As Turkey's coach Fatih Terim would say: "This is the football... what can i do sometimes?"

I'm glad you asked this as its my chance to clear a misconception. i'm sure the Television images you've seen in recent months give you the impression that Turkey can be a scary place that is wracked by political turmoil. There certainly is some political instability here but Turkey is a safe, welcoming, wonderful country that you absolutely must visit if you get the chance. Istanbul is a city of 15 million and there are of course some sketchy pockets but no more than any american cities. The most unstable place right now is along the Syrian border - where the civil war is increasingly overlapping to hit Turkish communities. We put together a video project about that issue - take a look here: http://graphics.wsj.com/BORDERLANDS/
