Obama now screwing victims in Sudan too.

Re: Obama now screwing victims in Sudan too.

I think it's a little too late for that considering the US military has presence/occupies 130 countries.

There is no such thing as 'too late' when it comes to making logical foreign policy decisions. That's like shooting yourself in the head because it's 'too late' after you've shot yourself in the kneecap.

That's what people are trying to stop. What's your point?

Well whatever happens the meeting will be one military dictator meeting another, they will probably discuss strategies on oppressing the minorities of their countries, and perhaps the Turks will hand over the blueprint to Sudan of the Armenian Genocide to help the Sudan government 'solve' its 'people problem'.

Deep in your heart, you don't give a damn about minorities in Turkey. You wish for Turkey to retain its authoritarian vestiges, just so you can maintain your pathological dislike of "The Turk". Typical cognitive dissonance.

I could just say fail based on my nationality but I won't bother. I already have said things that are hopeful for the future of Turkey, those hopes though are based upon Turkey, Azerbaijan and the rest of the region (including Armenia) cleaning up their act and working together*, that means ending the epidemic corruption, as well as Turks and Azeri's giving up their genocide denial and territorial claims on Artasakh and Armenia proper.

Also human rights violations is a big one too which can only be helped if Turkey and Azerbaijan ascend from dark age human rights to the 21st century. By all the human rights reports I have read by Amnesty International and others Armenia is better placed than Turkey or Azerbaijan to lead the way in the region in regards to better human rights for their citizens.

Gul says Istanbul will not enforce the ICC arrest warrant against Bashir


Turkey defends Sudan leader visit

Page last updated at 17:23 GMT, Friday, 6 November 2009

Turkish President Abdullah Gul has accused the EU of interfering after Ankara was asked to reconsider an invitation to the president of Sudan.

Omar al-Bashir has been indicted for war crimes by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

But Mr Gul said he was invited to a summit of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC), not for bilateral talks with Turkish officials.

Turkey, which has applied for EU membership, does not recognise the ICC.

It says it has no plans to arrest Mr Bashir, who is due to attend an OIC economic summit in Istanbul on Sunday and Monday.

Turkey insists it is not shifting away from its traditionally close ties to the West.

But the BBC's Jonathan Head, in Istanbul, says the country is certainly choosing some controversial new partnerships.

The visit by the Sudanese president comes fresh on the heels of the Turkish prime minister's groundbreaking state visit to Iran in October, when Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared that country's nuclear programme to be entirely peaceful.

Mr Bashir's visit to Turkey will be his third in the past 18 months, but his first since the ICC arrest warrant was issued in March.

A coalition of Turkish human rights groups is protesting against the visit, our correspondent says.

They have accused the government of double standards for condemning Israel over its actions in Gaza, and then hosting a president who is blamed for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians in Darfur.

Accused of double standards? Pot meet kettle, kettle meet pot. The west is one to talk.
