Istanbul has emerged as the region's capital for many dissident Arab politicians, activists, rebels and journalists, who are operating out of the Turkey after receiving the go ahead from the President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's government, wrote Bun Hubbard, Beirut Bureau Chief for The New York Times.
"Firebrands from Egypt, Yemen and elsewhere across the Arab world take on the Mideast's oppressive governments'' from the relative safety of Turkey, Hubbard wrote, while underlining that they are carving out new lives, carrying on the fight from afar and avoiding jail terms.
Muslim Brotherhood members from Egypt; rebel fighters from Syria and Libya; political activists from Iraq and Yemen; dissidents from Saudi Arabia and Jordan; even former members of the Kuwaiti Parliament all ended up in Turkey, whose president is lauded by the Arab world, it said.
Azzam Tamimi, founder of Al Hiwar TV, a platform for Arab dissidents, said, "There is nowhere else to go" and Istanbul is a good choice because it's easier to get guests for its talk shows as they already in the country.
While offering an attractive combination of a Muslim-majority city, close to their homelands, with sophisticated communications infrastructure and a relatively tolerant atmosphere, Turkey remains more open to Arab refugees than the United States or Europe, the New York Times article said.
And for Erdoğan, it added, welcoming Arab exiles is a continuation of the support offered to the uprisings themselves.
However, the irony is Turkey's internal opposition news media alongside its openness to Arab dissidents protesting human rights abuses, it noted.
Thousands of academics, lawyers, journalists and opposition politicians have been jailed, in Turkey following the July 2016 coup attempt. At least 180 news outlets have been shuttered since the failed putsch, according to Amnesty International.
So the Arab exiles here not only have greater freedom of expression than they would at home, but often have far more leeway than their Turkish counterparts.
"I have a mission to do in Istanbul, and the Turks don't get involved in our political or media work," Ayman Nour, a former lawmaker who ran for president in Egypt more than a decade ago, said.
Nour, who spent time in prison there and fled the country after President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi seized power in a military coup in 2013, fled to Lebanon first, but felt unsafe there. His next stop was Turkey.
Tawakkol Karman, who won the Nobel Prize in 2011 for her role in the uprising in Yemen, is also part of Nour's team. She oversees an Istanbul-based television station, Balqees TV, whose original office was stormed in 2014 by Houthi rebels when they took over Sana.
"The most important thing is to keep the Arab Spring alive and to keep fighting for freedom and democracy," Karman said while speaking on her media efforts in Istanbul.
There are some exceptions to the treatments of certain dissidents, the article stressed, pointing to Saudi Arabia, whose citizens are asked to remain quiet so as not to damage Turkish-Saudi ties.
İstanbul's Arab character has been amplified over the last few years, as the city has received its fair share of some 3.6 million refugees fleeing the war in Syria.
"They don't follow you, they don't bother you, and they clearly supported the revolution," Majdi Nema, former spokesman for the Army of Islam, a powerful insurgent group that fought Syrian government troops, told the New York Times.

Over 400,000 People Demand a Postmaster General Who Supports the Public Postal Service
Petitions Delivered to Postal Board of Governors on Jan. 6
On Jan. 6, APWU national officers, fellow union members, organizers and activists, many from organizations in A Grand Alliance to Save Our Public Postal Service (Grand Alliance), gathered at USPS Headquarters to demand the Postal Board of Governors preserve the public Postal Service.
The rally concluded a hugely successful petition drive launched after current Postmaster General Megan Brennan announced in October that she would retire on Jan. 31, 2020.
400,000 people signed the petition supporting A Grand Alliance's demand that the Postal Board of Governors appoint a Postmaster General who will stand up for quality, universal service and the continued public ownership of the USPS. The Board of Governors has the responsibility of appointing the next Postmaster General.
"We're going in with a simple demand," President Mark Dimondstein said at the rally. "We need a leader of this organization – a new Postmaster General – who believes [in], who will uphold, and who will fight for the public mission of the United States Postal Service…We demand a vibrant, public Postal Service for generations to come!"
Standing together against privatization
APWU Secretary-Treasurer Elizabeth Powell emceed the rally, opening the event with a powerful statement of purpose: "Today, we have more than 400,000 signatures to the Board of Governors demanding that they appoint a Postmaster General that will defend universal service and the public United States Postal Service."
Speakers at the rally condemned the White House for their explicit attacks on the public Postal Service, demanding the administration stop its push for privatization.
"We all know what privatization means. It means they want to cut your wages; they want to take away your benefits; they want to destroy the great reliability of this agency. They want people to make profit off of us. We're not going to let that happen," said AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka.
Social Security Works President Nancy Altman compared the attacks on the USPS to the ongoing attempts to cut Social Security. "The American people are with us," Altman said. "They know across the ideology that the Postal Service is vital to this country, that Social Security is vital to this country."
"We recognize that it is our US Postal Service that opened up more jobs and provided more opportunities for more Americans from various backgrounds…than any other organization or any other industry in our country," said NAACP Washington Bureau Director Hilary Shelton. He spoke about how the fight against privatization is "central to the issues of civil rights protections for all Americans and American families."
Melanie Campbell, President and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, emphasized the importance of the continued struggle against privatization. "We're in for the fight of our lives…to make sure that our Postal Service remains the people's Postal Service," Campbell said.
Following the rally, APWU President Mark Dimondstein led a delegation inside the USPS Headquarters to deliver the petitions to Postmaster General Brennan, who accepted them on behalf of the Board of Governors.
APWU Pushed Petition
The APWU-led US Mail Not for Sale campaign worked with the Grand Alliance to mobilize a response immediately when Brennan announced her retirement in October. President Dimondstein announced the Grand Alliance petition at the late October APWU All-Craft Conference in Las Vegas.
The petition was spread in person, by mail, and online, with APWU members, other postal workers, and community allies joining the US Mail Not for Sale campaign.
As part of the petition drive, the APWU released a new video advertisement during the holiday season, spreading the word to millions of viewers that "No One Gets Left Off the List." The APWU also placed a print advertisement in the Washington Post on Jan. 6 and in The Hill on Jan. 7, reaching over 1 million people.
The APWU's work successfully increased public awareness of the White House's desire to privatize the Postal Service, leading to articles from media organizations including NBC, Fortune, Bloomberg, In These Times, Huffington Post, Government Executive, Federal News Network, and the American Prospect.
Message Delivered
By the end of the drive, over 400,000 people added their name to the petition demanding the Board of Governors preserve the public Postal Service. The day of the rally, the USPS announced Brennan would delay her retirement until a suitable replacement was found.
A new date for Brennan's retirement has not yet been announced. We will post updates as they become available.

