Gezi Park: Rogues’ Gallery

Occupiers, Gezi Square, Istanbul, two weeks ago. The word “Çapulcu” on the carton “Hotel” sign above = Terrorist/Freebooter, a phrase used by the Turkish Prime Minister to describe the occupiers and adopted by the occupiers themselves tongue-in-cheek. (FujiX100)
The Turkish Prime Minister had described the (now ex-)occupiers of Gezi Square as Looters/Freebooters, subverters of democracy engaged in immoral activities. Many western newspapers, including the Wall Street Journal as late as this morning’s edition, described them as violent. Do they look the part?
Photos explain everything so well, nothing much to say, “Less is more”.
Still, sad to see newspapers one sided comment,meaning Wall Street Journal.
