MNI, I have tried to take you and your side-kick seriously. But now it seems that it was a waste of time. If I am wrong, present your case. Otherwise find another place to play. C Kahn

MNI, Re: I don't take the Rice passage as serious as you do, I think in this case Turkey is good merely for rhetoric reasons - and nothing else. 'Turkey' is used like a 'joker' in a card game, because not much is known about the conditions there by the average listener. It is exotic, it is unknown, it seems to present a chance to the listener, and the speaker shows she knows the way to evaluate the chance once she has her way. In this way the mentioning creates hope. Creating hope, and linking it to herself, is the best thing an opposition politician who soonly wants to become a government politician can do. If we recall US President John F. Kennedy delivering his Berlin speech on June 26th, 1963, I guess you'd play it down as well as 'wishful rethoric'? Yet, less than 30 years later, Kennedy's assertive statement materialized but perhaps 1989 was annus horribilis for you.... You definitely have no sense of History, no vision, and, most likely,... no Turkish friends! nara.gov You remind me of Don Quixote --always hunting down ghostly windmills....
