Damning evidence or damning evidence? Why is this scumbag of a country allowed in NATO? They are no different to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Pakistan when it comes to supporting Islamic jihadism.

The Turkish army shelled Kurdish militia in northern Syria for a second day on Sunday, while Russia made clear it would continue bombing Syrian rebel targets, raising doubts that a planned ceasefire would bring much relief. The Kurdish YPG militia, helped by Russian air raids, seized an ex-military air base at Menagh last week, angering Turkey, which sees the YPG as an extension of the PKK (The Kurdistan Workers' Party), a group that waged a bloody insurgent campaign on Turkish soil over most of the past three decades.
"The target was the Menagh air base in northern Syria and close to the Turkish border. Up until Thursday, it was in the hands of the al Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front," CBC's Dominic Valitis explained, reporting from London.
