"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached".
"Turkey should not attempt to join the European Union because it is a majority Muslim country with Muslim roots."
"Turkey should seek its future in an association of Muslim nations rather than try to join a European community with Christian roots".
"Turkey has always been in permanent contrast to Europe since the break-up of the Roman empire and linking it to Europe would be a mistake."
"In the course of history since the break-up, Turkey has always represented a different continent, in permanent contrast to Europe noting that the Ottoman Empire once threatened Vienna and fought wars in the Balkans."
