Prejudice against non-Muslims in Turkey

Submitted by Stas (Ukraine), Dec 22, 2012 at 03:06

I have read recently that Turkey is discriminating even more against their Jews and Christian minorities, following in the footsteps of the Egyptian Islamist regime. Why the western world sees no cause for alarm, is beyond me. Or why the Syrian dictator continues to slaughter innocent people with impunity without the slightest (effective or meaningful) rebuke by the US or the UN, is tragic.
