| For Murat: Bakery-Turned-Brothel Targeted |
| 2004-05-19 |
| A small bomb exploded on Tuesday at a bakery that was moonlighting as a brothel in southern Turkey but no one was hurt, police said. Authorities had closed the bakery a week ago for soliciting, but the shop re-opened after a local court ruling, a policewoman told Reuters. The shop’s windows were broken in the explosion but it suffered little other damage. "It’s still just a theory, but it appears the blast is connected to the prostitution," another official said. Prostitution is legal only in Muslim Turkey’s many state-controlled brothels. Thousands of foreign nationals, mainly from former Soviet states, work in an illicit skin trade in cities and resort areas. But religious tradition in conservative parts of the country has led to outrage, even mass street demonstrations, against women suspected of prostitution. Let’s see. In Turkey you have to pay the government to screw you. Er... it puts new meaning to the term "hot cross buns". They’re raking in the dough, any way you look at it. |

| #12 Prostitution is legal only in Muslim Turkey’s many state-controlled brothels. There's gold in them thar TAX REVENUES. Q: What do they put on the visas of the foreign "ladies" as reason for "visiting" Turkey? (I think just saying "JOB OPPORTUNITY" might be suspicious) |

| #11 Murat, the link to an article on Abu Graib only proves one thing. We punish those who "torture" others. Stay on topic article above and stop trying to divert attention away. |

| #8 Murat could be saving himself for the 72 virgins Sorry dude, the paradise is right here on earth, don't need to die to be with 72 bunnies, ask Hugh Hefner. :) |

| #7 Murat could be saving himself for the 72 virgins - some of which would hopefully be Russian. Do they have nipple clamps and love toys in Islamo-Paradise? |

| #6 B, No buddy come on now, you know how much anti war and anti Abu Graib brothel I am. "If it’s your job to strip people naked, yell at them, scream at them, humiliate them, it’s not going to be too hard to move from that to another level." In one incident, two drunken interrogators took a female Iraqi prisoner from her cell in the middle of the night and stripped her naked to the waist. The interrogators had to be restrained by a prison guard, he said. |

| #5 When I was a young Ensign, all the talk was about going to the "Compound" to check out the whores. Rumor had it that the men would send their wives/daughters there to work off debt. I don't know if it was true but most of the chicks were skanks. The only hot ones were from Russia. |

| #4 Don't doubt you Murat. I'm guessing your bumper sticker says, Make War Not Love. I guess blowing one's self up can alleviate all of that sexual frustration in a hurry. |
