      I've lost track of censored pages. Reports came major newspaper's website was censored. Still, information flows, but verification is hard.

      Lack of verification isn't just due to censorship. Few working solid journalists left. Good ones fired. Lots of info, not enough filtering.

      Situation in Turkey spiraling out of control—no sane path out in sight yet. If you thought the MENA crisis was bad. This is catastrophic.

      Some think Turkey might go back to the nineties. That was bad enough. (40K dead, economic stagnation). What's emerging is potentially worse.

      Problems of the nineties might re-emerge, so there's that. But the parties to the conflict have greatly changed. Plus wars at the border.

      I tweeted last night about how horrific things were in Turkey, how they were getting worse, and no end in sight. Well, worse morning.

      Reports of multiple deaths in Cizre, including children. Residents say they can't even take the dead/wounded to hospitals. Mobile blackout.

      When the fragile peace in Kurdish conflict collapsed in July, I worried it would lead to catastrophic & long-term turmoil. On that path now.

      Worse, nobody seems in charge on either side with a commitment to immediate deescalation, only sane path. Alternative should be unthinkable.

      If this conflict does not quickly deescalate, the crisis unleashed won't just repeat nineties. Structural reasons it will be horribly worse.

          @zeynep either through conflict or democratic process, AKP will leave behind a sociocultural mess. That point has been passed long ago.
