hear me any longer or if we have any of our reporting staff, or clearance that they're okay. if we can get our producing staff in istanbul some clearance that arwa and her staff are all right. we want to make sure that is okay. here is the other issue. these are protesters -- many of them -- have spent days trying to get a message out. usually about the green space. usually about the innocuous. it has evolved into something different. the prime minister of this country has said that he will have none of this. he is using an iron fist, at least with the rhetoric he has been employing in trying to quell what is happening in his streets. to say "this is not turkey. this is not the way we want our international image. i will not stand for this protest in our streets." not being met well. when you send in the riot police in this kind of demonstration with 10,000 people there is bound to be death and injuries. and there have been. upwards of 5,000 injuries so far in the past days and weeks of the protest.
