So I was reading in the NYT that Turkeys Prime Minister has been meeting with the opposition over the plans to destroy a famous square in Istanbul to build a mall and a mosque nearby. The plan will be to wait until the Courts there decide whether or not Prime Ministers Erdoğan's plan is legal and, if so, to then hold a referendum on it in the city of Istanbul. Personally I hope that this means an end to the protests there. The Prime Minister seems a bit strange and has definitely mishandled the situation. |

"close to resolution".....lolno. These riots are rooted in much deeper problems in Turkey that have managed to stay quiet until now. Erdogan is a closet Islamist who wishes to tear away the secularism that is endemic to the Ataturkist foundations of modern Turkey. This discontent will not be going away any time soon, I can promise you that. |
