SECULARISM, TURKISH STYLE

" think most of you know that Turkish propaganda has been in hyper-mode lately, especially directed at the US and Americans in general. This is not, I repeat, it is not, because Turkey is getting ready to celebrate the Fourth of July.

It is because, for one thing, the Turkish Foreign Minister, Abdullah Gul, is due to depart for his US visit tomorrow. For another, Turkey has had a serious case of the hives since the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom. You would think that since the US and Turkey are such fine allies, with such a long-standing relationship, that Turkey would be happy to have the US share in its regional sphere of influence but, alas, it was not to be, and this is the reason why there has been so much hype about the Turkish-American relationship. It's all a matter of control."

You have no idea! There are many that would just love to have just that, people like judge More and the crazies that follow him everywhere.
