PKK Attacks in Cities Try to Divide Turks and Kurds
Emre Uslu & Önder Aytaç, Todays Zaman | September 5, 2008
Intelligence sharing between the US and Turkey has forced the PKK out of the countryside and into the cities, bringing their violent attacks with them. ++ Further security measures, such as protected bus routes and tightened defenses around static targets, are needed to prevent future strikes. ++ Having failed to construct a separatist movement among the Kurds, the PKK now turns its attention to the Turks, attempting to use this new urban violence to exacerbate sentiments and pit them against their "Kurdish brothers."
