Diplomatic Double Standard on Ottoman Rule Critiqued
The piece analyzes a growing Western belief that liberty advances with Christian Europe while Eastern rule under the Turks is sanctified. It questions why freedom is praised west of the Hadriatic yet crushed by power in the Ottoman sphere and mocks diplomats for supporting Ottoman governance abroad but not at home. It also notes Freeman's Turkey piece as enduring, while commenting on Eliot and Contemporary Literature.
