From Wikipedia on the word 'Police' Police of the Soviet-era Eastern Europe were (or are, in some cases, as in Belarus) called the militsiya. The Irish police are called the Garda Síochána ("guardians of the peace"); a police officer is called a garda. And although the word "police" comes from Greek (see next section), the Greek police is Αστυνομία (Astynomia). ================== What will you call the Turkish Police @ Taksim Istanbul today? Fascist Marionettes?
