I fon't think it's purely Kurds that made hdp big this time. Of vourse its a fact that the south east has voted more for hdp than akp this time, but there is also the claim, which is not far fetched at all, that some chp, mhp and former akp voters voted for hdp, just to either push them through...

unfortunately bro, if you look at the stats of some of the traditional MHP provinces in the east like Kars, Ardahan, Igdir and Agri (if im not mistaken), you will see that MHP's vote is surprisingly little compared to the past elections. Seems like some of those supporters have given their vote...

Of course it will piss off the opposition. But hey, the number of votes the opposition gets is what they apparently deserve by the people. Chp and mhp are the biggest opposition parties, yet they have been losing all elections since the last 12 years. Instead of putting the blame in akp's shoes...

i actually think that the west encourages or welcomes Iranian meddling in Syria, just like the US knowingly handed over Iraq to the Shia/Iranian influence sphere when they disbanded everything related to the Baathists. I wouldn't be surprised if all of this isis mess was created or silently...

PKK and Iranian govt to support each other PKK and Iranian govt sign an agreement that PKK has suspended military operations inside Iran; in return, Iranian govt will support PKK especially in Iraq. World Bulletin / News Desk Local news agencies are reporting that the latest tensions between...

Too much BS to respond to. There is a clear line between an honest objective assessment and a blatant hostile approach aimed at creating fear and panic. The title alone clearly indicates that this article belongs to the latter category. Despite the flaws of the govt, seems like some foreigners...

at the moment all opposition parties are only talking about akp. it might be me, but have you ever heard mhp talking trash about chp like it did before? or vice versa? surprisingly the other Turkish parties are not talking about hdp either. they are all after akp. Imo, at the moment it might...

No, that's not normal either, i agree. If you ask for my opinion... Looking at the current political parties, they are all bad in their own ways. I openly say i support akp, thats not due their Islamic ideology though, but rather due to my conviction that the akp truly has done more for Turkey...

Then where do you get the information from that everything that is thrown at akp is the truth? am not saying akp doesn't make mistakes and that they are always the victim, by the way, i just don't like it when people throw one sided mud at another without looking in the mirror. Lies and...

Some say Turkey is a dictatorship, yet there are countless of media outlets that are harshly criticizing and using language which i have not seen before in foreign media. Let alone what politicians and people write on twitter. Turkey is not perfect, but some accusations against the govt are not...

the order to stop the truck was given by Gulenists and the local military head is probably a Gulenist too. It makes zero sense that when a govt, as a whole body, decides to supply Turkmen in Syria, but the (local) military is not informed of such things or is misled by someone. The fact that...

This disunity is also something i have noticed from the Turkish Alevi organizations in Turkey. Don't remember the exact names, but i know there is an Alevi organization that is pro-govt and then there is another that is against the govt. they all better come to terms instead of splintering into...

Why this silence? Didn't Iranian users see this topic or did they choose to remain silent as the curtain fell and the apparent true face of Iran's so called victory over the PJAK some years ago became apparent?

TROLOLOL, and then many Iranian users become angry when foreigners point out and laugh at the obvious shabby copies. It's not our fault that we can't do anything but laugh and shake our heads out of pity. Anyway, congrats Iran, at least there is progress... Probably the ayatollah's photoshop...

Step by step that will hopefully happen. There is already more investment pouring in the SE, this confidence and safety must be guaranteed until the majority of the good intentioned Kurds and the ones that want to be free but are forced to play along by the pkk can finally get rid of that...

Bir tek kafasi degil, kanisi da karisik gibi geliyor. Sahsen bana da ters konusmadi lakin Turklerin hakkinda yazdiklarini hepimize hakaret olarak algiladim. Neyse, bundan sonra zamanimi boyle karaktersiz serefsizlere harcamak istemiyor.

Imo, the opposition is still clueless. Yeah, chp put that 'central Turkey' idea forward (which imo is not original at all, anyway thats another topic). If you watch closely, chp, mhp, hdp and many smaller parties are mainly just parroting each other and increase numbers, probably a concerted...

nice. it really seems more focus is being put on education, R&D and technology development. A strong and confident ambitious national focus from the top helps too. All of this will hopefully also help to reverse the brain drain. I can't wait to see the results in some years/decades.

Turkey's financial situation and GDP might have been able to improve and its global rank might have stayed similar after a decade, but with other countries developing (faster) too, it seems Turkey is barely holding on to its current rank. Turkey producing high tech like the advanced countries do...
