YOU ARE THE MURDERER
While Turkey was grieving for 11 troops who were killed in an ambush in the southeastern province of Hakkari, it was the Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) which glorified terrorism on every occasion. BDP, which tried anything to sabotage Turkey's brotherhood project and which declared a suicide bomber as 'martyr', became the accomplice of the massacres. BDP condemned the heinous attack with a meager statement. Between the lines of the statement, BDP used threatening expressions, "terrible days are awaiting Turkey."
AIR OPERATION ON HEART OF TERROR
The government has given an instant response to the PKK terrorist organization which claimed lives of eleven young Turkish troops in an ambush in the southeastern province of Hakkari. F-16 war planes took off from the southeastern province of Diyarbakir and shelled terror camps in northern Iraq.
