Could always be Daesh, no?
It's pretty damn sick and brutal, regardless of who did it.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Turkish election next month because of hung parliament. Perhaps there is a connection? The AKP would really love it if the HDP did not make the 10% threshold. I'm sure the president is willing to turn a blind eye to the attacks.

I'm open for the results of investigations of course, but the feeling I got is the same when that shit Aznar claimed it was ETA attacking the trains, back in 2004. The pieces don't quite fit and the circumstances are the same. An upcoming ellection is on the horizon.
Quote:More than 90 people have been killed and up to 150 wounded in the deadliest terror attack in Turkey’s history after two explosions targeted a peace rally in the centre of the capital.
Twin explosions outside Ankara’s main train station on Saturday morning targeted hundreds of people who had gathered to protest against violence between authorities and the Kurdish militant group, the PKK.

It would not be surprising or all that unprecedented given turkeys recent history.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Man fuck the priorities of our sociopolitical climate. This happened four days ago and this is the first I'm hearing about it. What a terrible and senseless tragedy.
