Media: in Turkish Diyarbakir there is a battle using artillery

79
In the center of the Turkish Diyarbakir, where the confrontation between the government security forces and the Kurds continues, an intense battle broke out, artillery shooting and explosions are heard, reports RIA News.



"In the center of Diyarbakir, which is considered the" capital "of Turkish Kurds, is historical Sur district, in which several architectural monuments are located - in particular, it is surrounded by a multi-kilometer fortress wall, in which some fragments date back to the 1500th century BC. Inside the fortress are ancient churches and mosques about XNUMX years old, ”the agency recalls.

But lately, the Sur region has become a war zone between the Turkish security forces and the PKK fighters - the Kurdistan Workers Party.

The area left most of the inhabitants. According to the mayor of the city of Diyarbakir Firat Anli, "out of 70 thousands of residents of Sura, about 50 thousands of people left their homes."

Yesterday, around 2 of thousands of women activists gathered in the city from other cities of the country and staged a protest march. They marched through the center of Diyarbakir, chanting "Long live the resistance of Sura," and "Peace and negotiations."

However, their voices were not heard, literally in 2-s kilometers from the peaceful march, an intense battle began.

Earlier it was reported that during the anti-terrorist operation conducted by the Turkish authorities against PKK activists, more than 750 Kurds were killed.

                  Yes, confusion and vacillation are not good for them - everyone is dressing up, which of them are "big Kurds". Instead of getting together and promoting the idea of ​​the state. In general, they (the Kurds) historically have the right to their own state. Of the ancient, eternally persecuted peoples, perhaps only they do not. The Jews have, the Armenians have, the Gypsies have two (two, Karl!) ... the Kurds do not. It is unfair somehow. request

                No, it’s just that in Russia and especially on this site many are sure that all Kurds are united and hate Turks on a united front. No, this is not so. There are many supporters of a united Turkey among Turkish Kurds. They themselves hate the PKK and their ideology. The main centers of Kurds, who hate Turkey and Turks is Diyarbakir and a couple of cities near them.

While Turkey - Armenians are near the Armenian borders, they can still count on the fact that sometime later they may be able to secure a part of the Turkish lands, which the Armenians consider theirs. But as soon as, instead of Turkey, an independent Great Kurdistan appears near the border with Armenia, and even supported by Russia (and the United States, by the way), the Armenians will have to say goodbye to their plans for a "Great Armenia" forever.

          Not put it that way. The US is now promising the Syrian Kurds a "Great Kurdistan", thereby driving a wedge between the Syrian Kurds and the Syrian government. But as soon as the case of the creation of the Great Kurdistan threatens to move into the practical plane of the implementation of this project, the United States, under pressure from the Armenian lobby in the Senate and Congress, will dramatically change its position.

      What kind of war?
      As soon as it comes to a conflict with Turkey or the incitement by the Anglo-Saxons of a conflict in the Baltic states (so far - at the level of amateur performances), the friendly choir of kakunihachukh and baksolyubov makes an unambiguous and unshakable verdict:
      "But SHA will fit in NATO and kirdyk RASHKE" ...
      And it seems that smart people start arguing with them about "fit in"Or"won't fit"and no one asks the question - how and with what NATO is going to fit in?
      Let's start with a small and modest one:
      No one denies that NATO's main argument is the US military. All other types of army play the role of a retinue under "Big Brother", whose task is exclusively to crackle for panic. An attempt, for example, to powerfully fly the German Air Force to the Syrian region clearly demonstrated that there is nothing to take off at all. And this is Germany, by the way. The fighting efficiency of the rest of NATO members all the more - causes laughter in peacetime, and panic in wartime. I don’t know about you, but in the Baltics, where NATO exercises are held almost every week, you can see it with the naked eye.
      So - the main force of NATO - the American military ... And now the question:
      -Tell me at least one conflict in which the United States would get involved without having at least 10-fold superiority over the enemy? No, no, not in the drawn virtual GDP, but in real tanks on the battlefield. I personally don’t remember that. In all other options in the history of military conflicts, the United States clearly and constantly prefers to do anything, but not to fight.
      And why do they suddenly today have to rub it on the forehead of the Russian military - thousands of kilometers from their territory? For the Happiness of Turkey? For the sake of ambition ukrov and the Baltic states? Do you believe that? I - not once. Well, they don’t milk and carry turkey eggs, as you don’t feed them with popcorn.
      And you know, this is primarily known to both the Turks and the Baltic states. Of course, they don’t speak out loud, but they clearly realize that if something happens, they will have to deal exclusively with the angry teddy bear one on one, and all other NATO members will instantly turn into just members confidently pointing at half past five, because each of them at least once with his erection he tried to approach Russia, and received as many times ...
      And earlier - at all times - the West could put in the ranks accustomed to discipline, labor and hardship, millions of workers and peasants. Arm them with some kind of ideology. Now, whom do you command to mobilize? An office hamster protesting violence against his women by pulling on miniskirts and hairpins? Are you seriously? Do you really imagine this army unfolding in a chain and going to machine guns?
      As well as their leaders, for whom Russophobia is just a business. And what the hell is business under the gun of "Caliber" and "Iskander"? But God forbid - the standard of living as a result of the conflict will plummet. Then their own hamsters will arrange genocide and the Holocaust in one bottle for their own leaders. Because, unlike the Russians, no one will ever sacrifice their comfort for the sake of some kind of victory in the West. It is easier to give up and go drink beer with the winners than to pull out of yourself the alien-incomprehensible "everything for the front - everything for victory" ...
      That is, if you remove the puffing of cheeks, formidable rhetoric and bulging eyes, then in reality there is no one to fight in this terrible NATO bloc, nothing, and most importantly, there is no need. Therefore, as well as 25 years ago, and now NATO's Main and Only Striking Fist, which is ordered to crush the enemy and arrange the same "rashkirdyk", is the same 5th column that twice in the twentieth century gave "our Western partners" the keys to the capital of Russia , and at the same time - from Russian bins and headquarters.
      Hey! Kakunihachuhi and baksolyuby, confidently shredding in social networks but not a damn thing willing to rush to the riot police with cauldrons! Is it nice to feel like NATO’s main strike force? Be proud! .. While there is something ...

