[Regnum] Participants in an anti-Israeli protest in the city of Adana in Turkey tried to break into the Incirlik military air base, DHA reported.

Law enforcement officers used tear gas and water cannons against the protesters, who called their action “Freedom Convoy for Palestine.”

The action was organized by the Turkish Humanitarian Aid Foundation “Human Rights and Freedoms” (İHH).
That's the Muslim Brotherhood in Turkey, a pet cause of neo-Ottoman sultan Erdogan Recep Tayip I, “the much beloved”. Key projects have been trucking supplies to ISIS in Syria, and several iterations of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla, which was intended to break the siege of Gaza in 2010, 2011, 2015, and 2016, none of which succeeded in their mission.
Its participants demanded the closure of the American military base, since the United States is helping Israel in attacks on the Gaza Strip. The head of İHH Latif Kaya announced the killing of Gaza civilians by the Israeli army.

“Hospitals, refugee camps, schools, bakeries, cafeterias and every other place you can think of have been attacked, and infrastructure and structures in Gaza have been completely destroyed by occupying Israel,” he said.

The head of the İHH office in Adana, Muhittin Gili , said that in 29 days since the start of hostilities, Israel dropped 18 thousand tons of bombs on Gaza, killing about 10,000 civilians and injuring about 25,000.

One and a half million people were forced to leave their homes. Many health workers, volunteers and journalists died. Gili said protesters were marching on Incirlik.

The convoy, leaving Istanbul, drove to Incirlik, where it was joined by other protesters in cars decorated with Palestinian flags.

#1 Why are we still in Turkey? The same brass that claimed our position in Pacific would be totally compromised by losing Subic and Clark decades ago, claim that its sooooooo important. If Americans get back their republic there are a lot of senior officers that need to be 'retired'.

#3 Why are we still in Turkey?

Because you (NATO) are still fighting Russia?

#4 #1 'Retired', you say? At this point on the curve I'd say it's gone a might far for that. Perhaps a nice Soviet style gathering in the forest. At least it would be a language they'd understand.
