I seldom say this about a story in a mainstream newspaper, but DO read the comments. Of course I don't vouch for accuracy since I don't know about Turkey, but unlike normal comments they form a coherent narrative. I will leave to those informed about the area to note whether the narrative is true or not, to what extent there are US propaganda interests involved and so on.
