        (This walk was triggered because a CHP MP was jailed after CHP sided with AKP to strip MPs of immunity so Kurdish HDP MPs could be jailed.)https://twitter.com/aral/status/881407714018152453 …

        6. Erdoğan accuses CHP of working with terrorist groups. Moral of the story: First, they came for the Kurds, and I did not speak out…

        Stems at least from the days of Ataturk and very much tied to his notions of immovable borders and a single Turkish identity…

        Ah, I stand corrected. @MFarenger, please go with the superior explanation that Sinan just provided.

        I meant this doesn't start with day of Ataturk but later. Mostly after 50's and definitely not this hostile before AKP

        Right, thanks for clarifying. Although let’s not forget that things weren’t rosy before (denied their own language, etc.)

        Pretty much bullshit. Justice is justice and is for everyone. Doesn't matter who or what you are.
