gezi

This was the turning point of everything and people wanted to go to Gezi Park to support protesters.

Erdogan refers to the Gezi Park protesters as terrorists.

Also what the hell do the protests in Gezi park have to do with PHP?

These things led to the Gezi Park protests and a diminished confidence from investors.

Following an underwhelming turnout at Prime Minister's rally of his own supporters, Turkish police has attacked the encampment at Gezi having dinner.

Most western observers have missed this crucial fact and are, therefore, quick to enthusiastically compare the Gezi Park protests with the ‘Arab Spring’.

I lived in Turkey (Istanbul) for one year, made some good friends and was active in the Gezi Park protests.

So they just cannot grasp why stuff like Gezi happens.

Don't get me wrong: the power, optimism, camaraderie and restraint that the protestors showed at Gezi was the most beautiful thing I ever experienced.

Is Gezi Park a _public_ or _private_ park?

The only way for them to lose is if it turns out to be an ignition bomb (much like the plan to cut the trees in park Gezi in Turkey).

Make what you will also, but BBC Turkish has been one of the very few neutral and dependable news sources in the entire Turkish Gezi events.

This Gezi Park "crazy project" was just the last straw and everything escalated so quickly.

In the context you used "uproar" is a relative word, but people did protest the new law and it was probably the biggest one since Gezi Park protests.

You might have heard, "the Gezi protests".

From Turkish Medical Association's press release: “There is the interest lobby behind Gezi Park protests.” “They had alcohol in Dolmabahçe Mosque.” “They assaulted my sisters covering their hair.” As physicians we are following with worry the discriminating, stigmatizing and polarizing discourse adopted by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan since Gezi Park protests.

Gezi Park and the subsequent police violence on demonstrators were just the latest examples of a fundamental shift away from basic civil rights.

But that doesn't make it an any less extraordinary claim that that explains what happened in Gezi, given the spontaneous nature of the protests.

Gezi Park is a public area in the heart of Istanbul.
