Hundreds of Turkish academics are waiting to find out whether they will be prosecuted or sacked for spreading “terrorist propaganda”, after they signed a petition calling for violence to end in Turkey’s southeast, where government forces have been fighting Kurdish separatists.

It wont be too long before they too morph into the same hydra destroying more civilian lives. It is as if there were a grand plan underlying all this internecine warfare....

The protracted Syrian conflict is destined to be a source of renewed friction between Turkey and Russia after a recent report suggests that Russia has deployed nearly 100 troops and military advisers in the northern Syrian town of Qamishli, located near the Turkish border -- a development that is bound to cause tension ahead of the Syria peace talks in Geneva.

The move to deploy military personnel in Qamishli, which is currently under the control of the Syrian regime and the Democratic Union Party (PYD), is likely to cause tension with Turkey, which has grown wary of outside powers' increasing cooperation with the PYD and its armed wing of Syrian Kurdish militia the People's Protection Units (YPG).

A 19-year-old man has been arrested in the southern province of Antalya for allegedly insulting President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in a post on social media.

A large number of people including high school students, activists and even a former Miss Turkey have been prosecuted in recent years for allegedly insulting Erdoğan. According to a human rights report released by Republican People's Party (CHP) deputy Sezgin Tanrıkulu on Dec. 5, 2015, Erdoğan has sued more than 1,500 people on charges of libel, with 400 further investigations awaiting approval from the Justice Ministry.

I am talking about the miscalculation he made in which that he could have Crimea for little cost by using force. He paid a very huge cost. He turned Ukraine into a hostile neighbor and any brotherly feeling between them is now gone, only to be replaced by long lasting animosity and hostility by Ukrainians towards Russians. Now he has to watch his southern flank right on its border instead of using Ukraine as an useful strategic buffer. Russia's hold on Crimea is still gingerly tenable because there is no direct landlink between Russia and Crimea and all infrastructure support still runs through Ukraine and has to rely on expensive methods of resupply and support by sea. To build a direct landlink means that the costs of doing so would equal the cost of building up Novorussiyk's naval base which would be far better than what was at Sevastopol. He could have gotten Crimea for little gain had he been more patience and more cunning. Blunt force was not necessary on Russia's part. By not taking over Crimea and allowing the anti western Ukraine movement to fully develop and nurturing it to a full blown insurgency in Kharkiv and Dnepropetrovsk, Putin could have actually separated Ukraine in half without using any Russian forces and once that movement does that, he could have gotten Crimea for a dime and Putin and Russia would be able to maintain plausible deniability.

Shooting of Kurds waving white flag caught on camera (GRAPHIC VIDEO)

An incident in which several civilians with a white flag came under fire has been caught on camera. The victims are reported to be Kurds in the town of Cizre, where they were allegedly shot at by Turkish troops.
The series of short video clips published on social media shows a procession of people going along a street, pushing a cart with what appears to be two covered bodies. The walls of the buildings are dotted with holes, possibly from bullets. A tank is shown in the distance.

Then, gunfire can be heard as the people hunker down and run for cover.

Other footage shows several people lying motionless on the ground with blood spilling from them, as gasps and screams of horror come from the background.

The stated location is the Kurdish city of Cizre, which appears consistent with the Turkish-language graffiti shown in the video and the ice cream shop of the ‘Algida’ brand - which is only sold in Italy, Eastern Europe and Turkey.

RT could not immediately verify the circumstances of the shooting. One version claims that the Kurdish civilians were shot at by Turkish troops involved in a crackdown that Ankara is currently conducting in the south and south-east of the country.

Another version suggests that Kurdish militants were among the ranks of the civilians and opened fire at the Turks, provoking a response. The footage doesn't appear to show any armed people in the crowd.

The Turkish government in August launched a military operation in Kurd-majority areas, imposing curfews and clashing with fighters of the militant Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which is considered a terrorist organization in Turkey. At least 150 civilians and hundreds of fighters on both sides are thought to have died in the conflict.

The crackdown was criticized by international human rights organizations as disproportionate and a form of collective punishment against the Kurds. This week Amnesty International said Ankara is imperiling 200,000 people living in the areas affected by disrupting basic services, blocking their freedom of movement, and conducting firefights in residential areas.
