Caught On Video: Bomb Attacks At Turkey Peace Rally Leave 86 Dead, 186 Injured

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Just when it seemed the war effort in Syria may be peaking, with Obama on the verge of folding long-standing US efforts to remove Syria's president Assad, overnight a new tragedy struck this time in the country which too has been using ISIS as a scapegoat while it conducts its own private war against Kurd elements in the south of the country.

Earlier today, around 10am local time, Turkey’s capital Ankara, was rocked by two blasts which according to AFP have killed at least 86 demonstrators, who had gathered for a peace march, as the country grapples with mounting security threats just three weeks before snap elections. The explosions also wounded more than 186 people, the Turkish Interior Ministry said. The cause of the blasts was unclear, the ministry said, adding that it had launched an investigation.

Graphic pictures from the scene showed several bodies covered by flags and placards, with bloodstains visible and body parts scattered in the road. One hundred and twenty-six people were hurt, the country's interior ministry said.

"There was a demonstration," one eyewitness told local television cited by NBC. "I was walking next to a stage rally truck. Right here, behind two banners, an explosion went off. We lay on the ground. The second bomb went off there. There were two bombs but the one that went off here was a very strong one."

 

The clips below capture both the moment of the explosion and the ensuing panic:

 

 

“I condemn whoever did this. We came here to express our wish for peace. But we faced another massacre,” said Lami Ozgen, chairman of Confederation of Public Employees’ Unions, or KESK—one of the leading organizers of the march.

The long-ruling Justice and Development Party, or AKP, which leads the interim government, reiterated this sentiment, when its spokesman Omer Celik said that "we condemn this terrorist attack. This is a highly provocative action aimed at sabotaging the election process." Sadly, considering the credibility of the AKP and its dramatic efforts to usurp power in the process converting Turkey into quasi-despotism, one has to take anything coming out of Recep Erdogan's party with many grains of salt (case in point, the editor-in-chief of a major Turkey newspaper is being taken jail for insulting Erdogan).

According to the WSJ, witnesses at the blast site alleged that at least one of the explosions was carried out by a suicide bomber, Mr. Celik said, adding that officials investigating the attacks were unable to confirm the reports.

The atmosphere around the blast site was tense, with some demonstrators throwing rocks at armored riot-police vehicles arriving outside the station and forcing one police car to flee the area.

The march’s organizers urged calm and directed people to hospitals to give blood to the wounded, even as Health Ministry officials took to the airwaves to say donations weren’t needed. Hundreds of riot police were deployed in front of the station shortly after the attack to help secure the perimeters, prompting skirmishes with demonstrators.

“Turkey doesn’t deserve this, everyone in this country should condemn terrorism,” said Kemal Kilicdaroglu, leader of the main opposition Republican People’s Party, or CHP.

Turkish television channels broadcast scenes of panic as ambulances rushed to the area to take the wounded to nearby hospitals. Demonstrators formed a human chain around the attacked area and laid out scores of lifeless bodies in front of the station, covering them with flags of unions, political parties and civilian organizations participating in the “Labor, Peace and Democracy” march.

Further from the WSJ, the blast comes amid a backdrop of violence that has gripped Turkey since the breakdown in July of a two-year cease-fire between Kurdish insurgents and the state. Hundreds of security officials and civilians have been killed amid resurgent clashes between the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, and state forces, while the government has claimed to have killed more than 1,000 Kurdish militants.

While the final death toll is still being tabulated with three difference version of the total saying anywhere between 30 and 69 people have died...

... Saturday’s blasts are shaping up as the deadliest to hit Ankara in recent years. The capital was hit by PKK-linked suicide and car bombings in 2007 and 2011 that killed a total 13 people. Leftist militants struck the entrance of the U.S. Embassy in 2013, killing two including the suicide bomber.

The explosion comes at an opportunistic time: on Sunday Kurdish militants were expected to call a cease-fire to bolster security in Turkey’s southeast in the lead up to the Nov. 1 elections, according to interviews with senior PKK commanders in the Kurdish media. The PKK, which is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the European Union, has been fighting for Kurdish autonomy since 1984 in a conflict in which more than 40,000 people have been killed. Some may therefore view today's explosion as a provocation serving to underming any peaceful election, instead handing over the government full control over how to stage, and conduct, what will be merely the latest sham "vote" in Turkey.

