| [Hurriyet Daily News] Reiterating charges against the caretaker government of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) over their intelligence and security failure leading up to the Oct. 10 double suicide kaboom attack which killed at least 102 people in the capital city of Ankara, the deputy chair of the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) has suggested more people were imprisoned for tweeting in ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... than those who have been imprisoned due to their suspected links with the 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.... of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). "Today, the number of those who are in prisons in Turkey for tweeting is more than those who are under arrest because of [their suspected links with] ISIL," CHP deputy chair Sezgin Tanrikulu said late on Oct. 17, during a visit to the eastern province of Malatya. Tanrikulu and a group of CHP deputies were in Malatya to attend the funeral ceremony of Ata Önder Atabay, a teacher maimed in the Ankara bombings who departed this vale of tears in hospital on Oct. 16. "Arresting and chasing everybody is easy but it is not easy only to chase, arrest and investigate ISIL which is at [President] Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him... 's and the AKP's doorstep. If there weren't this protection, this massacre would not have happened," Tanrikulu said. |
