Their campaign is seen by secularists as a threat to the state's guiding principles, laid down by its founding father, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.
Some who are suspicious of the AKP see the headscarf as a symbol of political Islam.
Family tensions Hilal decided to wear the headscarf for the first time when she was 18, just before beginning an undergraduate degree. She felt that it was part of her identity as a Turkish Muslim, she says.
"My father objected," Ms Kaplan told the BBC World Service. [ link to www.bbc.co.uk] Last Edited by SUFFER FOOLS on 09/10/2010 10:48 PM |
