When I read 4 dead and 38 wounded, I expected it was a usual Chicago weekend shooting toll and was a bit surprised to see another place.
So conditioned to chaos.
Istanbul not sure what to make of this yet terrorism, drug lab or just an accident?
In Erdogan’s Turkey?
It’s a message from someone…Iran? Moscow? Washington?
It’s now 6 dead and 53 wounded and sounds like a female suicide bomber possibly indicated:
Excerpt:
At least six people were killed and 53 others injured when an explosion hit Istanbul’s popular pedestrian Istiklal Avenue on Sunday. The casualties were confirmed by official sources.
“The relevant units of our state are working to find the perpetrators behind this heinous attack,” President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in a press conference before his departure for Indonesia to attend the G-20 summit.
“Initial observations show a woman played a role in the explosion,” he said and stated that “based on initial information from the governor, the explosion could be suspected act of terrorism.”
The Turkish president also vowed that those who waged terrorism against the Turkish nation would fail.
Does Istiklal mean “freedom”?
It means: “Independence”
Interesting place to have an explosion.
Could also be the new KGB in action behind the scenes?
Everyone nowadays especially the British Intelligence crowd want to dump on Putin.
Sorry Erdogan is a thorn in the Global System’s side too friendly to Russia in the Ukraine conflict he needs to “see the light” and bow down to Ukraine among other things.
Erdogan took billions from China to build the new Istanbul canal.
Erdogan is in bed with the wrong countries as far as the Global Forces are concerned.
Erdogan thinks he & Turkey are a replacement for a new Ottoman empire! Also, he’s buttering the bread on both sides during the UK/RU war. He’s keeping RU somewhat at bay, to me that’s ok even with inflation at 85%.
Istanbul, not Constanchicago.
“Istanbul not sure what to make of this yet terrorism, drug lab or just an accident?”
ISIS tweakers OSHA violation.
Good one.
