Turkey already is part of NATO, and already blew its chance to become part of the EU, in part because of its new found affinity for Islamic extremism. If anything, they should kick Turkey out of NATO and let it stew in its own juices, instead of giving it access to information that it’s providing to Iran.

I am actually happy Iran and China are working together. This way Iran is forced to keep the Straight of Hormuz open. Closing it would be the last thing China wants to happen.

Now this would be a good opportunity for Israel to put a bit of pressure on Iran. Tell them in the UN that any attack on Israel will prompt an immediate closing of the Straight.

Of course Obama already looked at that contingency and offered China a port in Canada so they could get oil from the tar sands. Only at the cost of shutting down Keystone.

since the rationale for Turkey in NATO seems to have
dissapeared with the Soviet Union, maybe its time
to abolish NATO and pull our people and planes out
of there.. Why do we still have bases at Adana and Incirlik?
