The Conflict in Syria as it Relates to Turkey | Updates & Discussions

Not every one of them.

1) Tunceli/Dersim Alevis are Kurd/Zaza. They tend to support either PKK or DHKPC.

2) Nusayris are Arab Alawites. Though they keep low, they hate Turkish State, and hold Assad over Turkey.
One of my friends is an Alevi he told me that some are Communists but a lot are patriots i have visited a Dernek once and there was even a portrait of Atatürk so i would doubt them to be PKK supporters.
 
What do you rhink of this? CHP mixed with devrim-sol?

I distinguish / separate Alevis based on ethnic identity more often rather than communism.

Dersimli Kemal & co. Kurdish Alevis.
 
This comes from an Alevi. Nice to see some support here. Some of yours are on the wrong side however. You may enlighten them ASAP.

I have some Alevi friends... they are much better than avarage poeple when it comes to patriotism... though some of them support CHP, exactly the same way people support AKP.
 
We should not become like other countries,we dont have a sectarian problem,we are all the same.

We always had a sectarian problem and we still do. You might not be aware of it.

Anyway this is not about Alevism or Sunnism but the Syria conflict and Turkey.

I just cant resist but what about all those Sunni ISIS symphatizers?
What about all those Sunnis voting in favor of the AKP which is responsible for the PKK process.
What about racist Sunni MHPli?

Add the numbers up.

MHP is the only Turkish party in the parliament and only Turkish party which can pass the "baraj".

I think this thread is getting too much heated, and every one needs to stay away from keyboard for some time.
@Alienoz_TR i agree with many stuff that you say, but you have a very wrong mindset about alevis and Shiites. Don't forget that between 1/3 to1/2 of oghuz Turks are alevi/Shiite and as I have noticed they are more loyal to Ataturk's principle and turkiye than average, which totally makes sense, since without Ataturk's principles, secularism, ... They are the ones who would lose the most. Sometime I feel you assume that Shiite=Iran, alevi = Assad, which is a very wrong approach.
About Kurds, koubani was very symbolic for them and losing it is literally a nightmare for their Kurdish nationalism sentiments. Anyway, they would cool down after a few days, so we don't need to make a big deal out of nothing.
 
the positive side is that pkk proved to be incompetent which would reduce support for them in future and weakens their position in peace process.
