I'm brainwashed? Is that what it's come down to? Being confrontational? Fair enough I guess. Maybe I didn't answer how Assad could still be in power directly, but I did answer indirectly, I stated that it was my opinion that most of the Syrian people would have an anti-Assad stance. Because you...

You know that Al-Qaeda stuff is nothing but propaganda. Ye sure, there are probably Al Qaeda militants in Syria (we all know about foreigners going to Syria to fight), but the vast majority of the rebels in Syria are still Syrian with a lot of the groups comprised of and being led by defected...

The commander seems to have answered those questions, and I saw your reply to commander and to be honest, your reply didn't impress me enough to change my opinion. And I don't know enough to have an answer to all those questions anyway. I just give my opinion based on what I have seen. I am not...

Why are those defections baseless? Those defections form my opinion that Assad is in the wrong. If they felt like Assad was doing the right thing, then they wouldn't have defected in such a large scale. I've seen those links, and I have noticed you calling them terrorists (so no need for the...

Yes, I am aware that foreigners are joining the fight in Syria, but I am also aware that this trend started about a year ago. Because the fighting in Syria took so long, it started attracting foreigners to the country. I know this because I saw it in a Dutch documentary. They were worried that...

I think you are being way to paranoid when it comes to this secular stuff. AKP is the main party for 10 years now, I don't see any Sharia in Turkey now. They made (or tried to) make reforms when it comes to certain Islamic stuff like the headscarf ban, but this is a good thing. There is no point...

I feel embarrassed about this tv show. I never liked this tv series and never gave it much attention. But I knew it was gonna get exported to other countries some day, and I knew it was gonna effect Turkey's image in a bad way. There are a couple of other tv series as well that will/are probably...

I am not trying to defend Atatwolf in this, but in what way is that insult a racist comment to towards Indian people? It just seems like a regular insult that could be aimed towards anyone. I do agree Atatwolf was out of line though. @atatwolf if you want to challenge him. Ask him why he...

Rehn warns Turkey on closure case against ruling party Not only was EU critical, but they also warned that it would jeopardize EU negotiations. I can't be bothered to look up all the details about these cases, but we all know there is a lot more to it than that.

FSA is made up of Assad soldiers who defected. That's why they call themselves Free Syrian army. I am aware that foreigners are going to Syria, but the trend started because the conflict in Syria is taking so long. As far as I know, foreigners are joining the fight in Syria for more or less than...

I'm glad Hasim Kilic was there to vote then. I remember the case against AKP as well. The allegations was that 'AKP had activity's against the principal of secularism'. The case ended in cutting AKP's funds in half. I remember lots of criticisms against this court case as well, even from EU...

No idea. I wouldn't support a closing of a political party anyway, because there is no point. They'll just remake the party and it makes Turkey look bad in the international arena.

4 of a total of 22 members though. It's not a given that Cumhurbaskan will always be someone close to AKP either. I am still not convinced that AKP has the power to manipulate the judges and prosecutors as it wishes. I'm sure once the EU negotiations restart again, they will come out with...

Aren't the rebels made up of Syrian people? You'll probably reply saying that foreigners joined the fight as well, that's true, but most of the resistance is still Syrian. Just because Syrian Lion is Syrian and supports Assad, doesnt mean that all Syrians support him. I'm cool if Assad's...

Sorry you are right, I used the wrong source. I ment to use this one: Both sides in Syria commit war crimes including murder, torture, UN says - World News The report is from a few weeks ago. The report covers a time period of 6 months until January of 2013. To be honest, it's hard to imagine...

No matter if Assad ends up staying or leaving after this ordeal, he will go down in history in a bad way. I am aware that Syrian rebels are committing atrocities, but I am also aware that Syrian army is doing the same thing in a bigger scale. I got this from a UN report from a couple of weeks...

"Yasaya göre, HSYK 22 asıl, 12 yedek üyeden oluşacak. Kurul, 3 daire halinde çalışacak. Kurulun Başkanı Adalet Bakanı olacak. Adalet Bakanlığı Müsteşarı kurulda tabii üye olarak yer alacak. Müsteşar bulunmadığı zaman...

I don't know the details of this, but I remember back then that I was supporting this move. I remember that the then current HSYK president Kadir Ozbek did some very questionable moves, like removing public prosecutors from high profile cases like the Ergenekon case, which raised question marks...

You think this comment makes you look good or bad? In other words, what is more commendable? Trying to establish a friendship, or rejecting a friendship?

I am also critical about the long incarceration time pending trial. But I know that the government is also critical about this as well. How can they solve this? I don't know, reforms in the justice system, but as far as I know, the main problem cited for this is because the trials are taking too...
