WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States helped rescue Turkey's bid to join the EU on Monday in an unusual intervention in European affairs prompted in part by American concern the bloc was interfering in NATO.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called Turkey's Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan to prod Washington's large Muslim ally to accept negotiating terms with the EU and begin accession talks.

Turkey acquiesced at the eleventh hour after the superpower's top diplomat emphasized to Erdogan that the rules for joining the EU could not oblige him to drop his objection to Cyprus' membership in NATO, as Ankara had feared.

Sorry, pan-Islamic, Sharia enthusiasts. Your days are numbered. You ARE the weakest link... Goodbye.
