These people are a fascist minorityMay 13th, 2007 - 18:09:09
These people 'protesting' are a minority who want to go back to the old system of cronyism and corruption. They seem to forget before the AK Party the 70% inflation, high unemployment, weak governments and currency. These people only care about themselves. They are xenophobic and anti-foreigner. Look at the signs they carry. The AK Party should be rewarded for finally pulling the country out of the gutter, but hey, here in Turkey it's always 'bir numara' - only look out for number one. And no, I didn't waste my time to observe their 'protest' - I wouldn't want to tell some idiot with an anti-US sign where to stick it. - Ted VB (USA), Izmir Turkey
