I know that Mr. Feith (another Jew, the Turkish press
didn't hesitate to note), and Ms. Rice after him, pressed
Turkish leaders on the need to challenge some of the
more dangerous rhetoric if they value the Turkey-
U.S. relationship. There is no evidence yet that they got
a satisfactory answer. Turkish leaders should understand
that the "public opinion" they cite is still reversible. But after a
few more years of riding the tiger, who knows? Much of
Ataturk's legacy risks being lost, and there won't be any of the
old Ottoman grandeur left, either. Turkey could easily
become just another second-rate country: small-
minded, paranoid, marginal and--how could it be otherwise?--friendless in America and unwelcome in
Europe.

According to Barbara Tuchman, the British view of
Turkey was much the same prior to August 1914.

Israel is not the only state that recognizes the value of buffers
and proxy wars.
