Jack Straw says we must embrace Turkey

Jack Straw says we must embrace Turkey into Europe to show that western and Islamic culture can live together harmoniously. He said:

By welcoming Turkey we will demonstrate that Western and Islamic cultures can thrive together as partners in the modern world - the alternative is too terrible to contemplate.

Complete and utter multicultural bollocks. Admitting Turkey to Europe will not stop Islamic militancy, nor would its non-admission bring about World War 3. The League of Nations and UN were founded on the basis that if everyone is joined together into an organisation, they won't want to kill each other. This, of course, doesn't work. Iraq, for example, is a member of the UN. Turkey, Greece and Cyprus are UN members. Palestine and Israel are in the UN. India and Pakistan are in the UN. They would all happily bomb each other into oblivian if they thought they could get away with it.

Admitting Turkey into the EU would be disasterous, not because of cultural reasons, but because they are unbelievably poor compared to the rest of Europe. What benefit is there on admitting Turkey to the EU that would outweight the billions of pounds of subsidies that they would taking out every year?

I have a feeling that it's going to go ahead anyway though once the Demon Headmaster hypnotises the other EU leaders ...
