Turkish Journalist stoned for not wearing head scarf

The hostility between the Turkish secular elite and the Muslim majority are extreme, as illustrated by an article on Turk.us

"Aliye Cetinkaya, a journalist from the Turkish daily Sabah newspaper, who was reporting on the recent protests over the offensive caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed, was stoned in Konya for reasons demonstrators said were provocative – as she did not cover her head."
