Quoting Trudy: The persons who did this will get what they want, I'm afraid: a Turkey in isolation without tourists (meaning money!). I already heard several people in the Netherlands who have changed their minds, they will not spend their summer holiday in Turkey but they'll go to Greece and Portugal instead. |
Yes, I'm afraid that many people will feel this way. Acting on anger (which is a very valid feeling at the moment though) won't help Turkey. Unfortunately, I don't see any reasonable solutions coming out. You have to look at the roots of the problems instead of behaving the same way that you hate in those people - which is by violence.

@ Mina: it won't stop me too (else I think I should stay in my bed and die there) but I think many people who are depending on the tourism branche don't like the idea their customers won't come.

Quoting mltm: What I think is with another government we have to finish these PKK terrorists, by very effective operations. Or, we will always live with a fear of a possible attack. |
It had been finished before 2003 with the old terror law, but when this government came, they changed the terror law by the pressure of EU and they terminated and dismissed the special forces who were expert on struggle with terrorism again by the pressure of EU(congruity laws of EU), and these new laws tied up hands of Gendarme and Army, now then we come to this situation. Terrorism grew up day by day.

Quoting qdemir: Could you speak more specifically? What problems and roots? |
I don't understand your question qdemir. What problem? - the problem we're talking about - bombs in the city! What are the roots? - you should know better then me. If it's Pkk that set this up, then one of the roots is discrimination against Kurds in Turkey. I'm not an expert on the turkish problems, but I know for sure that if your only reaction is going to be aggression back then you're setting yourself up for more violence... obviously! On top of many other consequences, like perception of Turkey abroad.

This is really going off track, but Keith I have to agree with you! I saw first hand in Cheroke how poor they really are and how they are "dumped" in a high flood risk area. I will stop now as the above post makes my blood boil.

The PKK and American Indians have nothing in common.
The indians land was stolen continusously and they were packed onto reservations that were not hospitaale to live on.
To this day, not only are they poor, they have the highest unemployment rate, highest alcoholism rate and highest suicide rate of any group in America.
