What is the relation? CENSORSHIP against anything anti-Turkish

And that's the difference - if US/EU soldiers commit a crime, their own governments try them, judge them and punish them and US/EU media shows it instead of trying to conceal it censoring access to information. If Turkish soldiers did the same, would what they did be as clear in Turkish media or not?

Quoting AEnigmamagnadea:

I think we should also be thankful that we have a military police force who are unafraid to investigate their own troops and a media who are free to print and comment on this horrible incident without censorship or government intervention.

Keeping ANY abuse in the open means that it will be reported and not kept 'secret' - be it abuse on this scale, or abuse within families.

Your link doesn't open (at least on my laptop). But, does it mean that the western world doesn't speak about the crimes of their soldiers and doesn't judge them for them? I'd appreciate it if, for ONCE, you gave an argumentative answer instead of linking things. We love it that you consider us morons unable to google even the simplest issues like what a congress is, but that's your style, be it. I know argumentation is harder than posting links, but..how about giving it a go?

I didnt ban the Youtube so i will not be offend here, but some Turkish citizen get offended and goes to court and court finds their claim true, it is sad,

but the thing to consider is why there is not ban to the idiots who broadcasts stupid things about any nationality and people

Turkey first goes to Youtube to ask those users information but youtube denies according to policies if so, Turkish government doesnt want that website promoted. thats the thing about Youtube.

Dont you watch news lately about Turkey? Ergenekon? so how can you say that Turkish Media is cencored?

Oh come on! can you come to senses some please? Ofcourse they would be the same, and i myself knew some punishments and news in newspapers about abusing behaviours of officers...

turkish daily news and todays zaman are not the only sourcers to get news about Turkey
