“As for Metiner…Thanks Allah he is now at the AK Party (Justice and Development Party) and around [President Recep] Tayyip Erdoğan. May Allah protect everyone from February 28 [military memorandum] bulldozer sweeping over their minds. People are driven away. Sometimes they become radical Islamist, sometimes they are appointed as co-Chair of a socialist pro-Kurdish party, sometimes they go back and forth between Sharia and Democracy, sometimes they say ‘If I have to submit, then I submit’…I wish they’ve settled down”.
“Metiner’e gelince… Elhamdülillah o şimdi Ak Parti’de ve Tayyip Erdoğan’ın çevresinde. Allah herkesi zihinlerinin üzerinden 28 Şubat buldozeri geçilmesinden korusun. İnsanlar savrulur savrulur. Kimi zaman radikal İslamcı olur, kimi zaman sosyalist Kürtçü partinin başkan yardımcılığına gelir, kimi zaman Şeriat — Demokrasi arasında gider gelir, kimi zaman “Biatsa biat” der… Dilerim durulmuş olsun.”