Turkey’s pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party, or HDP, was also among the groups participating in the demonstration. Since the flare-up of violence after the June national elections, when the HDP doubled its support to 13% to enter parliament for the first time, party leader Selahattin Demirtas has called on both the PKK and the state to resume peace talks.

“The purpose of this march was to call for peace and call for the end of the current conflict,” an HDP spokesman said Saturday.

Worse, according to local reports, a political candidate for Istanbul of the HDP party was killed in the attack, giving the suicide bombing the appearance of a targeted assassination:

 

Turkey's president Recep Tayyip Erdogan issued a statement condemning the attacks, but not before trying to score even more political propaganda points.

“I strongly condemn this horrendous attack, which targets our unity and brotherhood. The aim of this attack is to make enemies of different groups in the society,” he said. He added that the “greatest supporters of terrorism are those who apply double standards in face of terrorism,” taking a swipe at the HDP without naming the pro-Kurdish party, which the president has repeatedly accused of being in cahoots with the PKK.

While as noted above the reason for at least one of the bomb attacks according to eyewitnesses was a suicide bomber, there has been no official version yet.

For now, however, the government's reaction has been one many are accustomed to: in the aftermath of the explosion, the government promptly did what it always does in crisis situations - a crack down on mass communication and free speech, in this case manifesting by a promptly blocking Twitter.

One of the problems with training and paying terrorists and mercenaries is that frequently they don't know how to live or make livings doing anything else once they are active.

You can take the men out of the battlefield but you can't take the battlefield out of the men.

ALL the terroists and mercenaries eventually go home -or somewhere- to continue their career paths: and become military, police or security thugs of one variant or another.

Sometimes is runs in the reverse on both institutional and personal trajectories: trained and toughened military, police, and security cgroups and operatives pursue evolving professional and personal ideological agenda, interests in weapons and surveilance technologies, experiement and evolve surveilance and interrogation techniques, etc.

The closed culture comes to define and portect itself, it's values, it's proceedures, etc...  

Right and wrong are grey areas or subservient to employment and compartmentalization of pursposes.

Cameraderie and ethics center around payments and organization.   Pack behavior manifests.  Loyalty to crew, etc..

The military and the police evolve into and merge with and become the actors at ready to perform black operations, false flags, coup and counter-coup, mercenary and terrorist organization, etc.. 

The police state evolves internally and externally.

Identifying the acotrs exerting force, the intention for exertion of force, is the easy part.

The question of legitimacy of force is the hard part.

 

What legitimaizes the use of force either overtly or covertly?

And the narrative for Russian contributions is already there as well. According to the New York Times, Russia's bombing of ISIS is helping them establish more territory.

Don't worry if it makes zero sense, America has to unload its involvement with ISIS now. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to pin something like this on Russia's targeting of ISIS. 'We were right. We can't attack them because it makes them stronger.' This is precisely the narrative, suggesting that Russia's efforts have failed (even throwing in the 'no ground troops' meme, which is a problem for the American side), but it's really an effort to unload revelations about American terrorism and try to bury all the money and failed tactics of using Al-Qaeda/ISIS to try to push further towards Russia.

So many false flag opportunities, so little time to profit from them all.

The "False Flaggers" will call this bombing authentic because it clearly was.  The WTC incident was a flag and it killed plenty of people, it's when the wrong group is blamed that it's a false flag.  Mass shootings that have no authentic victims would be more appropriately referred to as staged shootings.  

At this rate Turkey will be the next Saudi Arabia or Israel. All of our ME allies are the biggest terrorists and monsters on the planet. Probably a coincidence though...

Nevertheless, it was CIA/MI6/Mossad unholy trinity that is responsible for this terrorist attack in Turkey, same as in the Boston marathon bombing show... and the reason is that Turkey is not vigorous enough in demonstrating their loyalty to US in Syria. Terror is the main tool of the US foreign policy when dealing with its colonies.

 

ISIS only has 50,000 militants, and yet the Western propaganda machine presents it as something unconquerable and indestructible -- the main point of the US-led "war on ISIS" being implanting the idea that ISIS has at least one million headcount. Again, with 100% support from Hollywood, with fake and staged videos of executions and other cruelties performed by "ISIS". Incredible, some leaked videos show actors taking off balaclava masks while taking a break after filming. Hollywood/Orwellian Newspeak/Ministry of Truth's inforwar has been another tool of the US state machine -- both for the domestic consumption and for export.

