It wouldn’t make me feel sad to see it happen here. Better now than later.
The only problem is that these protesters are likely not in the majority. Of course, that doesn’t mean there won’t be change. Kinda funny how alcohol restrictions was the catalyst for this protest.
Sounds like the aborted Iran revolution of a few years ago - people fed up with living in an Islamic state. Wrong direction for this government to be interested though.
….“But the recent demonstrations in Turkey have exposed Obama’s policies in a way that perhaps no other development has done.”
“…the president would rather befriend an Islamist ruler than embrace the pleas of the Turkish people for change.”
The BBC showed video of a guy in a burned out police van who was protesting by consuming a big bottle of beer.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Sure, relax, settle down. Nothing wrong with Islamism
Big difference, and it is called because Americans are armed, guns.
Sure looks like it.
Red Flags Over Turkish Rioters
http://noisyroom.net/blog/2013/06/06/red-flags-over-turkish-rioters/
Most Americans think that any trouble in the Middle East comes from Islamic radicals.
In reality, much of it comes from the old pro-Moscow communist parties which are still very strong and growing in influence in the region. The communists work with and often control local radical Islamic factions on behalf of their Russian allies.
The Communist Party of Turkey is up to its eyeballs in the current mass rioting in Turkey.

US Communists Back Turkish Rioters, Trying to Enlist Congressional Support
Predictably the Communist Party USA is backing their Turkish counterparts in their efforts to overturn the Erdogan Government.
The CPUSA hints that Turkey is being targeted for membership of NATO and for helping the U.S. against the pro-Moscow Assad regime in Syria. Turning Turkey from a NATO member to a Russian ally, would be a major strategic victory for Moscow.
This unrest is a warning to any country who dares oppose the Russian agenda in the Middle East.
SNIP
The CPUSA will now be lobbying its numerous supporters and allies in Congress to come out in support of the Turkish revolutionaries.
