Turkey is NOT an Arab state.
Turks are not Arabs.
They do not speak Arabic, they speak Turkish ( a language related to Finnish

In fact a great deal of Islamic political History deals with the struggle
between Turkish and Arab control.
SO lets try again - anyone who knows what an Arab is -:
> can you name a Arab state , other than pre gulf war Iraq, that doesn't
> define itself as an Islamic state? that doesn't give stronger rights to
> Muslims, than non-Muslims?
