In the United States, there is no project so audacious for which people cannot be found to guarantee the cost and find the working expenses.

It is beneficial for Turkish democracy that not all religious conservatives are united under one banner.

Israel is the agent and surrogate of the United States and as such is treated entirely differently from every other country in the region. How can anyone expect Iran to accept that it is right for Israel to have nuclear weapons while itself being disallowed?
