The map is extremely revealing of the targeted groups in Turkey. Kurds.

They could be the people that were arrested last year during the failed coup and then disappeared. The Caliphate is alive and well in Turkey. Germany with their many Turkish laborers had better watch out.
I live in Spain and recently found out that only Cambodia has more unmarked mass graves. In the Franco years they were pretty tough on any opposition.
