The Turks have gagged their own media. Did the Turks also ask/demand foreign media follow suit? If so, are foreign media complying?

What a sickening thing to say.

I work in a hospital in Orlando. I was there during the terrorist attack.

Q: Has the Turkish gov’t issued a gag order like this before, regarding previous attacks, anyone recall?

Wonder if the gag order means one or more of the victims is/was famous/high profile?

I don’t know if they have or not, but the gag order (to me) is akin to not wanting to admit it was muslims..

They stage periodic fake coups, sure they’re capable of press gags.

Erdogan’s in a pickle: our transition means he can’t trust his ‘allies’ right now.

I think last year during the attempted coup they had a brownout of sorts. Erdogan is a ruthless sob.

Well, seeing these were likely kids of rich Westerners....

There might be some Westeners, but I would expect most victims are Turks. There are plenty of secular Turks who like to have a good time and don’t take Islam too seriously. Some like to dance and drink and the women don’t all cover up.

I know they can do it :-) I’m just curious as to why in this case? Is the censorship general practice in the event of a suspected terrorist attack, or is there something unusual going on with this one?

“Well he could be a hard line Sunni and the Shiites attacked or he could be a hard line Shiite and the Sunnis attacked.”

More likely, it’s fanatical Wahhabi, Sunni ISIS types targeting moderate Sunni Turks.
