Stressing that a new era had begun in Iraq following the war, Gul added that developments in Iraq could have negative impacts both on Turkey and the world. Guess the Turkish Press must be liberal left wing rag, and Gul a Democrat. Why didn't he say that "developments could have positive impacts both on Turkey and the world"? After all, when (not, as we all know, "if") there is a democracy there with the groups in Iraq voting and taking part in a participatory, accountable government, Turkey--the one real democracy in the middle east Islamic world--surely will be a big winner. He won't be "threatened" like he was by Saddam, will he? Gee, whatever is he thinking? He needs to sit with Bush and learn something about the mideast. Or maybe Paul Wolfowitz can visit him, and tell him what is going on.
