Turkish academics: Remain silent or risk all

The Gulen charter schools have been up to all sorts of no good in the US, see http://www.nola.com/education/baton-rouge/index.ssf/2013/12/...

If you really want to understand the mentality of people that would lead them to submit to an organization like that, I suggest reading "Black Book" by Orhan Pamuk.

(As an aside, we met 2-3 years back in Portland a few times at some of those New Relic meet ups, I hope neocities is still doing well!)

I'm certainly not ruling out that this could all be true. What I'd love to see is a compilation of evidence.

There's a great site on Neocities that's been doing this with Scientology since our foundation and is regularly updated https://scientology.neocities.org

(Neocities is going strong, thank you!)

Posted this earlier in another thread, but this is an interesting, well-referenced, and us-based analysis supporting his claims: http://www.meforum.org/2045/fethullah-gulens-grand-ambition
