We the people ask the federal government to Take or explain a position on an issue or policy:

Do Not Capitulate to the Turkish Government by delivering Cleric Fethullah Gulen.

Created by A.Z. on July 19, 2016

President Erdogan of Turkey has consistently opposed western values and squashed liberty in an attempt to quell dissent and opposition. Handing over Gulen, a moderate and civic leader, would serve only to fan the flames and further diminish the little freedom and democracy that still exists in Turkey. Not only this, but the deliverance of Gulen would likely mean his execution. On these grounds, We, the undersigned, ask the government not extradite Fethullah Gulen.