      There will be no screeching. It should not be forgotten that the second most influential political lobby in the United States is the Armenian one. While Turkey - Armenians are near the Armenian borders, they can still count on the fact that sometime later they may be able to secure a part of the Turkish lands, which the Armenians consider theirs. But as soon as an independent Great Kurdistan, supported by Russia, appears on the border with Armenia instead of Turkey, the Armenians will have to say goodbye to the plans of a "Great Armenia" forever. Therefore, the Armenians will never allow any serious support from the United States, and therefore the UN, to the Turkish Kurds. This means that the Turks can kill the Kurds as they want.
      Now the United States still supports the Kurds. But no longer Turkish, but Iraqi and Syrian. But as soon as it comes to creating a united Great Kurdistan ... in general, there is still a lot of interesting things ahead. Stock up on popcorn and sit back at the TVs.

        Under international law, the issue of independence can be considered if there is a section of a common border with another state. In the case of Tatarstan or Bashkortostan, a self-isolation zone or enclave is obtained. I do not think that driving themselves into a blockade is a national idea for them.

          Well, the version you cited began to emerge from the Turkish journalists close to the top five to seven days after the event - at first they said that some general was to blame, then even Turkish Prime Minister Davutoglu. Only, it seems, this is only to shield Erdogan. After all, if Erdogan had called Putin in the first hours, the issue would have almost certainly been settled. And there they would agree on how to present it in such a way that there would be no "loss" for Erdogan, and Putin would not be accused of connivance with criminals ..
          And what the "Americans" covered - also for sure - in the air at that time was the American AWACS over Turkey, and besides, there was also a Saudi over Saudi Arabia nearby. Surely one of them gave out target designation too.

With the filing of the United States with his own hands and created a situation. By the way, I am not writing that the Kurdish problem arose under him. She is already many decades old.

            - sit it you in a trolley bus .. the trolley bus goes, as it should .. in the lane, and over the wire yet (I remember the trolley bus for good reason)
            - here it cuts the trolley bus .. well, cool Pts (Merce, Lehus, Ferrari, Porsche - yes exactly)
            - the trolleybus slows down, as it can .. but it still fits .. it’s not clear what, but it owes this - Merc-Luxus-Porsche .. let them not be mentioned ..

            I mean, the Turkish leader, whatever his last name is, is the position of the trolley bus driver he loves. And it seems not to blame .. and not to object ..

      So these are not internal problems, but the cleaning of the rear before the offensive. The Turks practically eliminated all serious units in the 4 month. There were loners and cells that the special services are engaged in, and not the army. Diyarbakyl is the last major Kurdish stronghold in Turkey. Now they have increased the intensity of working MLRS, receiver and introducing a few companies M-60. Seen in a hurry.

      but - understand, brethren: any politician is always a hostage to the situation. And there are very few politicians who can turn the tide.

      The logic of circumstances is always stronger than the logic of intentions, in an effort to realize their interests. This is the main formula of possibilities by which it is possible, with a certain degree of probability, to calculate how events will develop further. There are many examples; it was clear to smart people as early as 2013 with the beginning of the Maidan that the revolution in Ukraine would force Putin to take Crimea, this is a matter of Russia's strategic security, even despite the consequences. And the Donbass was visible, since depriving Ukraine of the energy core, making it not a viable problem for puppeteers, is a preemptive counterattack, the consequences of which many still have to reverse and rethink. Obeying just such a logic, granite boulders of geopolitics of superpowers are moving, without even noticing how the fate of people and peoples is being grinded. If we substitute the values ​​and goals from the Russian political Olympus in this formula, we will understand the logic of the actions of the inhabitants of the Kremlin, the Central Bank, the allegarchs and all other powerful people and change anyone and anything there, as patriots liberal and communist roots categorically demand, in the naive hope of quick changes are meaningless and proceeding from this law on the contrary, will lead directly to the opposite, the worst.

But for Russia simultaneously oil and gas, Ukrainian and Syrian issues, there are circumstances that with 100% probability will push it to extremely tough answers, both in Ukraine and in Syria, and there are no prerequisites for hope, neither NATO nor the United States will save, and it seems that they understand this perfectly well, although stupid people have always been an exception to the rule.

      Here, after all, what’s the matter ... Often religious buildings are being rebuilt from those that are available, so it is likely that there was another religious building in that place. And with the advent of Islam, they simply rebuilt under the mosque.

        Alas. Under Erdogan (Turkish Prime Minister since 2003), the economic situation in Turkey has greatly improved. Actually, that's why the Turks vote for him. This means that the Turkish Government under Erdogan could afford to spend much more on the army than the predecessors of Erdogan could afford 15-20 years ago. First they bought an army, and then cleaned it. Nobody blundered.
