The Turks, under the Muslim Brotherhood linked AKP and the Fascist Erdogan, have become a force for trouble. At one time, via it’s membership in NATO and alliance with Israel, Turkey was a pillar of stability. Now it is angling itself as a leader of Dar Al Islam. As their Ottoman forefathers, they are in Jihadi mode and have Israel in their sights. Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan is now threatening to go to Gaza in the next Flotilla and will have Turkish warships escort. This is a recipe for a conflict between a NATO nation and Israel. Mark Steyn gives a great analysis of the situation..
Foreign policy “realists,” back in the saddle since the Texan cowboy left town, are extremely fond of the concept of “stability”: America needs a stable Middle East, so we should learn to live with Mubarak and the mullahs and the House of Saud, etc. You can see the appeal of “stability” to your big-time geopolitical analyst: You don’t have to update your Rolodex too often, never mind rethink your assumptions. “Stability” is a fancy term to upgrade inertia and complacency into strategy. No wonder the fetishization of stability is one of the most stable features of foreign-policy analysis.
Unfortunately, back in what passes for the real world, there is no stability. History is always on the march, and, if it’s not moving in your direction, it’s generally moving in the other fellow’s. Take this “humanitarian” “aid” flotilla. Much of what went on — the dissembling of the Palestinian propagandists, the hysteria of the U.N. and the Euro-ninnies — was just business as usual. But what was most striking was the behavior of the Turks. In the wake of the Israeli raid, Ankara promised to provide Turkish naval protection for the next “aid” convoy to Gaza. This would be, in effect, an act of war — more to the point, an act of war by a NATO member against the State of Israel.

Erdogan and the AKP are a menace who seek to make Turkey at the forefront of Jihad. They are Neo-Ottoman and we must be aware of what we are dealing with.
Update: The Imam involved in the 9/11 ground zero Islamic Center is also linked to the Gaza Flotilla.
The imam behind a proposed mosque near Ground Zero is a prominent member of a group that helped sponsor the pro-Palestinian activists who clashed violently with Israeli commandos at sea this week.
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a key figure in Malaysian-based Perdana Global Peace Organization, according to its Website.
Perdana is the single biggest donor ($366,000) so far to the Free Gaza Movement, a key organizer of the six-ship flotilla that tried to break Israel’s blockade of the Hamas-run Gaza Strip Monday.

This proves the reason for the Cordoba House is to celebrate what is perceived as an Islamic victory.
Update II: Iran is now offering to use the Revolutionary Guard Navy to escort ships to Gaza. This would be a clear act of war.
