every human being.
That's my very inarticulate expression of the belief of the founder of this imperfect,
but striving country.

EURABIA
IIRC, some kind freeper said that Bat Ye'or was the writer who coined
the term "Eurabia" for the growing infiltration of Continental Europe by
a tsunami of Muslims.
akbaines, I'd have to search the archives, but I'm pretty sure that this article
posting is not the first "homerun" you've hit.
Well done...and carry on!

Author's note: Dhimmitude derives from the surrender of the Christian clergy and political leaders to the Muslim jihad armiesSometimes the surrender is complete and the Christians convert to Islam. Bosnia-Herzegovina for example.

...a strange change in German state-run tv news in the past two weeks. Suddenly they are examining the various Muslim protests and organizations...and actually asking questions. I noticed a subtle but marked change in the UK papers during Bush's state visit a few weeks ago. I was just scanning the articles coming out of the UK, not really caring what they had to say because I thought it would all be so predictable, but I noticed that even the leftist papers (Guardian et.al.) had toned down their rhetoric and even had faint praise for our president. My thought is that it may have something to do with the bombing in Turkey, i.e. the Euros realize that the Islamofascists aren't just going after Fortress America, they're going after any easy target that's even faintly scented with Westernism. In a nutshell, I get the impression that the oh-so-worldly Europeans are just now realizing that they screwed up, and screwed up badly, and that "interesting" times are ahead of them.

"It's a small world, after all".
As I've been typing, I'm listening to a holiday radio broadcast of a pre-recorded
tape by radio show host Michael Medved, titled "The Secret History of Christmas".
Medved reviews the influence of Holland in shaping the concept of "Santa Claus"...
all the fascinating stuff we never get in school.
Have a good one!

I think the right-wing elements of Germany also have an impact on the future...they are coming back...and need a whipping boy (no Jews left...so the Muslims will likely be next). In parts, I can confirm this. It is true, that the security agencies are investigating the connections between (Neo-)Nazis and extremist Muslims. There are more and more contacts, and the common enemies are the US and Israel.
But I cannot confirm the claim that the number of Nazis has risen, such cannot be concluded from the statistics of the domestic intelligence. However, the Nazis are becoming more active than they´ve been the last years.

Here we got 'Sinterklaas', which was brought over by Dutch settlers to the US, and changed into 'Santa Claus'. Sinterklaas is a saint ('sint' is Dutch for saint) and he brings presents for the children.
