Edric O Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Acriku, get your eyes checked and look up the definition of "whining" in the dictionary. Then you may STFU. You know very well my opinion of world politics, from the Go Bush topic. I will continue to uphold my views for the good of humanity. END OF STORY.There is an inherent problem with Turkey... it's NOT in Europe! (well, at least mostly not in Europe) So how could it possibly join the European Union? ???

nampigai Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 exactly Edric, only a very small part of Turky is in Europe but again I wouldn't mind seing them in the EU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Edric, I actually took your advice and behold! 2 : to complain with or as if with a whine So by definition you are whining because you always are complaining about this, complaining about that. But onto the topic...Turkey is a member of United Nations, NATO, the Council of Europe, the OECD and an associate member of the Western European Union. So...the point that since most of Turkey isn't in Europe it is a problem to join Europe organizations is useless as it is apparent that Turkey (stated above) is already a member of a lot of European organizations.

Edric O Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 The issues I'm "whining" about are the ones that dictate the future of mankind.But maybe I should just shut up and yell "Heil Bush!", eh? ::)Hmmm, good point about Turkey. Those organizations should think about choosing better names for themselves, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty_Square Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 The turks go back where they came fromIsn't that a little racist?They had no right to invade Cyprus... so yeah, they should go back where they came from.And Cyprus people are much more civilized than Turks. So if these countries are to join the EU, Cyprus should go in first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 uhm Ex in ancient times antolia was the land of the Hitite, then came the persians, Alexander the Great, The Romans wich then moved their capital to Byzantium and recalled it Constantinople, then the Turks invaded, so 3 hundred years that's not much in the history books.

Caid Ivik Posted September 28, 2002 Author Share Posted September 28, 2002 Turkey is in NATO just as an outpost for Middle East and barrier between Russian Black Sea fleet. That's why all Russian aircraft carriers are classified as "heavy aircaft cruisers", carriers are banned to pass trough Bospor. I can say...there is still war between Greece and Turkey for Cyprus. NATO command call it "reinforcement of the southern wing". Bah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 Ex, repeat after me: "I am not an Ottoman, I'm an American." ;D Say that 1000 times and you will be well on your way to recovery! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caid Ivik Posted September 30, 2002 Author Share Posted September 30, 2002 So, Turkey ruled whole Balkan for about 500 years. Also it's a violent succesor of the Byzantine Empire, which was not only former part of european Roman Empire, but also christianic. Nation is asiatic, middle-east behavior. But look for Russia, there is too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 I don't get your last post caid ??? sorry, but are you talking about Russia being successor of the Byzantine empire or Russia in Europe? the Byzantine empire are one of those I find most interresting along with the Egyptian.

Caid Ivik Posted October 1, 2002 Author Share Posted October 1, 2002 So, both is true, but I ment that behaviour of Russian is very influenced by middle-asiatic morale (for 500 yerars Russians repelled middleasian hordes, next 500 they were conquering them), very like middle-east, which influented Byzantine. Also, russian emperors were crowned by byzant pope, whole country have much remains of this culture. Moskovian orthodox patriarch is like previous Constantinopolian most powerful between others.
