A night in Istanbul: democracy is under threat

At 8.16pm I wrote an email to an American friend who used to live in Turkey. I said, "It is Saturday night here and we (and a lot of our friends I am sure) feel really drained and odd. Although it has only been a little over two weeks since the protests began in Istanbul, it has been momentous and we can't help feeling we are on the brink of something new - good or bad we don't know yet. So we are tidying up loose ends and trying to get on with life as normal, only normal has changed".
