Turkey is on the bubble .
It will slip into Islamic fundamentalism in about 30 years.

The sooner the better.

Hopefully, Turkey will have gone nuclear by then.

And can check mate Israel's zionist ambitions in that area of the world.

What ambitions are those ? Survival ?

Israel will nuke the living daylights out of the Turkish Islamic Terrorists (TITs), should Turkey go down that road.

Israel has made her intent clear by shooting dead several Turks who tried to infiltrate Israeli waters on their boat of terror.

World is in transition-phase, 'Israel's zionist ambitions' - as you call it - stand and fall with US's position within International System. The transition is towards a multi-polar world-order with a decreased US role in it. This is no science-fiction, and it will be accomplished much sooner then Americans face to admit.

As a consolation for our Israelian friends, it's not only their ambitions forced to be re-defined.
Everything without nuclear waepons as you indicated.

I think, they should have added some comical stuff in it.

Do you know 'True Lies' with Arnold Schwarzenegger?
In one scene there is a missile fired, and an Arab sits on the missile.

We should also shoot an Iraq version, in the style of "Abu-Ghraib Express".
Nice to see, that with economic development also areas like movie-making become more professional.

Another cool movie would be:

'Not without my orange jacket'

Not Without My Daughter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Abu-Ghraib Express"

[Sallow]

The Turkish Boat of Terror directly threatened Israeli territorial integrity, which is why our heroic Israeli allies shot dead the terrorist bastards.

God Bless USA and Israel in the global war on Islamic Terrorism.

We need to give Greece bombs to defend herself from the Islamic Extremists in Turkey. We also need to sign a defense agreement with Kurds and immediately establish a Kurdistan on land currently occupied by Turkey.

Turkey is a part of NATO.

That ship had no weapons and was in international waters when attacked by Israeli commandos in the dead of night. They had no right whatsoever to take action. And they put 5 bullets into the head of an American citizen.

Any other country that had done that would be in a world of hurt.

Turkey’s Referendum: A Looming Challenge to U.S. Interests?

Published on September 17, 2010 by Ariel Cohen, Ph.D.



On September 12, 2010, Turkey took an important political step away from its secular nature—and, indirectly, away from its alliance with the United States and NATO. Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan forced a nationwide referendum to accept or reject 26 constitutional amendments for an up-or-down vote. The referendum passed 58 percent to 42 percent, a victory that Erdogan claims symbolizes the forward progress of Turkish democracy. However, the referendum increased the Justice and Development Party’s (AKP) control of the judiciary, weakened separation of powers and checks and balances, and further defanged the army—the two traditional pillars of secularism ever since Mustafa Kemal Ataturk founded modern Turkey in 1923.

The United States has a strong national interest in close strategic cooperation with Turkey and needs to face the reality of Turkey’s political evolution. But instead of expressing concern about Turkey’s drift away from secularism and its concentration of political power, the Obama Administration and leaders of European powers and the European Union (EU) offered only plaudits to Prime Minister Erdogan and his incumbent AKP, which triumphed in the referendum.

The U.S. is clearly in favor of democracy, civilian control of the military, and a strong judiciary everywhere in the world. However, Erdogan cannot have his cake and eat it too: He cannot talk about democratization while centralizing political power, clamping down on the media, and preparing to change the secular constitution after the 2011 elections that he is angling to win.

Dress Rehearsal for Next Year’s Elections

The referendum was, as Berhan Simsek of the opposition CHP party said, “a poisonous pill coated with chocolate”—a reference to the manner in which the dangerous changes in the judicial system were wrapped with innocuous amendments.[1]

Symbolically, September 12 was the 30th anniversary of a military coup—a coup that both the Islamists and the Leftists deeply detested. The vote, which allowed putting the leaders of the 1980 coup on trial, was seen as an act of historic justice by Erdogan, his supporters, and their Leftist allies.

The referendum may be a dress rehearsal for the parliamentary elections next year: It will lend momentum to Erdogan’s attempt to entrench his leadership while moving Turkey away from Ataturk’s vision of secularism and modernization. After all, Erdogan famously quipped, “Democracy is like a street car. When you come to your stop, you get off.”

EU Comission

The Commission welcomes the approval, by the Turkish people, of the Constitutional reforms in the referendum which took place on 12 September. It demonstrates the continued commitment of Turkish citizens to reforms in view of enhancing their rights and freedoms. As we consistently said in the past months, these reforms are a step in the right direction as they address a number of long-standing priorities in Turkey's efforts towards fully complying with the accession criteria.

Independent from examining the degree of truth from above quoted statement, these things are nothing for USA or 'Heritage Foundation' to decide.

'Power to the people'. You've a problem with that concept, it's your problem, not ours.
