Right now, I'm just hoping the pope doesn't get killed when he visits.
Long term, Turkey is a serious problem. A perfect example of what President Johnson would have labeled "better to to have them in the ten pissin' out."

They did that once around the time of the First World War and a few million Armenians turned up missing.

They also refused to let our soldiers use turdkey as a staging area to enter Iraq and it cost American soldiers lives. And they did it for a larger bribe.
Screw turdkey.

If Turkey is allowed into the EU it will accelerate the Islamification of Western Europe. I haven't followed this lately but France--already overrun with mohammedan deadbeats and vandals--opposed Turkey coming into the EU.

THat was largely due to Jacques Chiraq's scheming. He promised to help Turkey get into the EU, in exchange for Turkey refusing to let US troops go thru its territory into N. Iraq.

Maybe it's time to give Rick Warren a call. He'll fix everything. He just got back to Syria and wants us to know how well Muslims and Christians get along. You see all our intelligence and events we hear about are ALL WRONG.

Isn't this like a headline that read "The League Of Nations has accused Hitler of failing to protect Jews..."?
This is soft-pedalling the truth about Islam to the point that it becomes a lie.

"Failing"
ROTFLMAO!!!! Since when did they ever TRY to protect minorities? They murdered what? 1.5 million Armenians and another few hundred thousand Kurds? Too much.

Oh, you're saying that turkey was a victim of french scheming? Bull. Turkey has always sold itself to the highest bidder with no regard to loyalty.

I find it hard to believe that the U.S. of A. would have been outbid by France. But it's possible.
