Protests over Turkey's inaction on ISIL turn violent in Ankara

2014-10-10

[Iran Press TV] Security forces in Turkey's capital, Ankara, have clashed with pro-Kurdish protesters, who are furious at the Turkish government's inaction over the ISIL terrorists' advance in Syria's Kurdish border town of Kobani.

On Thursday, police forces in Ankara used water cannon and fired tear gas at the protesters in a bid to disperse them. The angry demonstrators, in turn, threw stones and Molotov cocktails at the police.

Similar festivities between the police and protesters were also reported in Istanbul.

No response yet from Erdogan or any of his Boyz.

* MANILA TIMES > JIHADISTS SEIZE 40% OF SYRIA'S KOBANI, MASSACRE OF KURDS FEARED.

> RUSSIA TODAY = ISIS SEIZE CONTROL OF 40% OF KOBANE - TOP US OFFICIAL.
> DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > ISIS BEARING DOWN ON BAGHDAD EVEN AS WORLD WATCHES KOBANI SEIZURE | FOX NEWS.

IMO this new ISIS/ISIL threat to Iraq's ANBAR province is indirectly an ISIS warning to Iraqi Shias [Eastern Iraq] + ultimately to IRAN proper.

The ISIS/ISIL is now threatening to attack both TURKEY + now IRAN.

> Also from DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS = [Twitter]ISLAMIC STATE + KURDISH PESHMERGA IN FIERCE NEW BATTLE NEAR KIRKUK.

VERSUS

* SAME > KOBANI ABANDONED? KERRY SAYS FALL OF TOWN NOT A [US] "STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE".

US SecState Jaawhn affirming the earlier Public = MSM-Net statements of US State SpoxBabe JANE, VICTORIA NULAND, + the USDOD, ETC.

OTOH, AS PER THE MSM-NET THE BAMMER REPOR DOESN'T HAVE ANY STRATEGEERY ANYWAY FOR SYRIA, AT LEAST NOT AT THE MOMENT - BY DEFININTION, THE BAMMER THUS HAS NO STRATEGY FOR THE RELIEF OF THE KURDS IN KOBANE/KOBANI OR OTHER???
