Rule 5: Fahriye Evcen

Turkish television actress Fahriye Evcen doesn’t look like the sort of covered woman PM Erdogen has in mind for his country’s fundy Muslim future. She was born in Germany of immigrant Turkish parents. But her appearance nevertheless represents the young, freedom-seeking Ankara Istanbul protesters now trying to overthrow Erdogen. I suspect Evcen would join me in wishing them good fortune and god speed.

UPDATE: Now it gets bloody. Erdogen’s police forces move in. Crunch time.

  1. Why, couldn’t she join me in wishing that instead 😉

    Oh well, I am not wired for that eventuality anyway.

    More likely you than me, though I expect she is well bred enough to be polite about it.

  3. As if I need some other reason to oppose Erdoğan, this alone is good enough. She represents at least a better fashion sense for the Middle East.

    Long as she stays out of Saudi….
