Help has been requested from Germany. At the same time the government and its propaganda outlets claim that there is no need for help and that things are mostly under control. Private citizens try to contain the fires with 5l buckets of water at a time. What a shit-show.

Ideally that and any other religious organization would be under government control and teach a government approved curriculum, like Diyanet for Sunnis. Thats also the reason why the patriach is slowly dying, because the school in Halkali where the next generation is usually educated cannot be...

Greece and Israel have officially offered help and both were declined.

Why dont you come and start making some Turkish-Syrian kids.

It has been historically there, there's nothing wrong with them being there? Secularism includes all religions, unlike our government's understanding, which is: there's only Sunni Islam and nothing else. Ignoring the fact that there are 15-20 Million Alevis, and 2-3 million Christians (whether...

Any guesses how many new hotels will be build here?

This government has brought shame over the Turkish nation so many times. But being too proud to accept the help of your neighbour in times of need is one of the biggest, shameful episodes in this never ending horror story.

After days of nothing, it seems like the government has finally accepted help from the EU: But not the help from Greece that could have literally been here on day one if requested. We always helped out each other in times of need, seems like our government does not even have the decency for...

Propaganda Ministry posting that the whole world is watching on Turkey as an example on how to handle the fires. My goodness, how spineless and/or dumb do you have to be to support these people.

The country is burning and half of the comments here are - its democracies fault we should go China style - bohoo my feelings are hurt, I'm a snowflake and will post they call us fashists until someone pays attention to my snowflake feelings - Erdogan is bad, but the Opposition (insert somekind...

That guy is driving around with his 20 car motorcade and throwing tea? out of the bus to the people. How out of touch can you be. Just stay in your palace already.

I cant believe how bad prepared a country that is used to forest fires cant be. We spend billions on so many unnecessary things, but can't maintain a fleet of fire fighting aircraft. Lets see how many new hotels will be build in Marmaris and Antalya in the regions close to the sea.

Theoretically maybe, but Russia. And also we're not going to declare war on the Syrian government.

How do you get the drones to the South of Syria? Or do you mean Turkey should launch an offensive against the Syrian government? With who? Where?

The markets are kind, even without any change in interest rate, Erdogan still commenting and the inflation rising Lira improved 3% vs. Dollar. But when you think about how we lost 1-2% on single days, it shows how little that means.

Dont get me wrong, every investment or order is good. But I just dont understand why a state enterprise product is not getting the same level of support and love.

I hate that US-imported white / not white terminology.

Can we please not use Facebook or Instagram posts? Or at least post a screenshot for the people without accounts?

You guys are acting like we're facing a massive uprising. More marriages between the different ethnicities and peace are good enough for me.

What if not more citizens is the answer but citizens that can feed their families, have good education and live a good life?
