“Could we be closer to another world war?”

Yes. This time the Continental United States won’t escape it.

So, who are the victims in this blast? Kurds?

If so, I’d suspect an inside job.

My pet conspiracy theory of the day:

Shiite allies of Russia (possibly Iranian intelligence) staging a revenge attack and sending a message to Erdogan.

Turkey supports ISIS so no way this is their handiwork.

“Shiite allies of Russia (possibly Iranian intelligence) staging a revenge attack and sending a message to Erdogan.”

How about Mossad agents doing this to fuel a war.

“Could we be closer to another world war?”

We are already in a world war, a widespread low-grade war, the intensity just hasn’t ramped up enough for you to recognize it as such. It started about 1,400 years ago. Consider how much violence is happening around the world - muslims are the cause most of it. The Russians and Chinese are another axis in this conflict. The West is only beginning to recognize the problem. In summary, the world is in a mess, but don’t worry - it will only get worse.

Stuff blows up in large cities every day. That is why it’s important to wait.

For example, 12 people were shot in a mass shooting in New Orleans. But if you wait a few days it is clear that it wasn’t terrorism. Just a normal weekend night in NOLA.

More evidence Assad/Putin may be aligned with ISIS, we know Assad has aided jihadis before.
