Turks have a habit of blaming things on Kurds, so they might be getting everyone’s story straight.

Meanwhile, Obama is still trying to “untangle the motives” for the Orlando attack.

Don't rush him!

I wonder about the CNN guy at start of this thread...he was there.

This seems to be ongoing...no word of caught or killed terrorists yet.

Hey! I’ve got a great idea...let’s bring in as many of these people as possible before January 20.

It could be a club the diplomatic corps’ kids prefer. Only seeing dark hair in the rubbernecking crowd outside, so maybe it’s mostly the kids of rich Turks.

Excellent Point. I was not sure of the reason; yours is very good. My point was in the Muslim world, someone is attacking
someone else all the time and it is hard to keep track.

Suppose some of the vics might be well-connected and that could pose a prob for Erdogan, but that news will come out PDQ anyway. Maybe Erdogan’s about to do another round up of perps/fall guys and doesn’t want the surprise spoiled.

Yes, an upscale club with Turks and probably some foreigners just out celebrating the New Year. ISIS or an associated group likely doing the terrorist act since mixed sex nightclubs are “Haram” - Acts that are haram are typically prohibited in the religious texts of the Quran and the Sunnah. The category of haram is the highest status of prohibition.

St. Nicklaus predates mohamed, and as it always has been and still is mohamed’s followers use violence and intimidation to spread their cult.

Holy mackerel. 100 dead? Really wondering what kind of security this place had, especially catering to the clientele it did.

The Pence daughter has been studying abroad. She was in Turkey studying Arabic She was not with the family election night. Don’t know if she has come home or not. All information on Her FB page was taken down shortly after Trump chose her father for VP

“My point was in the Muslim world, someone is attacking

Point is well taken. Conflict in the Islamic world can take on so many traits. Religious sect issues aside, there are also racial, political, cultural, lingual, tribal, turf, clan and family conflicts.
