The Turkish Kurds were marching and holding their peace rally because the Muslim Brotherhoodish government of Erdogan has been waging war on their brothers in Iraq.

Those Kurds have been fighting IS.

Erdogan is short a majority in the Parliament after recent elections and needs “Turkish Nationalist” support to maintain power.

I think Erdogan may be trying to provoke the Kurds to violence against him so he can ban the Kurdish Party in the parliament and or elections. Erdogan could reconfigure parliament and maybe get his majority if Kurds don’t have a party to vote for.

Nah, green, yellow and blood red.

The blood red looks familiar for the area and culture.

Those pics look staged. Nobody in the background is acting like the people hamming it up in the foreground

That’s because they don’t want it, in spite of calling their religion a religion of peace.

Watch this. The people blown up today didn’t vote for Erdogan. They’re his victims.

My guess is that a lot of spectators converged in after the blast, while the real victims have moved away or were carried away from the blast site.
