#1 It's sad when the best Islam can do towards a democracy (in Pakistan and Turkey) require constant coups to keep from devolving into a 6th century theocracy.

Sad but the most pro-American folks are those that went through hell first and realized that systems don't work (Eastern Europe for example). Maybe it's best in the long, long, run if Turkey falls. We'll get quick border wars with Greece over Cypress and a few other islands. Possible battle for Constantinpole then Turkey will fade into third world poverty and dispair.
