Don't send the wrong signal to Turkey, warns Cock Sparrow

For a man who has shown, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he has zero understanding of Islam, this warning is pretty rich! He, with his big buddy, Bush, have cocked up BIG time in Iraq, because they tried to bring democracy to a country, nay to a region, which it is not possible to bring democracy to. Now, the same little Cock Sparrow wishes to cock up in Europe too! Now he wants the Europeans to accept his version of how events should unfold, he want us Europeans to accept Turkey into the Union. He says it would be a serious mistake for Europe, long-term, not to allow Turkey to accede. Well, have I got news for Cock Sparrow! He didn't understand Islam then (when he entered Iraq), and he doesn't understand Islam now, either. He has cocked up in Iraq; now, he wants to cock up in Europe, too! Don't listen to the man, folks! He has shown us what he understands about Islam: NOTHING, ZILCH, NIX! His views do not deserve to be listened to!
INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE: RIGA, Latvia: Prime Minister Tony Blair of Britain said Wednesday that it would be a "serious mistake" to send Turkey a negative message on its bid to join the European Union. Blair warns of sending wrong signal to Turkey on EU bid

Mark i have begun reading your book and i think the first essay is an excellent introduction.
Americans also have pompous asses.
The former president Jimmy Carter has stated that Israel is the blame for all the Middle East problems.
It is a matter of history that Jimmy Carter is the President that made it possible for Ayatollah Khomeini to assume power in Iran.
My father has told me when Jimmy Carter was challenged by Senator Edward Kennedy for president in 1980. My father told me how after Carter was renominated it was embarrassing to see Carter was chasing around Kennedy on the podium in seeking Kennedy's approval.
There is a good book about Jimmy Carter:
The Real Jimmy Carter
author is Steven F Hayward
ISBN is 0-89526-090-5 [United States]
Jimmy Carter might think Israel is the cause of Middle East problems, but Jimmy Carter has forgot how the Ottoman Empire commited genocide against 1,500,000 Armenians.
Jimmy Carter just doesn't seem to adjust to the fact that PRESIDENT Ronald Reagan beat Jimmy Carter 44 states to 6 and PRESIDENT Ronald Reagan beat Jimmy Carter's vice president Mondale 49 states to 1 state.

Thank you! I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I've been rather busy this past few days.

'Pedestrian Infidel' is a great site. You might have noticed I post there myself from time to time. Put another way, when time permits.

Carter is a fool. A nonentity. His opinions count for nothing. I mean: Who takes notice of them? Or of him, for that matter?
Got it in one! If Turkey gets in, then the EU goes from Christian majority to Muslim majority- how does that grab one's cockles?? Forgetting religion, which should be a private matter, lets go to the heart of what an Islamic Caliphate would be- blokes running a region for personal gain...gee, sounds like any old dictatorship... this is our future..if "people" like Blair and Co. get their way.
Welcome Doc!
It doesn't grab my cockles at all! The whole idea is totally absurd as far as I am concerned.
