If you have any questions regarding Turks or Turkey I would like to answer them,
and I hope some more turkish friends will join me.
 
Whats the beef against Pope Benedict XVI in Turkey?

Well, nobody really cares about the Pope in Turkey, but a party which has less than 3% of the votes wanted public attention and gathered 20,000 in a 14,000,000 city. Normal people are not really intrested I think since Pope is coming for Patriarch Bartholomew.
 
When are you giving back Constantinople?
 
I will remain secular for sure. Secularism is too strong and well established in Turkey.
Do you hope Turkey would serve as a role model to the other Muslim nations? :)
 
Well, first we need to take Balkans, Caucasia and Middle East back. :D
So secretly you yearn for the old Ottoman Empire? ;)

Look at the trouble spots of the world today. It is all because we lost power too quickly, there was a huge power vacuum at the region.

Give it all back to Turks: Middle East, Balkans, caucasia will be stable. Quick fix ha :D
 
Would the resurgance of an Ottoman Empire be realistic or even favorable in the near future? If not, why.
 
How safe it is to travel in Instanbul and surronding Turkey. Are the Gov of Turkey doing enough to stop the kurdish seperatist from bombing the civilian? Also what other terrorist group are active in the country ?

Beside Instanbul, what else are nice about Turkey ?
