12% is, by some numbers, less than the % of the french population that is muslim (which is reported to be between 9 and 13%). Whether it's a big or a small number does not matter - it puts things in perspective.

And turkey is not a good country, I never claimed it was (hoooly hell did I not claim that). So your numbers are absolutely meaningless.

True, you never claimed that, however you implied, as if "only 12% that favour Sharia law" is some statistically insignificant #. Maybe my numbers are absolutely meaningless as you say but so is your contribution to the discussion so far.
Fair enough, you're right the number was not very relevant.
