players, and news in blackface.
During his visit to Turkey, U.S. President Obama laid a wreath at Ataturk's grave including a overly gracious notation in a book commemorating his visit to the grave.
And, he also spoke to the Turkish Parliament including referencing that there were Turkish basketball players in the NBA and fully embracing Islam and Ataturk.
"And as a basketball fan, I've even noticed that Hedo Turkoglu and Mehmet Okur have got some pretty good basketball games."
Turkish media rewarded Mr. Obama for his respect to their country and people by running the nightly broadcast with a newscaster in black face.
There was also a reported attempt on Obama's life there. http://www.nation.co.ke/News/-/1056/558322/-/u3slby/-/

Which just begs the question, if you embrace Turkey and they insult you and try to kill you, then how can it be in your national interests to call them an ally?
