| 2015-07-21 |
| These major events have not been picked up in the West quite yet but it is major and will be news. Kurdish young people about to cross over from Turkey to Kobane, Syria to build a play ground for Kurdish children are massacred.... One Turkish Soldier is killed in clashes with armed Kurds in response to the massacre.  Attack on an Instanbul, Turkey police check point. Instanbul is tense and a war zone. Kurds are holding Erdogan responsible and are clashing with Turkey in armed confrontations. |

| #9 Me thinks we should talk to the Ruskies about carving up some Turkey and giving the Balkin bits back to the Slavic nation of Russia's choice if they assist. Posted by rjschwarz If I had to guess, I'd say Champ and Brennan haves dispatched their secret thrown benders [less Cuban/Persian team members] and the talks have been ongoing for some time. |

| #8 Demographically the Kurds will own Turkey in a decade or two of something doesn't change. I've always felt the Turks would be wise to push for emigration to Kurdistan beyond their borders. I forget Turks are Moslems so logical/peaceful solutions do not compute. Me thinks we should talk to the Ruskies about carving up some Turkey and giving the Balkin bits back to the Slavic nation of Russia's choice if they assist. |

#4 ru article is interesting:“The administrators in Ankara who hurl threats at the HDP and pat the heads of IS are partners in this barbarity,” said a statement by Selahattin Demirtas, the HDP co-chair. The military wing of the Kurdish independence movement, the Kurdistan Workers’ party (PKK) accused the government of “supporting and cultivating” Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), following the attack which killed at least 31 people and injured scores of others in the town of Suruc, on the southern border with Syria. The Kurdish parliamentary wing, the People’s Democracy Party (HDP) which increased its vote share in the parliamentary election earlier this summer, agreed, despite the Turkish government publicly condemning the suicide attack. http://www.rt.com/news/310306-police-kurds-protests-istanbul/ |

| #3 The Turk-Kurd conflict has been going on for quite a while. The run-on sentence in the headline doesn't make the article any better. |
