Turkish TV Plums The Depths

Turkey is at it again, complaining that their national honour has been abused by Israel and that they must have an apology

Now as we are well aware, Turkey considers that every country must acknowledge Turkey as a world power and leader, this despite the fact that Turkey continues to drift into becoming an Islamic state.

The row was over the Turkish Ambassador being made to sit on a little chair by the Israeli Foreign Minister while being asked about a Turkish TV program. This row over the seating has deflected attention from these TV shows, which is a shame because they are very telling on the state of Turkey.

First there is the fictional film and television series 'Valley of the Wolves', which is very popular in Turkey. Apart from being anti-American, and anti-Christian, it also depicts Israeli intelligence operatives running operations to kidnap babies and convert them to Judaism. And last October, Israel was forced to complain over another Turkish series, which depicted Israeli soldiers killing Palestinians. In one clip, an Israeli soldier shoots dead a smiling young girl at close range.

We are always forced to remark about what sort of Europe do the supporters of Turkeys entry into the EU want? These programs would be illegal in all the EU countries, just as TV shows showing Turks bayoneting Kurdish children, or Anti Muslim programmes would be ............

If Turkey can't meet EU norms, we shouldn't be surprised, because they are not a European country.
