this post is for TC members who always criticise Women/children Rights in Turkey.

That is what I call 'a lesson' to the people who critisize Turkey!!
This is a slap on their face!!
This is a check-mate situation.
I dont think anybody will DARE to critisize Turkey about womens right..
Not after this post!!!
Phew!!!

Am I missing something here? What does this have to do with womens rights? Clearly these children were taken away during an investigative matter of child abuse etc.. Which goes on everyday, sadly. I think our society however should have better conditions for these children while they investigate. There is no simple solution to this, since the consistancy of reported abuse cases aren't investigated half the time. I think the question is when and how should the government intervene when the suspection of an abuse takes place.

I don't think you can compare womens rights in the U.S. to Turkey. Again. we do have many problems here but not to the extent of Turkey.

What a woman must do (with a special dedication to Lapinkulta ):

Perhaps Lapin didn't understand this article. It was about a righteous decision of a court to take away abused (or, even, allegedly abused) children away.

This is a good thing about the US judicial mechanism, degil mi?

Also, it stated clearly at the end, that polygamy is illegal in the US. So, what happened there, was separating minors from parents occupied in illegal procedures that may be harmful to the kids.

What does it have to do with women's rights? Adults were there out of their own consent and minors have been taken away by the police and thus had their rights protected...

If you want to point out injustice to women, here's something to give you an insight into the matter:

the number of women in the US Congress
(for those who don't know, there are 435 members in the House of Representatives and 100 senators - see what number out of 535 are women)

See lapin, you don't need sensation to see that equality guaranteed and exercised are two different things

You are not a woman so it's not your business to speak about women's rights dear.


So . . . according to you: Islam is none of your business, men are none of your business and Turkish issues are none of your business. These are only a few of the topics that are none of your business as you are not a Muslim, a man or Turkish...

did u understand?if u didnt,I can tell u these with another language..

Am I the only one who spotted sarcasm in Cat's "you're not a woman so you can't discuss it" thing?

Sorry Cat if you meant it seriously and not as a laugh at the natio club of Turks.

If we were having an intelligent conversation, my previous words would have been sarcastic, but with Lapin... who had just said that there's no problems with women's situation in his country, who found some unrelated article and then made some funny conclusions, and who cannot understand what I meant and now compares his ignorance about gender inequality to my criticism of open statements and actions of many Muslims... well, with Lapin there's pretty much little hope to get anywhere on this topic. Maybe he's just pretending that he doesn't get it... I don't know. Maybe he feels so offended when his country is criticized and cannot accept it... :-S

Here is what you said earlier my friend:

Yet still I don't see what women's rights have to do with this thread

To me this is nothing to do with women rights, it is to do with the cranky religious cults that eminate through out the US and suck vulnerable victims, usually children into their sick ways of life.
