Any bets on how many Kurdish restaurateurs where going to be in the Sultan Ahmet tourist district this time next week?

#2 Note that people only give the media opinions anonymously.

About the same level of intimidation found on many a college campus.

Also, there is a lot of doubt as to whether the referendum actually got 50% of the vote.

#3 I dunno. Judging by the actions of our own Congress this might not be a bad idea. They put no brakes on Obama but they've resisted Trump at every turn. They take money from lobbyists to pass laws that are not in the interests of the people who elected them and they never do what the people who elected them want. What good are they?
