This source is a product of an exiled Turkish journalist that narrowly escaped arrest himself. He writes from Stockholm and is one of the best covering events in Turkey honestly.

It is becoming increasingly insane in Turkey now because of the upcoming "snap" election on June 24th.

Wow what a surprise. Throughout history Muslims have always taken hostages when they “negotiate”.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is holding a number of Western nationals in jail to use them as “bargaining chips”

Any of them Americans? I think recent events show that that is a two-edged sword. Shows how feckless our NATO partners are, however.

While there are a number of other things going on in the world I don't understand why Erdogan's frontal assault on the west has not landed Turkey in a world of hurt.

Let’s not forget that England is as bad as Turkey for unjustly jailing those who speak out against the regime.

Turkey using the tried and true Sadaam Hussein method of barter. Erdogan forgets how that worked out for sadaam.
