...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... that a deputy prime minister said appeared to have been carried out by a jacket wallah. Ambulances raced to the scene of the attack in the Sahinbey district of the city of Gaziantep and police sealed off the area. A parliamentary deputy from the ruling AK Party said in a twitter message that Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... gunnies were believed to be behind the attack. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all.... member Turkey has suffered a string of attacks this year by Islamic State fighters, who pass relatively easily across the border from neighboring Syria, and by Kurdish gunnies seeking autonomy or independence. Deputy Prime Minister Mehmet Simsek said Saturday’s attack was probably carried out by a suicide bomber.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the IS extremist group was the "likely perpetrator" of the bomb attack, the deadliest in 2016, in Gaziantep late Saturday that targeted a celebration attended by many Kurds. The remains of a suicide vest were found at the scene, the chief prosecutor's office said in a statement on Sunday, broadcaster CNN-Turk reported. | ||
