So we can expect another thread soon titled "The Courts Have Been Closed Down".

Great P. R. own goal again for Erdogan and more importantly the image of Turkey.

Reminds me of the aftermath of the protests a few months back. Who on Earth sends police in to physically drag lawyers out of courtrooms in front of the TV cameras of the World and arrest them - only to release them without charge the next day!!!

Are you expecting Eric to start a post-April 1st thread?
