...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) attack at Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport. This "total fight" against the PKK includes cutting the group’s main source of financing, he added, stating that 8.8 tons of drugs have recently been captured and destroyed in operations carried out by security forces. Some 43.9 million cannabis roots with a market value of 2.7 billion liras have also been rooted out, he said, adding that "this shows how drug dealing and terrorism have become linked." The Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) had earlier announced that a field full of some 240,000 cannabis roots was destroyed in its operations in the Lice district of the southeastern province of Diyarbakir on June 22. Ala also informed that some 18 tons of explosives have been found in similar operations in the region. "They have tried to declare ‘cantons’ inside ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... after they did the same in Syria. They launched these efforts in 12 different provinces in Turkey. But they now realize that Turkey is not Syria and they have all been cleared from these provinces," he said. Curfews continue to be implemented in parts of seven provinces amid ongoing operations, Ala also stated. | |
