A Problem like Turkey - Turkish Protests

BBC News: Reports on the first death in the four days of protest in Turkey. 

Lets Get Real:

Since the start of the African/Arab Spring the Obama Oval has been slow, in Egypt the lack of US leadership has seen the Muslim Brotherhood take power, no friend of  Israel or the West in the long term, the Arab Spring has turned Syria in to a proxy War on many levels, from within the Islamic religion to proxy Wars between the West and Iran, the last thing that the Obama Oval wants is for Turkey to go the way of Egypt or Syria, the Syrian Civil War is causing internal problems within Jordan, the high level of refugees is staring to fracture Jordan Society,  the Syrian Civil War is pushing Lebanon back in to Civil War, just as it was getting back on its feet, lets recall Turkey is a NATO ally, and nominally a secular democratic State, thus the West has to see who these protesters are, the US in the end supported the protesters in Egypt, but in the elections the better structure of the Muslim Brotherhood allowed them to win the Presidency and the Parliament, thus folks its the same problem with Syria, at the start the protesters wanted freedom, the lack of Western action has allowed Al Qaeda to become the major resistance fighters in Syria, thus a problem for the West, before we throw the Turkish leadership under the bus lets see who would replace them folks.
