Candar's column, which was subsequently published in other media outlets, had called for military officers involved in a smear campaign to be "punished." The reported smear campaign, named the "Special Action Plan," was first disclosed by Nazli Ilicak, a columnist for the newspaper Yeni Safak and a Member of Parliament, on 21 October.
The decision to discontinue Candar's column is deeply troubling and raises serious concerns with regard to editorial independence.
In view of the fact that Candar was merely providing further comments on an issue already in the public realm, it would appear self-censorship has played a role in the outcome of an editorial decision, thus compromising the accountability that the media is supposed to ensure and provide in a democracy.

I can't exactly remember a crossroads, but more like a T-junction with the north-south one ending on the east-west highway.
the east-west one probably also included the "westwind" part of Candar, so it's pretty much located to the north of Cyador, consistent with above T-junction.

Dans le contexte des attentats qui viennent de frapper Istanbul, Cengiz Candar reproche précisément à Yeni Safak et à l’AKP de ne pas prendre suffisamment leurs distances avec les idées wahhabites et salafistes qui alimentent la vague de terreur qui vient de frapper la Turquie.
En effet, selon Cengiz Candar, « ce n’est pas un choc des civilisations qui nous attend mais bien une confrontation entre musulmans et musulmans ».
