Two suicide bombers open fire before detonating their explosives at Turkey's biggest airport.

At least 28 people have been killed and 60 wounded in twin explosions at the main airport in Istanbul, the city's govenor has said.

Two attackers opened fire before blowing themselves up at the entrance to Istanbul Ataturk Airport's international terminal, an official said, citing information from the interior ministry.

Police fired shots to try to stop the attackers but they detonated their explosives, the official said.

A witness told NBC News that he saw a police officer diving to tackle one of the attackers - who then detonated his bomb.

There is only one solution left: Make practicing islam illegal, destroy ALL copies hard and soft of the koran and incinerate all mosques, mecca and any other “holy” place they crowd to.

Lock any adherents up on an island with no escape. islam and the evil it portrays and practices will then fade away like Nazism.

Send the Shariah-lovers back to the desert, provide them with camels, swords, clothing, and animal skin water containers, and dig a few wells, all at Saudi expense. Underage harem concubines not included.

Muslims killing muslims. Shite vs. Sunni’s. They have been killing each other for 1600 years and the idiot diplomats think this just some bunch of radicals doing the killing. Wrong. They hate each other. They hate Jews. They hate Christians. Nothing is going to make them happy except an all muzzie world.

Almost all of America’s major airports are completely encircled with taxis/vehicles operated by Muslims. It’s a time bomb ready to detonate.