A Sparkling Proposal for Riddle's Jewelry
Family-owned Riddle's Jewelry opened its first store in Webster, South Dakota, in 1959. More than half a century and many stores later, Riddle's still prides itself on offering a warm, friendly atmosphere in all of its locations across nine states. Lighting plays an especially important role at Riddle's, from the subtle shimmer of precious stones to the setting of an elegant, inviting atmosphere.
THE EXPECTATION
"We began researching LED jewelry store lighting about five years ago and got really serious about two years ago when Dakota Supply Group introduced us to GE," said Dan Casanova, vice president of Riddle's. "After looking at a number of options, GE's LED replacement lamps offered the best combination of energy savings and the best look for our merchandise once it's out of the cases."
Riddle's Jewelry locations house between 80 and 210 spotlight fixtures, depending on store size. The retailer is moving from 75-watt halogen lamps to GE's 20-watt PAR38 LED replacement lamps.
GE and Dakota Supply assisted Riddle's in analyzing rebate opportunities from local utilities for each store, then applying for the rebates as rollouts occurred. At its Rapid City, South Dakota, store, Riddle's received a rebate of $11.25 per lamp. At another in Minnesota, Xcel Energy provided a rebate of $27 per lamp.
RESULTS & BENEFITS
At locations that have used GE's LED replacement lamps for more than one year, Riddle's has seen lighting energy cost savings between $100 and $150 a month in smaller stores (80-100 fixtures) and from $175 to $225 in larger stores (up to 210 fixtures), based on a $.10 per kWh rate and 4,000 hours of operation annually. Once all 57 locations are complete, Riddle's expects to save about $100,000 a year in lighting energy costs not including reduced maintenance as the result of longer-lived LED technology.
These savings are also the result of reduced loads on building cooling systems?each Riddle's store, even those in colder climates, typically runs its air conditioning throughout the year because of the heat generated by in-store halogen lighting. GE's new LED replacement lamps stay much cooler than the halogen bulbs, and though Riddle's has not yet recorded exact load reductions, store managers have reported a noticeable decrease in the cooling demand on HVAC units.
"With rebates, we expect a 14-month ROI per store. In markets with no rebates, payback becomes 20 to 22 months, which is still a good return," said Casanova, adding that Riddle's plans to specify GE's LED lamps for all jewelry store lighting projects moving forward.
"Store managers have been amazed the way the bright, white LED lighting accentuates the natural brilliance of the diamonds. With halogen, they looked good. With LED, they look amazing."

The highly anticipated, Zeppelin, an upscale restaurant featuring inspired seasonal food and handcrafted cocktails, will open December 26 at 235 W. Tremont Ave.
The dinner-only restaurant is located right next to Bang Bang Burger's sister concept, Bang Bang Bites, and the new Common Market South End. Here, you can expect small plates, large plates, craft cocktails, wine, beer and local charcuterie and cheeses.
Vince Giancarlo, former chef de cuisine and executive chef at Mama Ricotta's, corporate executive chef at Cantina 1511 Park Road and executive chef of BAKU, is the executive chef at Zeppelin.
Another familiar name, Larry Suggs, formerly of the Punch Room and Duckworth's The Cellar, will supply guests with intricate cocktails and beverages with homemade syrups, infusions and barrel-aging in collaboration with Giancarlo.
"We're pulling the same mentality that's in the kitchen to the bar, where it's very ingredient-focused and fresh-driven," Giancarlo said, whose restaurant name references the early 1900s balloon-like gas-filled aircraft.
The Queen City-inspired, steampunk atmosphere occupies a 2,300 square foot space with an outside patio, stretching 750 square feet along the West Tremont Avenue corridor.
Zeppelin will be open Tuesday through Sunday, from 5 p.m. – 2 a.m. The restaurant will host a grand opening party on January 5.
For those wanting to switch jobs in the New Year, Zeppelin is still hiring. Email careers@zeppelinsouthend.com.
