Freedom of expression? After Wordpress and Youtube, Turkey bans blogger.

[petercasier]

Basbas reports that after Wordpress and YouTube now Blogger is blocked in Turkey.

Help spreading the word. This not acceptable in any country and certainly not in a member state of NATO and in a country with EU-aspirations. Freedom of expression is a basic civil right in a democracy.

It's too bad that people dont' realize we're all the SAME we're all CONNECTED. Religion, politics and such just try and make you feel different or separate from other which is an illusion as we are all just one. Ever thought of earth as one big organism? (Ok that's a little deep)

Wow, this is the stuff you expect from Russia or China not from a nation that seemed to be on its way to becomming a democracy.

That makes me sad Freedom should be universal. Freedom, not just in the physical sense, but also of the mind and soul.

I think that being larger nations Russia and China are slightly more tolerant. Turkey is currently facing a much more shaky political situation. Fear begets intolerance.
