So its only 'terror' when it happens abroad then?

[tzipi]

So suddenly the BBC got familiar with the word terror and I thought they never learned it at school

[AbnormalityTV]

That shooter is literally The Twitch Streamer Ice Poseidon

[nuqwestr]

Kurd resistance movement is not terrorism. they have a right to defend themselves.

[wickhamme]

Kurds are brave and warriors they fought and defeated ISIS who turkey has been supporting

[shannelgrace]

Same thing i was saying. Turkey is doing the very thing they condemn israel for doing. U see when the shoe is on other feet. It is a difference ball game

[AllanHinde-mbpr]

You have been very quiet on the bombing from the Turkish in Syria today

[JohnGtti-gu]

I’m confused. Why did Turkey attack innocent freedom fighters?

[mehmetbilgin]

Comments that put Israel and Turkey on the same level are very stupid. Turkey is not an artificial state established with the support of England, it is a state that has drawn its borders with human blood. It has every right to retaliate, the West has brought nothing but blood and tears to these lands. England, America and France divided the countries they colonized into pieces, the people of this geography will unite again, you will not be able to prevent this.

Respect Kurdish self determination and rights ❤

[sicsempertyrannis]

'Terror'?
Of course, your proxies are always freedom fighters not cold blooded killer terrorists.
Yaşasın Türkiye Cumhuriyeti!!!!
Yaşasın Filistin!!!!
🇹🇷❤🇵🇸

[kingrichards]

But why turkey attacked in retaliation when it preaching Israel to not 🤔

[Johnnnnpennn]

Türkiye hit the Syria-based PKK/PYD terrorist organization after the bomb attack it suffered. This is giving a response and is normal behavior...

[tonifitz]

Why?why?why? When will all this bloodshed end???? God bless all the innocent victims.

[halukdemir]

With such allies like US, NATO, etc., who need enemies?

[Wulfzz]

How is it a terror attack when it's directed at military infrastructure rather than civilian population?

[bornonjuly]

BBC and Al Jazeera must also look by sending their correspondents in Kurdish areas to see the impact of the indiscriminate 47 bombing strikes done by Turkey.

[gazzyga]

Definitely western intelligence services involved...

[JYUSUF_F]

Comments are brainwashed i have 6 kurd friend they are accepting kurds and pkk is different things lmao

[gazzyga]

The "Analyst" forgot to mention that Isis was started, armed and funded by the U.S and its allies, another thing he didnt mention is that U.S bases (which are there illegally) are based closely to areas held and controlled by Isis and it's affiliates.
