There is no question that the head scarf is allowed in EU-countries, except from some public offices that do not allow anything on the head and any religious clothing. Turkey must be allowed to become islamic and democratic if that`s what the people vote for, there is a lot at stake and when the military comes in Turkey can truly forget about EU-membership. I hope severely that Turkey can become the first true Muslim civil society with human rights, where civil law rules and economy booms and where there is transparacy in politics, justice system and economics.
