A Thanksgiving for Christians, Jews and Muslims alike

As a university student in America I always enjoyed the four day Thanksgiving holiday tradition. On Thanksgiving day, the fourth Thursday of every November, Americans give thanks to God, one's own, for the blessings and mercies throughout the year. It's the holiday season most likely to see members of the family come together from the four corners of the country and the world. And of course Thanksgiving dinner without turkey would be unthinkable. Like or hate it, turkey will feature on every Thanksgiving table across the country, and its delicious end will be accompanied with the thanks of an entire nation for the blessings it received during the year!

'Turkey’s wrong turn' by STEVE HUNTLEY Chicago Sun-Times

Anyone looking for hopeful signs of the role democratically elected Islamist governments might play in international affairs will find disappointment in how Turkey irresponsibly exploited the Israel-Hamas fighting with bluster, lies and fanatical characterizations of the Jewish state.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called Israel a “terrorist state” and accused it of “ethnic cleansing” when its only offense is defending its citizens against rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip by the terrorist organization Hamas.

The Exclusive Economic Zone of Cyprus

"Turkey" today threatened Russia and Italy about participating in Cyprus's EEZ. "Turkey" refuses to see what the rest of the world sees: a UN, EU member. Turks as a result, ethnic Turks, believe the world has a problem. And they are right. "Turkey" is fast becoming the world's number one problem!

Ps. The bit of sea on the top right of the map could very well be Kurdish EEZ by end of 2013!

Turkey's Kurds & Cyprus' tCypriots

As either unitary state or federation solutions are discussed as replacements to Cyprus' 1960 and Turkey's 1923 unworkable constitutions, should we abide by "if a right is a right too many for Turkey's Kurdish community (circa 23% of population) then that right is a right too many for Cyprus' tCypriot community too (circa 15%), and vice versa." Is the adoption of this fair logic the catalyst to securing just solutions for both UN countries.
