"Main Reasons of the Mistrust between Turkey and the US Sedat Laciner Friday , 19 October 2007 Since 2003 the American authorities have been unhappy due to the ‘accretion’ of anti-Americanism in Turkey. It is not easy for the Americans to fully understand the main reasons behind the recent Turkish scepticism towards the US and the Bush Government sometimes blamed the Turkish government for the US image in Turkey. Some neo-cons and some of the American Jewish Institutions even blamed current Turkish government of being hostile to the West and being anti-Semitic. According to these criticisms, Justice and Development Party (AK Parti) was the responsible from the accretion of the anti-Americanism among the Turks. Since the approach grounded on the hypothesis that Justice and Development Party was Islamist, charges recent matters to the government."
