Should Turkey not have “democracy and autonomy?”
***Those are not Turks in eastern Turkey, they’re Kurds. So, by taking out the phrase “for indigenous groups” you change the meaning of the sentence and turn it into a straw argument.

My point: shouldn’t those in Washington who made the war plans do some explaining about those forty ships of infantry gear headed for Turkey?
***Sure, let Washington explain some gear, and let Turkey explain why they are quashing an indigenous democracy. One issue seems way bigger than the other.

RE: "***Those are not Turks in eastern Turkey, they’re Kurds."

Eastern Turkey? You mean Western Armenia?

BTW, the Armenian government and Diaspora are now deciding which court, international or U.S., to use to sue Turkey for recovery of territory and for compensation.

I cannot swear that the following is true but this guy SPENGLER's column has been around for awhile. Maybe it's true?

Turkish government allowed Kurds to resettle the portion of Eastern Anatolia then known as Western Armenia . . That is why Kurds now comprise a majority of the inhabitants of the former western Armenia

It's getting more and more complicated over there.
