Fwd: [lbo-talk] Juan Cole: PKK Spin-Off Behind Istanbul Bombings

[cian]

He met the leader of the Turkish Hezbollah? All I saw in those links was him
meeting the member of Lebanese Hezbollah (which I remember, and strikes me
as unremarkable).

As for the other stuff about links to Al-Quaida - I've not seen anything
that didn't come from the usual Israeli disinformation sources.

I have trouble understanding why a shi'ite country, with no tolerance for
Sunnis within its own borders (or Kurds for that matter), would be
supporting a sunni extremist faction. Yes they supported the Lebanese
Hezbollah (a totally seperate organistion), but they were shi'ites.
