More about TurkeyReader comment on item: Problems Aplenty - Turkey, Syria, and Egypt Submitted by David W. Lincoln (Canada), Apr 24, 2013 at 17:17 Given the time constraints of the interview, the perception of Turkey being democratic could not be challenged.

Thank you for your analysis, Dr. Pipes.
