It was already said by someone wiser than me ... we had disagreements all the time, the threat the Soviet Union provided some "glue" to force an accord in these times. We don't have that anymore -- we're going to have to get used to disagrements like this.

European nations seem obsessed with "spanking" Turkey. Maybe Turkey's civil rights record poses a problem for letting them into the EU, or maybe it's a raceist policy with selective attention to their civil rights record. But NATO does have a job to do. Oh well, it may all sort itself out.
