THE TURKS ARE COMING

Speaking of the Agonist, he also had this revealing map of our support in Europe for war in Iraq. It’s mostly spot-on, although the Irish seem to be leaning towards support. Also, the Turks should be purple – they’re not neutral, just unwilling to support war until they are certain it’s almost here, for pragmatic reasons that are far more sympathetic than those of, say, the Belgians. Not only will they eventually support us, but unlike the French & Germans, their help will be militarily crucial. And reports Friday indicate that their support is coming out in the open now that we are clearly going to war.
