Rather curious that America - that once could understand and communicate with different cultures all over the world - suddenly has a problem only during part of the past decade.

Let's see. Turkey was one of the nations described by UT’s article. And Turkey (before George Jr) had a 90 something percent approval rating of America. In NATO, Turkey and American had some of the strongest friendships. Funny how their culture was so different that Turkey ended up being one of America's closest friends.

And then wackos came to power. Suddenly the 90+% approval rating dropped to something below 10%. Clearly there were too many cultural differences. Maybe Turks can only understand nations lead by leaders not supported by TheMercenary? Ahhh but I jest ... using reality.
