(Or maybe it was more Greek ruins than Greece does.) I'd love to visit the country, and it was in our top three travel list for several years.
I suspect it's safe. Turks are more European than Middle Eastern, and I think they're proud that they're a secular state rather than a theocracy.
That said, I'm pretty much just avoiding the Muslim world these days. I'll wait another 20 years until it's safe again. These things always run in cycles.
