Torture and beatings of surrendering soldiers continued at police stations, too.
In a disturbing video published on social media and some Turkish newspapers, a police officer threatens a soldier with raping his 10-months-old baby.

Prayer reminder for Americans caught up in this hellhole
LOL who the heck is that dude... I’m just not down with that cultural reference at all... must be funny as hell though.
It’s from a classic movie called “Hollywood Knights”.
“For a nation of pigs, it sure’s funny you don’t eat ‘em.”
Apparently they are at least not cannibals.
Had this been Bush the tie in to U. S. Policy would be in the story.
They must not be allowed to disarm us and turn us in servile subjects.

Lawrence could have brought this on much earlier with his ‘misguided’ plan to unite the Arab nations. The Turks got to him didn’t they?
Off Subject but is Judge Napolatono on Trump’s short list for SCOTUS?
Simple solution. Islamics are known cowards, now murdering their soldiers.
1) Their military is now weakened.
2) Trump marches in unhindered
3) US Marines boot out Islamics over to nearest dictatorship
4) Create a Turkey Safe Zone
5) Deport the world’s Refugees to Safe Zone
6) WORLD PEACE!
Wow I am good at this Foriegn Policy stuff.
Bet I can adopt a fake accent just like Henry Kissinger.
IMO Trump knows we are going to have to kick Turkey out of NATO fairly soon hence his remarks about whether the US would automatically defend any NATO ally if they were attacked.
