" It also supports the Serbian claim to Bosnia, the Republika Serbska."

The claim to Bosnia or to Kosovo (or both)? But I hardly see this as anti-Western. One could argue that not minding the fact that Albanians immigrated to Serbia's Kosovo and then wrenched it out of Serbia is 'anti-Western'.
I see the West as increasingly anti-Western :)

By the way, there are a great many Turks who are about as European as Syrians. I remember an interview from many years ago with young Turks in a German high-school boasting about how the German boys are terrified of them and how they beat up the German boys at school. One would imagine this is not uncommon. I also remember after the Paris attacks at the nightlife spot, there was a 'moment of silence' in honor of the victims at a football stadium in Turkey and this was the loudest moment of silence in history, the stadium was thick with boos and whistles. This is worth finding on youtube if you haven't seen it yourself.
