This thread has a seemingly inaccurate tone to it. Many people are framing their questions in a way that would suggest this protest is some sort of uprising similar to what is happening and has happened in Syria, Egypt, etc. The OP is answering in a very optimistic activist tone about 'overthrowing the government'. I think there should be some clarity here - this protest is significantly smaller than the protests in Syria and Egypt for one, it is limited to Istanbul, Turkey is a very different country in terms of personal liberty and politics than Syria and Egypt and is an associate member of the EU and progressing toward full membership.
