Today I was in Istiklal Caddesi for a private reason. First I was astonished to see the street pleasantly empty, after a while I understood that a demonstration is on the way and that therefore the few people on the street are trying to come further on the sides of the street
They (the men of the demo group) were crying: "Şehitler Ölmez,Vatan bölünmez. Kahrolsun AKP Emperyalizmi.' It means 'The victims of the terror won t die and the country won t be seperated. Damned with the AKP Emperialism!' There were also transparents with 'The killer of the turkish soldier is U.S.A.'
I mean, we know this already but it would be unjust to U.S.A. not to mention how disgusting the EU has behaved in this issue. Many E.U. countries were also supporters of kurdish terrorists. Not less than USA.
At the same time turkish capitalists were eager to work with European or U.S. capital, thus they didn t care for dying of poor peasant boys from Anatolia. 'Business as usual' is their only concern.
To make it worse, I have realized today, even the military don t care for the victims. They cry out loud but this is the theatre part of the work. They don t send professionals to Hakkari but only young (indeed too young and without any experience) and unexperienced people. (Like U.S. sending stupid young guys to Iraq...?) After all oil brings more cash than human blood... The second one is easier to find than oil, I think, for market leader...

The protesters were from (as far as I can see) from Workers Party and from some unions. Young college girls on a terrace were beckoning them in a supporting manner. But other people on the street were afraid somehow... Or this was my feeling... I do think like them but still I was afraid on the street. You can t know there what could happen on the street.
