"Turkey will not be subverted
No one is claiming responsibility for the bombs in Istanbul, but the finger of suspicion points at a shady ultra-nationalist group
All of Turkey was appalled by a villainous terror attack in Istanbul on Sunday night that came amid discussion over the findings of dark relations revealed by the indictment on the Ergenekon terror organisation, and on the eve of the beginning of deliberation by the constitutional court on an indictment seeking to close the ruling Justice and Development Party (AK party). Terror showed its bloody face this time on an ordinary Istanbul street, without discriminating between the old and the young, babies and children, men and women. Unfortunately, Turkey lost 17 of its citizens in this heinous terror attack, and 150 more were wounded. Over 15 of them are still in critical condition."
