There have been many developments in Turkey in the past few days and there is a small possibility of positive resolution in the next few days but one thing has happened today that is very interesting.
Yesterday and today PM Erdoğan and other government officials have made pompous beligerent statements about their patience running out and the park being cleared out in 24 hours.
The PM also tried to play a paternalistic populist mother card, calling on mothers to come and take their children home and out of harm's way.
In response tonight a large number of mothers have gone to Taksim Square and Gezi Park and are forming a human chain around the park and the square.
