Erdogan ... lovable leader of Turkey and huggie bear of the USA and Canada wants to ban Facebook and YouTube


But, he's not a dictator. No, of course not!  He's a leader who has been "properly" democratically appointed by his people not like the guy in Ukraine who was "improperly" democratically appointed and hence the West plotted an uprising to oust him. Now, you see the difference ... kiddos? One dictator who is hugged and kissed by the West is the lovable kind,  the other that is hugged and kissed  by Russia is the bad kind.  That was an easy lesson ... wasn't it kids? Always remember one simple fact that will let you  pass your tests with flying colors. Russia bad.  West good.  Class dismissed.  Now go play in the sand....but take care not to push your heads too far into it lest you choke and die.

From EuroNews:
Turkey’s Erdogan threatens Facebook & YouTube over ‘immorality and espionage’
Turkey’s under-fire prime minister has warned his government could ban Facebook and YouTube.
Tayyip Erdogan, speaking to Turkish broadcaster ATV, said the websites ‘encourage every kind of immorality and espionage for their own ends’.

In a recording posted to YouTube on Thursday, Erdogan is purportedly heard berating a newspaper owner over the telephone about an article and suggesting the journalists involved should be sacked.
It comes amid a major probe into corruption of the PM’s allies. Erdogan responded by sacking hundreds of police officers.
Erdogan, speaking ahead of key elections later this month for his Islamist-rooted AK Party, said: “We are determined on this subject. We will not leave this nation at the mercy of YouTube and Facebook.

“We will take the necessary steps in the strongest way,” he said, adding that these would come after municipal elections set for March 30.
Asked if a ban on these sites could be included among the planned measures, he said: “Included, because these people or institutions encourage every kind of immorality and espionage for their own ends.”
There was no immediate reaction from Facebook or YouTube.....
