FrontPage magazine.com :: Radical Imams and Terrorists by Michael Radu

"...In Turkey, a 99 percent Muslim country, imams are required to complete formal studies where the secular government establishes the curriculum, and are only allowed to preach if they have a government-provided license. As a result, the more than 2 million strong Turkish
