Franco would be very pleased
 with his successors' ruth- and shamelessness.

Oh, and by the way:

An interesting headline, isn't it?!

Why do people tend to do the second step before the first?

Why trying to find a "scientific" (sic) way to better present (sic) 'Turkishness'?

"Turkish Ness ... Turkish Ness ... Has it something to do with Lough Ness?"
