Commenting on this week's violent incidents in Diyarbakir, Parliament Speaker Bulent Arinc yesterday praised the security forces for suppressing demonstrations the terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) worked to turn into mass riots.

Kurdish protesters rampaged on Tuesday and Wednesday after a funeral for PKK members killed by troops in the east over the weekend, hurling firebombs at armored police vehicles, smashing the windows of a police station and stabbing two police officers."
