For a reason that escapes me, the BBC puts this article about a bomb blast in Ankara, Turkey, into their 'Europe' section.
Everything East of the Bosphorus in Istanbul is in Asia, and Turkey has so far failed to be admitted into the EU - thankfully.
Judging by recent Turkish political behaviour, it would appear their direction is heading more Mid-East than West. But the BBC wants us to think of them as Europeans.
