Turkey warns of terror wave if EU membership is rejected
EU Observer ^ | Dec 13 2004 | Lisbeth Kirk

Posted on 12/14/2004 10:10:42 PM PST by SunkenCiv

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned European Union leaders that violence from Islamic extremists could escalate if the EU rejects Turkey as a member... Turkey signed the association agreement for EU membership in 1963 and it is expected that a two-day EU summit this week will finally decide to begin formal membership talks, probably in the second half of next year... Taking Turkey’s 69 million, mainly Muslim, population into the Union is widely disputed... In Germany, leader of the Christian Social Union Edmund Stoiber told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung that his party in government would do what it takes to prevent Turkey from becoming a full member of the EU. There is also opposition in other countries. A majority of Danes would much rather see Ukraine as an EU member than Turkey... Turkey has rejected a request from the European Commission to recognise Cyprus ahead of this week’s decision on Turkey’s EU application. The Greek Cypriots, for their part, have threatened to veto Turkish EU membership. The Turks claim Greek Cypriots do not deserve recognition after they rejected a United Nations plan for the unification of Cyprus, which Turkish Cypriots supported.

Thanks for the post. This is not a surprise,and denying Turkey entrance into the EU might start a chain of events that will stretch from Turkey to Albania and through the Balkans. It's anyone's guess on what Turkey's military will do if the situation spins out of control.

650,000 in the Turkish military -- the second largest armed forces in Europe, after Russia's, and larger than Germany's and France's combined. Turkey's isn't as well equipped, but...

Indeed, that is grounds for keeping Turkey out of the EU. If the EU admits Turkey, terrorists with a Turkey passport will have free reign to travel through the EU, wreaking havoc. It's also not in the best interests of the US to have Turkey in the EU in that situation.

The EU will see real terror if they let these genocidal (Armenians in 1915) Trojan horses in.

I think we learned all we needed to know about the Turks in Feb 2003, when they refused the northern front.


When they needed our shelter from the Soviets, they were cooperative NATO allies. But when it is American v. Muslim, they are Muslims first and nothing else.

>>>

Oh, yes, but that was all because of Bush 1 and Clinton hosing them after GW1.../s

No, it's because you're either WITH US or AGIN.

"Bend over and take it or we will slit your throat!"

"It's a religion of peace, and we will kill you to prove it!"

Is anyone else getting as totally fed up with these filthy seventh-century savages as I am?

It's almost as if Turkey is threatening the Euros isn't it?

And to think they're they're the most secular Muslim nation in the world....

Imagine what the others are like.
