Fresh Diplomatic Scandal After Erdogan Accuses Germany Of "Fascist Actions"

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-05/fresh-diplomatic-scandal-after-erdogan-accuses-germany-fascist-actions

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan accused Germany of "fascist actions" reminiscent of "Nazi practices" in a growing diplomatic rift over the cancellation of political rallies aimed at propping support for him among the 1.5 million Turks living in Germany. Erdogan's latest outburst on Sunday took place days after German authorities withdrew permission for two rallies by Turkish citizens in German cities, at which Turkish ministers were to urge a "Yes" vote in a referendum next month on granting Erdogan sweeping new presidential, almost dictatorial according to some, powers.

Props to Germany. Can't call them a good example, but definitely are a horrible warning.
