Super pictures of a real live issue. But what's the "Greater Anatolia Project" when it's at home? You've just made that up. The project's called GAP, a Turkish acronym standing for Southeast Anatolia Project. Which to my ear sounds more innocent than the sinister neo-conny version you've concocted.
