Widow of a CHECHEN extremist Norway made the mistake of taking in. She targeted the police (bit of a recurring theme) in the main tourist district with the greatest concentration of historic buildings. Now tourism is really important to Turkey, and though fellow Muslims might not weigh that much in the balance for ISIS, you would think they wouldn't go out of their way to punish Turkey for having weak borders they depend on strategically.

From the very good article:
"Specialist Russian website Kavkaski Uzel (Caucasian Knot) said that Istanbul had become a popular refuge for radically-minded Muslims from the Caucasus who were now fearing a crackdown on their presence."Erdogan is an idiot. He's made his choice and I hope it costs him millions in tourist dollars.
Turkey was a place I loved to visit, but now I will never go back and will urge my friends to stay away too.
