A powerful explosion rocked a busy commercial neighborhood in the Turkish capital Tuesday, and at least 20 people, including foreigners, were injured, CNN-Turk television reported. Television video showed medics tending to the injured and carrying people into ambulances on stretchers.
The cause of the blast, outside one of the oldest shopping malls of Ankara and near bus stops, was not immediately known.

More Buddhist Separatists again!
No way, it's the Mormons don't you know. ;-)
I guess the Methodist vs Baptist softball game did not go so well on Sunday afternoon.
Depending on what’s found to be the actual cause of the blast, could be somebody’s sending the Turkish govt a message.
“plastic explosives left near bus stops in one of the city’s busiest commercial centers, caused the blast.”
al-Radical Amish?
It’s those Mennonites. Aren’t they having discussions with Iran?
Sounds like the work of the ELF, the Eskimo Liberation Front. They are everywhere.
Wow...didn’t know the ELF was back!!!
Now all we need is an ELF rap song!
It may very well be the Kurdish terrorists, like PKK. This will only increase the pressure on the Turkish military to go after the PKK in Iraq.
Would the Kurds be that stupid??? I just asking the question...
From the foxnews.com article linked to above: "In September, suspected Kurdish rebels set off a bomb at a bus stop in Turkey's largest majority Kurdish city of Diyarbakir, killing 10 people. A month earlier, a hard-line Kurdish militant group claimed responsibility for a bus bombing in the Mediterranean resort of Marmaris that injured 20 people, including 10 Britons."
ROFLAMAO!!!!!! ROFLMAO!!!
