Ultranationalists attack opposition campaigners in 3 places today

The biggest one took place in Erzurum. İmamoğlu could not finish the rally as an ultranationalist mob stoned the crowd. There are wounded people. Another happened in Trabzon. CHP deputies were subject to a lynch attempt. The third occurred in Mersin as Green Left Party members were attacked by ultranationalists with knives and stones. In the meantime, police in İstanbul attacked a Green Left Party women’s gathering in İstanbul.

AKP officials explicitly condoned these attacks. They have added another shameful day to their record…

But I still believe we will see better days.

Bugün👇
1-CHP mitingine ve İmamoğlu'na #Erzurum'da saldırdılar.
2-CHP vekillerine #Trabzon'da Linç girişimi.
3-Yeşil Sol Partiye #Tarsus'da bıçaklı taşlı saldırı.

Ve..

4-Tüm bunlara seyirci kalan emniyet, YSP #Kadıköy kadın buluşmasına saldırıp gözaltı yaptı.

Şimdi anladın mı?

In the meantime, for the 19th week, Israelis are giving Netanyahu a run for his money. This message is perhaps their best one yet. pic.twitter.com/kWa5hvgIWP
