#4  Since the whole point of the EU-Turkey talks is to string the Turks along while putting ever more obstacles in the way of their ascension to the Union, can someone explain to me how is this going to help relations?

#3  What if for a change it would be the Muslims who took a step towards the West? Like paying reparations to Armenians and other people who suffered under Muslim rule, eunuking husbands of burka-wearing women or by strapping explosives to imams preaching Jihad.

#2  To grant it would prove to a skeptical Muslim world that when Europe talks about embracing diversity, it means exactly what it says.
In other words, we'll kill ourselves, we mean it! What drivel. Since when does the Muslim world care about diversity? They only care about unity: Dar al-Islam (which is what Europe would soon become if Turkey were admitted).
