Islam is so tolerant isn't it?

Trukey is the nation Bush and other Islam appologists point to as the model for Islamic democracy. I think they need to point somehwere else.

Disclamer: I'm Greek Orthodox so my oppinion of Turkey considering their past treatment of Greeks is not "fair and balanced".

Actually the fact that these demonstrators can freely demonstrate proves that Turkey is a democratic regime.

Even in the US you'll see hundreds gather for events such as the KKK, Neo-Nazi's, and other ridiculous organizations. This doesn't mean we support these groups, but they are free to demonstrate, same goes for Turkey.
