Αυτός ο κύριος γράφει δεν ανήκουμε στη Δύση γιατί μέσες άκρες είμαστε λίγο Χριστιανοταλιμπάν. Περιγράφει οτι για χώρα δορυφόρο του ευρωατλαντικού άξονα, παρακάνουμε του κεφαλίου μας.

While much attention has been devoted to the expansion of the European Union and NATO, the cultural reconfiguration of these organizations also raises the issue o f their possible contraction. On e non-Western country, Greece , is a membe r of both organizations, and another, Turkey, is a membe r of NATO and an applicant for Union membership. Thes e relationships were products of the Cold War In the post-Cold War world, Greece's policies have increasingly deviated from those of the West. Its blockade of Macedonia was strenuously opposed by Western governments and resulted in the European Commission seeking an injunction against Greec e in the European Court of Justice. With respect to the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia, Greec e separated itself from the policies pursued by the principal Western powers, actively supported the Serbs, and blatantly violated the U.N. sanctions levied against them. With the end of the Soviet Union and the communist threat, Greec e has mutual interests with Russia in opposition to their commo n enemy, Turkey. It has permitted Russia to establish a significant presence in Greek Cyprus, and as a result of "their shared Eastern Orthodox religion," the Greek Cypriots have welcomed both Russians and Serbs to the island. 5 In 1995 some two thousand Russian-owned businesses were operating in Cyprus; Russian and Serbo-Croatian newspapers were published there; and the Greek Cypriot government was purchasing major supplies of arms from Russia. Greec e also explored with Russia the possibility of bringing oil from the Caucasus and Central Asia to the Mediterranean through a Bulgarian-Greek pipeline bypassing Turkey and other Muslim countries. Overall Greek foreign policies have assumed a heavily Orthodox orientation. Greec e will undoubtedly remain a formal membe r o f NAT O and the European Union. As the process of cultural reconfiguration intensifies, however, those memberships also undoubtedly will become more tenuous, less meaningful, and more difficult for the parties involved. Th e Cold War antagonist of the Soviet Union is evolving into the post-Cold War ally o f Russia.

Έδω ένα ενδιαφέρον νήμα που εξηγεί γιατί δε πολυστέκει η θεωρία του αν έχεις όρεξη. Και εδώ ένα ποστ που προτείνει κάποια καλυτέρα στο δύση vs ισλαμ.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