 

Terror and propaganda machines, along with FED as a tool for the colonial taxation are the main pillars of the Evil Empire, and not the US Army, which is as phony as LGBT-friendly, and will never face a real enemy (for most normal people a "combat faggot" is an oxymoron).

 

This bombing is not the last one, expect more -- somewhere in Iraq, Iran or even in EU. That's what CIA/MI6/Mossad are there for.

Freddie's picture

Here is a cut and paste from a a post on a McCain youtube video about the McCain's family involvement in th e USS Liberty and the USS Forrestal.  The McCain's have done more damage to the US Navy then the Russians ever had.  This post has the most detail about what happened on the USS Forrestal.  Save it and post everywhere.  I tried 3 times to edit it and make paragraphs but Zh keeps it as a blob paragraph.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0mK3e5I4ak

Fred Dietz   6 days ago
McCain’s father, also named John McCain, was a naval admiral who covered up the deadly Israeli attack on the USS Liberty in 1967. Admiral John McCain, Jr., was Commander-in-Chief of US Naval Forces Europe at that time (June 8, 1967). The attack was by all accounts premeditated. His son seems to have been a reckless aeronautical showoff who was more responsible than anyone else for starting the deadly July 29th fire (the following month) onboard the aircraft carrier the USS Forrestal stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin. McCain insisted on “customizing” his A4 Skyhawk with a pair of thousand pound M-65 bombs from WWII without having it provisioned for these heavy (and old) munitions through the proper channels. Instead, the skipper of the aircraft carrier,

Captain John K. Beling, seems to have let McCain get away with it simply for being an admiral’s son. On the morning of July 29th, McCain took it upon himself to “wet start” his A4. A “wet start” causes a big flame to shoot out of the tail of the aircraft. Apparently, this was part of a gag to shake-up the pilot directly behind him on the carrier. However, the flame then “cooked off” one of the Zuni rockets carried by the plane behind him, launching the rocket, which then knocked-off one of the two M-65 bombs from McCain’s wing hardpoint.

McCain knew the M-65 had a 60-second fuse; the pilot behind him did not—and so whereas McCain knew to bail to safety, the pilot in the rear was killed in the consequential ball of fire (as were 26 other servicemen, with over 100 wounded). McCain was immediately transferred off the Forrestal (the only member of its crew to be immediately transferred), and three months later he was captured flying over North Vietnam.

How much preferential treatment he received from the North Vietnamese merely for being an admiral’s son—and how much he had to earn by divulging state secrets—these are matters only the Viet Cong and McCain, himself, know about (suffice it to say, he received considerably better treatment than he would have as an unknown enlisted soldier).

Such is the ugly truth about the man. He and George W. Bush were both jet jockeys from “American royalty” who were groomed for public office from their earliest age forward, and once the Viet Cong released McCain alive and reasonably healthy, his newfound POW status was simply factored-in to this pre-planned mystique.

But notice there have never been any comments from McCain about the entire Vietnam War being predicated on a falsehood (in 1968, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara publicly admitted the Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened—that it was either a mistake or an outright lie—and almost certainly the latter). Judging from McCain’s words, you would think the entire Vietnam War (58,220 known American dead) was a “good idea” regardless of how it came about.

Or perhaps someone merely got ticked off at the Turkish version of the Kumbayah conga line those people were doing in the video.

Or was it another adherent of radical Islam releasing his/her sexual tension though the joys of premature detonation?

Having been to Ankara a few times, I can tell you the place is not as safe as you would be lead to beleive. The US Embassy there was attacked and the Iranian embassy as well. There are some nutters in Ankara for sure.

Now, the thing to see is - who gets the blame or takes the credit. Knowing Recap, he will blame it on the PKK when clearly it will turn out to be Nationalistic Turks who do want to reestablish the Ottoman empire. But that's my guess.

It is not ISIS because they know better than to shit where they eat. Where would all of the wounded ISIS soldiers go if not Turkey!

Lastly, anyone with holiday plans in Istanbul - I would be cancelling them and going instead to Italy or France or even Russia (where  everything is 50% due to the exchange rate). If you want to see the real Turkey, just rent "Midnight Express" and watch some ISIS news and I think you are set.
