#1 You know, I read last week that a man bombed a place with the exact configuration portrayed in the photo above. (jyllandsposten_bombhead)

#2 I guess the Turks have given up on joining the EU...

They're still officially demanding EU membership, and after the next elections in France (2012) and Germany (2013) they're more likely than not got gain admission.

#3 There is no Allah, religion is a lie.

He'd go on trial in Europe as well.

#4 I think a while back, the French political spectrum put its foot down and said that Turkey can forget about it for this generation, but if they can keep it together, in two or three more generations they might have a shot at EU membership.

#5 'moose,

from what I've seen the odds are better that there won't BE an EU in one generation, never mind 2 or 3.

#7 AlanC: This was then. Things change. I've long believed that the EU would become like an accelerated version of the HRE.

First split into economic blocs, the subdivided by geographical region, with the Euro government becoming increasingly meaningless. I doubt it will be a quick demise, however.

Countries don't exist for the convenience of their ruling classes or when they do they fail.

In Europe there are a multitude of nations and peoples and they are totally ignored by the ruling class on their narcissistic mission to rule over ever more of their lives.
