Hello Tom

I am really sorry but as far as you are interested in the international politics you shoudl be more epistemological in oyur assumptions

1. Like, how do you base your argument in tems of saying that the Europe is the most educated continet inthe world? What do you mean by that?

2. Strategic alliance and the place of Turkey place more important role than Russia. Russia is only a very important ally in terms of energy supplies. However as as whole Europe is struggling though its slow paced and rather old past and trying to revamp itself via Lisbon Agenda.

Howver the midterm review of Agenda prepared by Mr Kok has already drafted a very bleak and gloomy picture . This means that Europe by itself cannot do much, but needs a lot more dynamism within itself. the market is old, system is old and social structure is slumping. The failure of the Europeans to concert a single voice on security and warfare makes Europe even more fragemented. USA was there when war was outbreaking next door at Bosnia.

What I mean is that your article misses the substance on the grounds as below

1. What do you mean by Europe?

2. How do you define Europe?

3. How do you define things like civilisation, education and civilised?

4.What is your judgment of mid easterners raping women?is it that the raping came to Europe with mid easterners? Well, check the rape cases in UK an other EU or European countries?Along with East Europeans

5. Do a bit more reading of diaspora, migration, ethnic exculsion. Trouble makers in finland- well why do you think? i wonder why they more trouble? Please give me a reasonable explanation.

6.those silly all covering curtains on them seems quite old fashioned. Even we Europeans have critical look for the USA. I bet you can't find a European having sympathy for Palestinians after 9/11 when all news broadcasts showed motion picture from the West Bank where people were singing, dancing, doing that wild Allahu Akbar -thing, and generally enjoying the terrorist attacks of the day. It is sad indeed how media makes us think something. We think that Turks and same with them and Turks think that we are cruel nazis trying to squeeze juice from them and leave them when they're useless.--this is the most uneducated part of your article.

Sorrry, but coming from an educated background and well civilsed country and a modern Finland I would have expected more educated guesses Tom. ...well. then can I just say europe is uneducated!!!!
