    Humble pie replaced by Humble Kebap?(kebob/kebab)

    Turkish delight is to be a little slice within the EU, too.Erm, star I meant.That’s some deal.

    Fun fact: the Kebab, as pictured in the cartoon, and the way it is wrapped was supposedly invented by a Turk, in Berlin.

    Unfortunately, nothing is so cut and kebabed as in the picture above:(yes, intentional sarc)Kadir Nurman: The person widely credited with inventing the ubiquitous post-pub snack has died. But the truth behind the doner kebab’s origin isn’t quite that simple

    Meanwhile, back to reality and the Turkish deal with a decidedly less than savoury Turk.

    Forgot to label a slice as “support to jihadi terrorists”; but I suppose that’s verboten to mention since that would be “pro Assad”.

    Erdogan is an arrogant, brutal, pompous, boorish asshole—-not to put too fine a point on it.

    “Dutch journalist arrested in Turkey for criticising Erdoğan”

    “Ebru Umar blocked from leaving country after facing prosecutors over tweets deemed critical of president”

    Before Erdoğan was elected, I was not against Turkey joining the EU. But man, this guy will have to leave all positions of power before I’d even countenance Turkey joining the EU. He’s a joke. And all what Cavan above said.
