A survey by a university in Turkey has shown almost 40% support for the practice of "honour killing".

It questioned 430 people, most of them men. When asked the appropriate punishment for a woman who has committed adultery, 37% replied she should be killed.

Twenty-five percent said that she deserved divorce, and 21% that her nose or ears should be cut off.

The survey group was small but the results are a reminder that "honour killing" - a practice where women are murdered for allegedly bringing shame on their family - still has significant support in parts of Turkey.

Good job Oracle.

Zan or Insan or whatever he goes by is a true representative of TC thinking and the way you put them in their place is by giving them a bit of their own medicine.

Case of Varnava and others v/Turkey (ECHR)
Written Declaration No 406
This written declaration commits only the members who have signed it
On 10 January 2007, the European Court of Human Rights, in its judgment in the above-
mentioned case, found Turkey guilty of violating the rights of nine Greek-Cypriot missing persons and
their relatives and held Turkey responsible for violation of Articles 2, 3 and 5 of the European
Convention on Human Rights:
-
Article 2: failing to investigate effectively the whereabouts and fate of the nine applicants;
-
Article 3: subjecting relatives of the missing persons to inhuman and degrading treatment by
not informing them about the fate of their loved ones;
-
Article 5: depriving the missing persons of their liberty and security at the time of
disappearance.
The European Court of Human Rights’ judgment stresses Turkey’s obligations under
international treaties to respect the wounded, prisoners of war and civilians, and rebuffs the Turkish
position that the persons who disappeared during the 1974 Turkish invasion should be presumed
dead.
The Council of Europe once again firmly calls upon Turkey to:
-
fulfill its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights and implement this
recent judgment;
-
carry out an effective investigation into the fate of all the missing persons;
-
provide concrete information on all cases of Greek-Cypriot prisoners of war;
-
allow access to Turkish army and prison records

So how long do we have to wait before this “power” is unleashed onto the forum because so far you’ve been nothing but a disappointing barf bag! Image


Slowly, slowly ... it's not easy to destroy all the myths while fierce propagandists like u exert to hush up the truths and replace them with what Gene Rossides propagates. :lol:


Keep exerting to distract peoples attention towards whom u hate. U expect to hush up the human rights violations of Greece and Banana Republic of Cyprus. :lol: Poor Kristos Galimatias, staphylinoidea.


What hate? I am supplying links to western press. Look, you are the one who created this thread, i am simply adding to it. Like this ECHR link:

http://cmiskp.echr.coe.int////tkp197/vi ... hment=true

1 + 2 is......


Ur welcome. Keep adding what u like.


Not that i needed your permission but thanks, i will. Sit back and enjoy the ride. Pop those craters on your face. Get your skittles or popcorn and enjoy the show.

Church of Cyprus to file application against Turkey at ECHR
http://www.financialmirror.com/News/Cyp ... News/14317
March 06, 2009

The Church of Cyprus will resort to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) for the destruction of 522 churches in the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus.

According to a press release, issued here by the Church of Cyprus, at the initiative of Archbishop Chrysostomos II, the Church is prepared to take Turkey to the European Court on account of the continuing destruction of 522 churches in the northern Turkish occupied areas of the country.

The Church will also highlight the need to safeguard Cyprus’ religious and cultural heritage, much of which has been pillaged or destroyed since the 1974 Turkish invasion of the island.

“This resort to the ECHR is necessary due to the fact that Turkey continues consciously to destroy the churches in our island and refuses to cooperate for the reconstruction and repair of all monuments which have suffered barbaric alterations”, the press release says.

The Church of Cyprus notes that “a lot of churches have been converted into stables, stores, hen-houses, night clubs, libraries, cultural centers, morgues, mosques and military camps”, since the Turkish invasion against Cyprus in 1974.
