Headquarters of Turkey’s efforts to join EU in building seized from Orthodox Christian community

Dec 12, 2009 12:05 am By Marisol Seibold

The irony is most likely completely lost on the EU. “Turkey prepares to join EU in a building confiscated from the Orthodox,” by Nat da Polis for AsiaNews, December 11: Istanbul (AsiaNews) – Unbelievable but true: the headquarters of the Secretariat for the entry of Turkey into the European Union is a building confiscated from […]

Turks irked by Oz genocide monument

Dec 7, 2009 3:52 am By Robert Spencer

ANSAmed, November 30 (thanks to Insubria): (ANSAmed) – ANKARA, NOVEMBER 30 – Turkish authorities will be announcing their decision in the coming days over whether or not to repatriate […]

Malignant Turks refuse to play Israeli national anthem for Israeli chess tournament winner, who stands defiant

Nov 24, 2009 10:24 am By Robert Spencer

Defiant and victorious Marsel Efroimski, a 13-year-old Israeli chess prodigy, yesterday became the Girls’ Under-14 World Chess Champion when she won the Gold Medal for her age group at the World Youth Chess Championships held in Turkey.

Fitzgerald: Why is Turkey in NATO?

Oct 18, 2009 6:33 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

Quaere: Why is Turkey in NATO? Is Turkish membership of any value, or is it a danger to the effectiveness of NATO as that organization must necessarily turn its attention away from Russia to the threat from Islam worldwide, and especially to the threat, foreign and domestic, that Muslims who take Islam seriously pose to […]

Turkey threatens to fine Israel for delay in delivery of military vehicles

Oct 15, 2009 4:33 am By Robert Spencer

“Israel said the delay was caused by the difficulty in the strengthening of Heron engines to enable local Aselsan-made electro-optical payloads…” The delay ought to have been caused by a clear-eyed recognition on Israel’s part that it should not be supplying military hardware to an increasingly Sharia-oriented Turkey. An update on this story. “‘Turkey may […]

Israel: Hmmm, maybe these arms sales to Turkey aren’t such a good idea

Oct 12, 2009 5:10 am By Robert Spencer

Wise move, in light of this. Why should rapidly Islamizing Turkey still be treated as a secular, pro-Western nation, when it is increasingly behaving like just the opposite? “Israel rethinks arms sales to Turkey,” by Herb Keinon and Yaakov Katz in the Jerusalem Post, October 12 (thanks to Dan): While Israel kept a low official […]

Sep 22, 2009 2:53 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald
