12,000 secular Turks march against radical Islam

  _____  


Associated Press, THE JERUSALEM POST 

Nov. 4, 2006

  _____  

Thousands of secular, nationalist Turks marched in the capital Saturday,
vowing to defend the secular regime against Islamization and urging the
government not to make too many concessions in order to gain European Union
membership. 

Some 12,000 people waved Turkish flags as they marched to the mausoleum of
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of modern Turkey, in a show of loyalty to
secularism. 

"Turkey is secular and it will remain secular," marchers chanted. 

Turkey's staunchly secular President Ahmet Necdet Sezer will retire in May,
and the parliament will choose the new president. 

Although largely ceremonial, the presidency has become a symbol for
secularism under Sezer.
