The only thing holding Turkey together right now is a fanatically patriotic homogenous ethnic group. How well can a country Turkey accommodate the level of multiculturalism associated with joining the EU?

Where did you get the idea that Turkey is ethnically pure. There are 17 languages being spoken there. Jesus!


You beat me to that comment. There are at least 30 languages, by the way.
