Still in NATO, and officially still interested in EU membership - I think the Turks will have to get off the fence pretty soon - at least in time for the next ME shooting war.. |

D. Bunker (OP) 12/08/2009 08:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am more interested in the probability that this confirms a planned major offensive by Hezbollah given the following: "...the attack was meant to avenge the killing of senior Hezbollah operative Imad Mughniyeh - who died in a car bombing in Damascus in February 2008." While this occurred over a month ago, I still believe the intended revenge attack is central to their plans. :savetata: Favorite Quote - "I just fucking love outer space, it has all those planets and stars and shit." - Mister Obvious 2009 |

Turkey is complicated. The struggle between Islamists and secularists will continue for the foreseeable future. |
