They think military power can make up for a lack of moral standing and ignore the economic challenges facing us. The Turkish president underdstands that we are coming on a new order in the world, too bad freaks like Mark Levin don't. (h/t The Raw Story)

The conflict in Georgia, Gül asserted, showed that the United States could no longer shape global politics on its own, and should begin sharing power with other countries.
"I don't think you can control all the world from one centre," Gül told the Guardian. "There are big nations. There are huge populations. There is unbelievable economic development in some parts of the world. So what we have to do is, instead of unilateral actions, act all together, make common decisions and have consultations with the world. A new world order, if I can say it, should emerge."
