Aftermath: Explosion in front of the US embassy in Ankara
Several people have been hurt after an explosion in front of the US embassy in the Turkish capital Ankara, reports say.
An Associated Press journalist reported seeing a body in the street at a side entrance.
It was not immediately clear what the cause of the blast was.
Another journalist Ilnur Cevik told Sky News: "There was a huge bang which really shook everywhere."
He was driving about 400 metres away from the US embassy when the reported blast happened.
Mr Cevik thought there were "a lot of injuries" as he "saw lots of ambulances and I thought there was something really serious".

This video has nothing related with islam. You are obviously too narrow-minded to have reasonable opinions.

@elmaarmut
narrow-minded? Are you fucking kidding me? When 999/1000 terrorist attacks are committed in the name of Islam I doubt anyone would be "narrow minded" to presume that the next attack will be by an Islamist too.
Here's how Islam responded to one dumb movie (speaking of being narrow minded):

20,300 Islamic terrorist attacks since 9/11:

@USA1
I just said this has nothing to do with islam. All suspects are members of some marxist-leninist organizations and they hate islam as much as you do.
And please do not confuse the islam in turkey with that in arabic countries. Most of the people here with enough iq think same way with you guys. Muslim or not.

@Huckilberry You support the zionist Erdogan?
You turkish zionists always protect the zionist and the imperialists.
Only PKK and Turkish socialists/communists groups have any dignity left
While the Turkish government is close to the Yankee regime NATO and the zionist entity

The name of the suicide bomber is "Ecevit Sanli", he is a member of DHKP-C (A communist terrorist organization which is very close to PKK).
2 died in this attack, DHKP-C suicide bomber and Turkish Guard working to protect embassy, named Mustafa Akarsu.
The suicide bomber also attacked a Turkish Army building in 1997.

@Joseph_21 thanks for the info but just a clarification:
"he is a member of DHKP-C (A communist terrorist organization which is very close to PKK)."
DHKP-C does not fight for a free Kurdistan - most, if not all, of it's members are Turks.

@mandalina you give 2 links to Turkish publications ("diplomaticobserver" and "sabah") that claim Greece is supporting those terrorist groups, a claim that your own state/government does not dare to officially make because they know that is ridiculous* and the whole world will laugh - but it's convenient for your state/government to leave these rumours circulate in Turkey...
(* it's also claimed in Turkey that not only Greece but also Italy and France is involved in this!)

Turkey is still a secular country, even though it has lately taken a turn for the wrong direction. However, I do believe this has been done by some snackbar (arab), who hate the Turks just as much as they hate the US Americans!

@Fuzkeren "the attacker was Ecevit Sanli, a member of an outlawed leftist group that news media reported as being the Revolutionary People's Liberation Party/Front (DHKP/C). The suspect in the attack spent eight months in prison for attending illegal demonstrations, Turkish news media said."

DHKP-C did this. Its a communist Terror Organization.. Not like Al Quaeda nothing related with ISLAM. They are not usually Muslim. They hate USA and capitalism. They are idiot anyway. If you do not know, just shut up. Turkey is a modern and secular country, not like Middle East shit. If USA or other countries takes their dirty hands off from us we will be more better.

400meters away from the embassy? That is a huge distance. Sorta fail, if the target was the Us embassy.
