"TURKEY TURNING TO ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM
Turkey has slowly and steadily been dismantling the secular state created by Kemal Ataturk in the 1920s. Ataturk recognized the insidious nature of Islam and barred that ideology from public life. As a result, Turkey began developing a functioning economy, established close ties with the United States and became a member of NATO, the only Muslim-majority nation to do so."
