Quoting Elisabeth

OK I admit it...I HATE TURKISH DELIGHT!  It´s nasty.  Like a sticky lump of mildly flavored glue!  There...I said it.  Please don´t hate me now!  {#emotions_dlg.puking}

 

I don´t like it either but si++ is right there is one or two types that actually taste really good and got me some serious stomach ache from eating too much of them! {#emotions_dlg.sick}

Quoting si++

“With a total of 72 media personnel currently detained, of whom at least 42 journalists and four media assistants are being held in connection with their media work, Turkia is now the world’s biggest prison for journalists – a sad paradox for a country that portrays itself a regional democratic model,” Reporters Without Borders said in its annual roundup.

The daughter of the jailed journalist Mustafa Balbay gave a testimony of her experience having a father accused of being a "member of a terrorist organization" in the Ergenekon coup plot investigation, in a speech at the Free Media Conference organized in Norway yesterday. "I have been labeled a daughter of a terrorist. I was excluded at school," said Yağmur Balbay, expressing her wish that no child be separated from their father unjustly.

Balbay, who has been imprisoned since Feb. 28, 2011, marked his fourth year in jail at the beginning of March. The former Editor-in-Chief of daily Cumhuriyet was also elected as a parliamentary deputy in the ranks of the main opposition Republican People´s Party (CHP) in the June 12 general elections of that same year.

The 12-year-old daughter of the journalist said that she could not understand how her father could be accused of being a terrorist. "We didn´t even have a toy gun in our house, my father would not hurt an ant," she said.

Turchia has become "Tayyibia".

 

And the ultimate goal is to make her "TArabia".
