Why Turkey Matters
Writing in the Weekly Standard, William J. Walsh explains (for the benefit of dummies like me) why an improved relationship between us and Turkey is important.

I, for one, would love to visit a friendly Turkey sometime soon. I wanted to go there in 1995 while I was in Greece, but ran out of money. But I'd love to be there in Anatolia, visiting all of the great Greek and Roman ruins, sipping that nasty coffee, and smoking hookahs with the locals.

So, yeah, let's have some Turko-American concord. Especially if it will piss off the Surly Waiter on the Elysees.

Well, Chirac's position is that Turkey isn't ready for EU membership now -- and that Bush should butt out (imagine if he or some other European leader were to call on the U.S. to get rid of its border with Mexico.) But no one, even in Turkey, wants or expects full membership before 2015 or so. In any case, not all Europeans agree with Chirac. Gerhard Schroder, for example, wants to fast-track Turkey's accession.

Anyway, you're right about Turkey being a great place to visit. I spent 10 days there last month and had a fantastic time.
