Doesn't surprise me. Like most Turks, the pork-eating Muslims you speak of are of the secular variety. I doubt many (if any) Muslims who regularly pray to Mecca 5x/day and observe the other religious obligations eat pork.

Secular (and most reform) Jews eat pork as well.

Doesn't surprise me, either.

Iraq is largely secular, despite how the media portrays it.

It's easy to get pork products at butcher shops in Baghdad - and I'm sure in other cities as well.

Several of the ones we work with and around are eschewing that whole Ramalamadingdong fasting as well.
