Anatomy of cultivated rampant nationalism in Turkey

Al-Jazeera reports the Turkish cabinet is meeting to discuss its next moves in economic measures, while the Iraqi government implements measures to thwart PKK movements. Laurence Lee reports on the flood of young people volunteering to join the army and interviews a peace activist in Turkey who explains how such a phenomenon at this time can be seen as the result of manipulation, as well as because of the very way of life in Turkey.

@gettingchilli you're brainwashed, kurds fought with us against the brits, greeks and armenians to defend turkey. why would they do that if we did the massacres? you are so dumb, probably a greek, armenian or any other anti-turkish citizen. you have never been in turkey, never read anything about it, dont know the history and you just repeat what your western media tells you.
