A very strange article that mentions dark tourism
This really weird article (by far the weirdest I've ever linked to) warns you not to throw away your dictionaries in case Google collapses. I'm pretty sure I still have mine somewhere...
Then they say something about who the EU president should not be. And then, finally they get to the travel stuff, dark tourism. Apparently dark tourism could lead to "the situation that wars and misery are created for potential dark tourist benefits. And that would signify the moral end of humanity."
Of course, most dark tourism is not so extreme. Lots of people visit Ground Zero or Hiroshima or the site of some other disaster.

Weird indeed, but obviously a type of propaganda news item...seeking to stir up even more unrest in the Middle East and elsewhere. Another earlier article by the same writer, same Turkish newspaper, speaks of the "Bush man," the subject of torture, etc., in a derogatory manner. Not trying to stir up politics, but this is definitely not an ally!
