Quoting Deli_kizin: I have always thought AKP to be a rather dangerous party for Turkey. As I have no political sense whatsoever, I wonder where I picked up this idea though.
Maybe it is just because both Erdogan and Gül have never been able to impress me with their speeches. And I am highly surprised that Güls wife has her head covered. In a country where 20 million people live below the poverty-standarts, there are more important things than a headscarf to discuss about. But for a country that praises Atatürk so high, the founder of secularism in Turkey, it surprises me that they vote for a party in which the leaders are Islamic and have head-covered wives that therefore cant even be invited everywhere. |
You are talking about us 'veiled women' as if we are diseases or something.
Women have the right to wear whatever they want,as long as they dont cover themselves!
İ understand now what do you mean about democracy,Thank you !

There is a very informative article in the Austin, Texas newspaper describing the political parties of Turkey and indicating that the AKP party would win the elections. It also indicated that the AKP party was trying to reverse the separation of church and state, bringing an Islamic influence to the government. And, this morning's newspaper indicated that the AKP did win the election.

You obviously did not read everything I wrote. I nowhere said anything that implied I think of veiled women as a disease. I think you see us western people to be so, and therefore think I am that way too.
My ideas of writing were different than you understood, but as I was not able to explain to MrX so why bother again.
And I think the rule in Turkey that women cant wear veils in public buildings ridiculous. It is like saying at the entrance of university that you can't enter as a woman with blue eyes, but as a man you can. But the things I said had nothing to do with my OWN point of view on democracy and religion and that is exactly where I take offence in your unthoughtful message to me.
And for your information, one of my closest friends in Turkey was a veiled girl. Sometimes even she did her namaz in my livingroom after I provided her with water and a towel. So please dont call me prejudiced or non-democratical, because you are talking to the wrong person.

Yes, the Power Unity of Patriotic Forces Movement - don't you know them? The extreme right nationalists who murdered journalist Hrant Dink.
The members of this movement were charged with 40 different misdoings that vary from assassination to forgery and child pornography. Nationalism at its most proud!
You telling me you never heard of this?

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I didn't expect the AK Parti to lose in the elections. The big question in my mind was how much they would gain. The fact that they did not get over 50% of the votes and do not have enough votes in Parliament to act alone is a victory for Turkey and security for secularism. The AK Parti now needs to act responsibly and put forward a candidate for President that will receive the necessary votes to govern.
