1. Turkish woman detained after tweeting picture of herself standing on pages of Quran

(You might have to get there by navigating from the front page of Hurriynetdailynews)

A woman was detained in the Turkish capital Ankara after sharing a photo of her feet standing on pages of the Quran via her Twitter account.

The Ankara Public Prosecutor’s Office took action against the Twitter account @kedibiti after Ankara Mayor Melih Gökçek, who is known as an active Twitter user, filed a complaint about the account, also alleging that it had “insulted the president and the government.”

Prosecutors discovered that the Twitter account’s owner was a 36-year-old Istanbul resident, identified only as G.Y. The Istanbul Police Department called her to the police station, and she arrived at the station in Istanbul’s Gayrettepe neighborhood, where she reportedly explained that she was an atheist.

She was released after questioning, but a lawsuit has been opened against her on charges of “triggering hatred in society” and “slandering.”

4. South Korea takes down ‘Christmas tree’ border tower

The tower, which stood about 3km (2 miles) from the border, could be seen by North Koreans living in nearby towns.

The tree was put up by Christian groups, who in some years would put up a giant cross on top. The North had accused the South of using the tree to proselytise.

  1. Listening to you pathetic Anglo WASPS on the CBC and CFRA, especially the hosts – Lowell Green excluded – especially one of the idiot guests on CFRA during the 12-1pm time, makes me puke!!!!!

    Sad that an Anglo politician of the left wing persuasion was not slaughtered yesterday.

    Canadian politicians are the source of ALL of that country`s problems: your debt, your demographic, your crumbling infrastructure, etc..

    Give them back their passports so they can exit customs, as they are all shown onto a plane to Turkey. Then cancel the passports and send their details to Interpol.
