There are two brands of terror targeting Turkey now: Kurdish and radical Islamist. Many of the victims were very young. Quote:

One of my sister's friends was just outside the club during the attack.

Sometimes the old solutions are the best solutions.

What a smart idea. No doubt that would solve everything.

Destroying humanity would solve it's problems but I think it is not a constructive way to go around things.

For me the most worrying aspect is the realisation that there is no end in sight nor is there likely to be.

To use the words of a Hungarian - "it is a tragedy of man to endure and to believe".
On topic - well, we would get through it. The economic revolution with automisation that is comming worries me more.

You're right Jim. If they take back Mosul, and Aleppo and push out Daesh, the insurgency will go on unless the Sunni's decide different. Don't see that happening at all.

I wonder what role the Turkish secret service plays in the Reina attack. The attack on the nightclub plays into the cards of Erdoghan and the cards of the conservatives. Friday, the boss of the state minstry of religion has condemned New Years Eve parties and Western lifestyle, and the club was on an unofficial black list of conservatives. The police placed one 20 year old officer in front of the club, despite massive threats against it.
Erdoghan has a record of playing foul. I do not say the attacker may not have had links to IS. What is more relaistic to think about is that maybe warnings of an imminent threat were supressed and secret service or police withheld info that indicated that an attack was coming. Think that is unrealistic? I say again: Erdoghan has a record of playing foul, and he has killed yria and Russia long before 2016, repeatedly. The whole "coup" against the government three months ago smells like having been a staged event. No, you better do not rule anything out regarding Erdoghan. I'm preaching this since over ten years now. Meanwhile German politicians had to learn from German intelligence service that the Turkish DITIB Imams that the Turkish state sends to Germany, spy for the Turkish secret service and agitate against the constitutonal order of Germany. Has there been a political outcry, a protest, a single word of anger? Of course not. Mind you, its Germany. You rather make a cactus speaking.

It's a smarter idea than letting your enemies know that your best deterrent again naughty behavior was never on the table to begin with.

Turkey has arrested a number of people of Uighur origin over a deadly nightclub attack that killed 39, the state-run news agency reports.
