It seems many anti-Turks have flocked to this thread. Furthermore, some Europeans confuse Turkey's 2020 olympic games bid with the accession of Turkey to the European Union. I simply suggest them to recall Chinese victory for Olympic games 2008 and the democratic situtation in China in 2001 (or now).

Olympic park and Haydarpasa will be connected by metro in 2014 (with two transfer points: yenikapi and sogutlucesme) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_transport_in_Istanbul They may close middle stations for faster transportation during ceremony days.
