TURKEY: Travel Advisory Remains Level 3 - Reconsider Travel (US Dept. of State)
What was the name of that movie?
I’m illiterate when it comes to movies. Sorry.
I’m sure some are planning along those line.
Midnight Express
It is dicey in Turkey for anyone, let alone tourists or business persons. Example:
Five more people arrested for ‘swearing at Erdogan’ in Turkey’s Izmir.
Islam or communism ideologies for dictators and warmongers.
I worry about my BIL, He is now an American citizen. He built a plant here that makes specialize diamod tooling for the ario-space industry, but he also built a plant in Turkey to help his family there. He’s over there right now,
You referring to "Midnight Express"?
Turks on the whole are a very unsocial, nasty people who hate Americans.
Remember American Serena Shim. Hit by a cement truck two days after Turkey’s Military Intelligence accused her of being a spy.
I was Incirlik in 1982. I would very much agree with that. I didnt exactly have any warm fuzzy feelings for them either. I figured those chumps would feel more comfortable being our enemies, than our friends. I still feel that way. I got no time for Turkey.
Midnight Express?
I am very surprised that any paper in Turkey would be able to print that.
In the article at your link, it is stated that Izmir is the center of support for the CHP, the Kemalist. Until recently, Erdogan has not provoked them. They ran Turkey from the end of WWI until about 15-20 years ago as Erdgoan rose to power.
İnce lost the presidential race to Erdoğan in the June 24 election. Erdoğan garnered 52.6 percent of the vote against İnces 30.6 percent, according to unofficial results. (only done by extreme voter fraud by AKP and extreme voter suppression of the pro Kurd HDP)
In İzmir, which is seen as the stronghold of the CHP, Erdoğan secured 32.92 percent of the vote while İnce got 54 percent in the presidential poll.
Erdogan's AKP party, supports all Islamists. ISIS, Nusra (al-Qaeda), Sultan Murat and the Muslim Brotherhood. The leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood moved from Egypt to Turkey as Egyptian President Sisi dealt with them in Egypt. Turkey is now the Rat's nest for Terrorists.
Your concern is warranted. I’ll keep him in my prayers.
I remember you mentioning him in previous conversation.
OK, now I get it. Thanks. Yes it is appropriate.
There are some here on FR who grew up there. Watching this is painful for them.
I’m sure the Islamists are what you said. Turks are not noted for human kindness, but I’m sure there are exceptions.
Most of those that are persecuted in Turkey are kind people in general. Greek, Armenian, Alevi, Jews, Ezidi and Assyrians. All of them have been targets of Massacres or Genocide.
The threat is not just in Turkey. They encroach on their neighbors.

Midnight Express
turkey had the chance to join the civilized world, and rejected it by electing islamist dictators. Too late now. No sane person should go to turkey.
