Turkey 'suicide bomb': many killed in Ankara blast

At least 30 people have been killed and more than 100 wounded in a terrorist attack on a peace rally in the centre of the Turkish capital, according to reports.

Twin explosions outside Ankara’s main train station on Saturday morning appear to have targeted hundreds of people who had gathered to protest against violence between authorities and the Kurdish separatist group, the PKK.

Might be time to seriously consider a massive coalition of G8 and industrialized nations to just lay waste to the middle east then roll in and occupy it.

Location - time - seriousness of results versus effort - retaliation. Ease of location - ease of access of location - response time......ect...ect...ect.

Could be a false flag by Russia.They could be using it as an excuse to go in.

Lol, how would the bombing give Russia license to attack Turkey?

Supposedly part of the new U.S. strategy is to arm the Kurds. Turkey could be a mess in six months.

It would be more likely that the Turks themselves were involved.

Turkey hit by protests over government response to suicide bombings

Impromptu protests began in Istanbul on Saturday evening in response to the Turkish government’s handling of a terror attack in the capital that killed more than 90 people. Hundreds of protesters chanting anti-government slogans gathered in the city, blaming the authorities for the twin bomb attacks that targeted a peace rally in Ankara earlier that day.

That is both the first reasonable and first non-gross thing I have ever heard Delta say.

This will be tragic if it turns out that any non-muslims died.

Delta has good days and bad days, like most of us. Sometimes he can be very reasonable, and at other times he seems like a typical libtard.

You just have to take him as he is at the moment. I wonder if at times he is a sock and several people share his account.

I seem to be missing the point to your post. People needlessly killed by a bomb while advocating for peace is hardly different from people needlessly being gunned down while in a learning environment.

Excellent article. I recommend reading it in its entirety. I grabbed a little extra because the part about China's is good to know.
Turkey is the next failed state in the Middle East: Spengler
By David P. Goldman on October 10, 2015 in AT Top Writers, David P. Goldman, Middle East, Spengler

...
Less obvious but no less ominous is the deterioration of Sino-Turkish relations due to Ankara’s covert support for the East Turkestan Independence Movement, a terrorist organization active among the Uyghurs of Western China. Despite official assurances, Turkey continues to provide safe passage to Turkey to thousands of Chinese Uyghurs via Southeast Asia, some of whom are fighting with ISIS in Syria. Thailand claims that Uyghur militants carried out the Aug. 17 bombing at Bangkok’s Erawan shrine after Thailand sent 109 Chinese Uyghurs back to China.

Erdogan has suffered not merely a collapse of his foreign policy, but a public humiliation by countries that backed his regime in the interests of regional stability–and this just before November’s parliamentary elections. After the Kurdish-backed HDP party took 13% of the national vote in last June’s elections and removed Erdogan’s majority in parliament, Erdogan called new elections rather than accept a coalition government. Erdogan also revived military operations against Turkish Kurds in order to elicit support from Turkish nationalists, a transparent maneuver widely reported in the major media.

As the New York Times reported Aug. 5, “Having already delayed the formation of a coalition government, analysts say, Mr. Erdogan is now buttressing his party’s chances of winning new elections by appealing to Turkish nationalists opposed to self-determination for the Kurdish minority. Parallel to the military operations against the Kurds has been an effort to undermine the political side of the Kurdish movement by associating it with the violence of the P.K.K., which has also seemed eager to return to fighting.”

Instead of responding to Erdogan’s provocation, the Kurds have shelved military operations in order to concentrate on winning votes in the November elections. After the Saturday bomb attacks, Thomas Seibert noted in the Daily Beast:

Observers agreed that the Ankara blast was probably linked to a decision by the PKK rebels to suspend hostilities with Ankara. The PKK had hinted in recent days that it would declare a new ceasefire in order to boost the HDP’s election chances. The people behind the attack wanted to “prevent the ceasefire” from coming into effect, respected journalist Kadri Gursel tweeted. The PKK’s ceasefire announcement became public shortly after the attack, but the decision by the rebels had probably been taken before.​

In short, Erdogan now contemplates American heavy weapons in the hands of Syrian Kurds; the end of Turkey’s ability to provide air support for Sunni rebels in Syria; a Russian campaign to roll up the Sunni opposition, including Turkey’s assets in the field; and a collapse of his parliamentary majority due to an expanding Kurdish vote at home.

Whether the AKP government itself ordered the Ankara bombing, or simply looked the other way while ISIS conducted the bombing, both Turkey and global opinion will assume that the ghastly events in Ankara on Saturday reflect the desperation of the Erdogan regime. Regimes that resort to this sort of atrocity do not last very long.
