COMMENT: Talking Turkey at ICNA

ICNA is the Islamic Circle of North America. The organisation has its roots in the activism of South Asian students of the Jama'at-i-Islami who moved to North America. Recently the annual convention of ICNA saw the daughter of Turkish President Recep Teyip Erdogan make a rather startling declaration.

FETÖ is a radical group like Daesh and Boko Haram.

In case you were wondering, FETO is shorthand for "Gulenist Terror Group". And the implications of this?

... the Gülenist Terror Group (FETÖ) is very similar to terrorist organizations and will pose a threat to all Muslims throughout the world if significant steps are not taken against them.

Steps such as? Who knows. And quite frankly, who cares.
