Antisemitism and Conspiracy Theories in Turkey By Rifat N. Bali The official line that successive Turkish regimes have frequently repeated is that the Republic of Turkey is one of those rare countries in which antisemitism has never taken root, and in which Jews have thus lived for centuries within a tolerant atmosphere of peace and tranquility. There is just one problem: It isn't true. Along with antisemitism and persecution of other minorities are the conspiracy theories in which the "Jew" or the "Zionist" feature as the main actors. This state of affairs has even become "normal" to the point of banality, so much so that in tends to draw no reaction from either the country's intellectuals or politicians. Read about what is going on in Turkey from the inside. |

[Re:'U.S. Paid Iran $400 Million as Prisoners Were Released']: We are being laughed at! What a bunch of suckers we are!!! L.W. | |
Gender equality classes alone will do nothing. They lived their whole lives this way, and when they come to a class they will just laugh at it ... The problem is simple to solve. Just ENFORCE the existing laws and make it completely clear that such behaviour is unacceptable. To prison you go. In the Middle East, they would get beaten up, shot or stabbed for crimes like this from the victims families. B.B. |
