#2 "Who of you is saying this? You are saying this to someone who is struggling" for secularism, he said. "Is there anyone who is working against it that you are saying this to? These are not nice things."

Who's saying what? Well, let's see:

Since taking power in 2002, Erdogan has increased secularists' concerns by speaking out against restrictions on wearing Islamic-style head scarves in government offices and schools

That's bad.

and by supporting religious schools.

That's bad.

He also tried to criminalize adultery

That's bad.

some party-run municipalities have taken steps to ban alcohol.

That's bad, too.

Four for four is really kinda sucky, Recep old boy. A little too pro-Islamic for some folk it would seem. Maybe some nice Islamist will come along and ~~'splode~~ straighten you out.
