"Erdogan walks among a ruined economy propped by Islamic finance falsehoods"

My Answer : My dear Shishir you must accept that Turkish economy is growing at the fastest rate in the whole Euro Zone and is second only to China.

Turkey is second to only China when it comes to manufacturing which is reflective of the fact that Turkey is getting serious offers of reconstruction and endless opportunities in countries from Iraq , Lebanon , Gulf , Africa and Latin America.

Can you kindly look beyond what is your average Spengler mambo-Jambo economic analysis and look at solid economic facts on the ground. Can you kindly specify in objective terms what are "Islamic finance falsehoods" and how Turkey's economy is affected with it ?

Another point in question the whole Western hemisphere is affected by Western capital finance whose current status is indebtedness for lifetime and a crushing of American dream for a lot of young people. So Western financial Mumbo-Jumbo is also not working as you claim it to be.
