turkey as authentic. i think, you know, you couldn't, you know, you can put this, this world view, you know, throughout the muslim world and, you know, you take your pick of state department or, or executive branch, you know, white house folks who, i mean, look, turkey was the first place that obama stopped on his tour that ended up in cairo. and he made a big deal to go there to a mosque. >> that's fine. >> that's fine. >> that's fine. >> but i think, i think he is, i mean, lee smith had a great column in tablet where he spoke about obama's background as, you know, as a leftist and just that, you know, maybe he reflects on anti-americanism is maybe too strong a word, but just that third worldism that comes reflexively from him, and sees that as a, you know, legitimating movement, you know? in constant distinction to, you know, a secular turkish democracy. >> i think, yeah, it's as plausible a theory as i've heard. what puzzles me is i could understand the policy decision to say, well, this is the way it'

armenia doesn't require turkey to recognize, ah, what they call the genocide or, and turkey doesn't ask armenia anyway to change its policy in this manner. so, and the turkey-armenia border was open prior to the karabakh land problem in the '90s. so, i think is why the problems keeps, ah, where the roadblock is. >> the u.s. has more interests in azerbaijan because of the energy sources than armenia. but becae there's a much larger armenian population here in the u.s. you only hear about the armenia perspective and not the azerbaijan perspective. the comment that was made about karabakh, the conflict between this sort of aggressive behavior on the part of armenia vis-à-vis azerbaijan, nobody knows about that, but everybody knows about armenia's issues with turkey relative to the events that took place, you know, a long time ago. >> david, the united states has its own relationships with iran and with turkey that deal with the u.s. and those countries, but how do those countries' dealings with the caucasus affect their relationship with the united states? >> in the case of iran, for examp

he and wilson talked about getting turkey out of the war. and wilson sent morgenthau on a mission and ostensibly to palestine to check on the condition during the war but really morgenthau was supposed to meet with turks to talk secretly about getting out of the war the reason why the american could do this well because the united states and turkey were not at war and have not declared war upon each other. the united states was at war with germany and austria. not turkey. chaim weizmann back in london learned about the expedition. he stormed into the foreign office to protest now june june 1916 -- 1917 the foreign office calmed him down and had come to oppose the morgenthau mission because at first it was favorable but it had to be kept secret. if people learned about it than they might begin to think that britain was not confident it could win the war and unfortunately, this mission was not kept secret it turned out more gets out could not keep a secret to save his life which is why somebody like chaim weizmann could learn about it in londo

they wanted total victory over turkey. the institution of a british protectorate there and then integration into palestine for jewish people. the arab people believed, right, that they would have to help defeat the ottoman empire and that they would have their own independent kingdom. so they, too, like the zionists were unambiguously, unalterably opposed to britain negotiating a separate peace during the war with the ottoman empire. who in great britain favored the separate peace? well, there were a small number of british miss rims -- muslims in the country. they lacked political influence, they lacked connections. but they i felt deeply -- they felt deeply that it was a tragedy for great britain whose empire included 100 million muslim subjects to be at war with the greatest muslim empire, the ottoman empire. and so they were in favor of a separate peace. then there were what i call in the book british turkophiles. these were british people who believed that their country should return to britain's traditional policy, o

administration to place a part of the missile defense radar in georgia rather than putting it in turkey well is this proposal acceptable because georgia is not a nato country well for the moment we're not close within nato to deciding where we're going to put radars were at the very very beginning of the process of determining what this missile defense program will look like and part of determining what it will look like is determining what we will do in cooperation between our system and a russian system. one of the best i would say russian military analysts i'm among journalists among my colleagues and a good friend of mine i was under gult he wrote i quote the biggest problem with this sexual idea is that nato has little faith in the ability of russia's military defense system and quit is this the reason why nato has rejected the so-called sectoral missile defense proposed by my moscow natives approach to missile defense and i hope it is clear to our russian interlocutors is not based on any different platform than the same platform that is sustained the alliance since it was founded

in turkey, in 1922, there was a military revolution, a nationalist revolution followed by many, many years of military rule, political rule with the military in the background. just five or six years ago, the a.k., a moderate islamic party, came to power and they made a deal with the military. they said, you leave us alone, don't come in and have another coup, and we'll be careful not to move too fast and respect secular institutions and other parties. so far, though it's a delicate dance that, has worked well and that might be a model for the egyptian military which is going to hang around long after the elections are there but which may be willing to step back and be a kind of guarantor and conservator of fair politics but not engaged in those politics. that's not a solution we like in the west where we have civilian hodgeeminy over the military but it may be a solution that has worked in turkey and may work in egypt. tavis: i have two very important questions. number one, what you do say about the perceived if not real hypocrisy of our government? you mentioned libya and egypt. a

run the country and actually help set the stage for the moderate islamist government that we see in turkey today or do we go down the path that we've seen so often in pakistan's history or you see the military a centrally come in claim that it will usher in a democratic age and then just stay in power. egypt is not in the kind of crisis that it was in when saddam. assumed the reins of power from nasser with all of the turbulence in seventy three war in the lead up to camp david. egypt seems to be in terms of the spirit of its people prepared to enter into a kind of democratic phase of its history and egypt is a very democratically inclined society the demonstrations that we've seen over the past several weeks here really similar to the mass demonstrations that took place against british rule in one nine hundred ninety and forced the british to grant egypt independence so i think the army at this point can see i should say the whole military in egypt can see. the tremendous determination tenacity and. effectiveness of egyptian mass democratic expression and i would suspect that they would w

the common arguments is gee sometimes you supply both sides well where we have such as greece and turkey we haven't had conflict between greece and turkey since world war two which is basically when we started working with both of their militaries similarly in the case of egypt and israel. after the seventy three war when when egypt basically said change suppliers from the soviet union qua russia to the united states again we've had a stabilizing influence i think on both sides it's very hard to find much in the way of at least u.s. arms used against anybody over the last thirty years which is a pretty forty years was a pretty good record you know i like to say u.s. weapons work best when they're not used to the whole purpose of selling weapons to a large degree is so that a country that has them doesn't get attacked by anybody and one hopes they in turn are are aggressive and they're comment on ok ok paul i'd like to go to me and i don't want to jump ahead here but we might see egypt switch sides in one form or another we saw iran's change sides in one nine hundred seventy nine so a lot
