Istanbul / / Turkey Protest against war in Syria 10.04.2012
 Part of channel(s): Syria (current event)

For several months, impressive demonstrations against the war with Syria have taken place in Turkey, but only in the Arabic or Kurdish regions. On Thursday, 4 October 2012, for the first time, a massive demonstration streamed through Istanbul shouting "This war is not ours!"




The choice of the Erdogan government to join NATO’s operations against Libya, and to support the covert war against Syria has brutally Turkey’s stunted its economic growth.




Quite apart from the economic difficulties flogging the whole of society, certain sectors of the population feel particularly sympathetic towards the Syrian people and the regime in Damascus. This applies especially to one million Arabs, 15 million Kurds and an equal number of Alevis.

  • The Turkish leadership has sold out their friends and caused tens of thousands of deaths, they sure as shit ain't gonna listen to a few protesters. They want to keep their pipeline monopoly, and gold trumps honor.

  • If this really displays as what it is described, I'm glad to see that not all Turkish people are as dumb as their islamist chief Erdogan.

  • Erdogan is not representing us, he is representing the will of Emirate of Qatar...

  • Sorry but having a LL upload with no source at all.

    No evidence of the country where it is and no audio commentary makes this a wonderful fairy tale.

    Facts are this might be true but facts are that currently you've failed to prove anything.

    • @Rayyaan Yes Rayyan you are right.
      This rally was held in Istanbul on 4th of october. (In the video you see the a little part of Taksim Square and Istiklal Avenue. There were at least 30 thousands of protestors according to Turkish media. I was in the demonstration, the people are saying "killer USA colloborator AKP" and "long live the sisterhood of the nations" "This country is ours down with imperialism." you can check http://onedio.com/haber/-savasa-hayir-demek- More..

  • Don't get amazed. İstiklal Avenue already looks like this without the demonstrators (google it). Number of demonstrators is much less than you think. They are mostly radical leftist nutjobs and they are better considered extinct, they only receive 0,1% of the votes. This demonstration won't change anything.
