Why Europeans don´t want Turkey in EU
May 9, 2008
Ancient Troy was excavated by the famous german archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann in the 1870s´ Ottoman empire. Troy is located in today´s Turkey.
Many Americans hardly understand, why Turkey isn´t embraced as a dear member of the European family. To most Europeans modern Turkey is a cheap tourist destination, a NATO ally but also a large scale exporter of under-educated Muslims to the European welfare states. Kemal Atatürks western styled secular republic has not inspired the emigrating masses to wholeheartedly join Europe´s core values and ethics.
Instead we are witnessing self-chosen segregation, spread of sharia law in communities, extensive welfare dependence, disproportional crime rates combined with higher reproduction rates than the European aboriginals. Turkey´s contribution to the european community until now is by all means negative.
And the demographic/islamic threat is nothing compared to the frightening political power, Turkey would be able to impose on European legislation if accepted as a member of EU.
This drawing illustrates the general opinion wery well.
