Turkey Takes Censorship Several Steps Further

What is the connection?

Sarkozy's views about Turkey's admission has nothing to do with Turkey's penchant for web censorship. Sarkozy just does not believe Turkey is within Europe. For him, it does not matter if Turkey is the freest country in the world. In any case, this news is as bogus as the news couple of years ago that Turkey wants to ban the internet.

PS. Where do you get all these idiots as reporters?

Ha

So there's more than one reason to think Turkey's govt. is being ridiculous? Thanks for clearing that up. ;)

If you ever think this is

If you ever think this is all about censorship of "free speech" in Turkey, you are definitely on the wrong path. Saying "Ataturk was not a good leader" may be regarded as free speech; but saying "Ataturk was a hardcore gay" is something else. Do you American always have to be this much shallow-thinkers?

that's no censorship.

that's no censorship. Ataturk is as holy in Turkey as the Prophet, if not more.

Why insult what is beautiful?

There's no reason for people to insult Kemal Atatürk unless they have a rotten heart and bad intentions.
If you don't understand Atatürk's importance for us and the world, trust Albert Einstein's words for now: The greatest leader in the world...Atatürk!
