That is very terrible . Make a prayers for them .
God blessed them . I expect all countries in the world have a nice peace.

It is really sad that so many people died. But the blame must be put solely on Erdogan. This incident might have never occurred, had he refrained from helping various Islamist factions in Syria.

It really depends on fact who is behind this terrorist attack.
if Kurds terrorist are responsible for this attack, than this accident is not connected with Turkish politics in Syria.
Of course, also is possible that ISIS is behind this tragedy, we can't know now.
It seems that this age of terror will not finish soon.

This is not going to happen as long as there are greedy politicians and religious fanatics.


Very strange that no one has claimed responsibility for the attack

An eyewitness quoted by the Hurriyet newspaper said she had seen two attackers.

"Two people were shooting with weapons," she said. "Suddenly people started to run. My husband told me not to be afraid. He jumped on top of me. People ran over me. My man was shot in three places."

There will be all kinds of predictions of motives for attacks, I've already heard when our news here were broadcasting interviews from eye witnesses that one attacked was speaking arabic. Now that may sound like bullshit propaganda but I'm surprised that ISIS didn't take responsibility for the attack they take responsibility for everything, from bombings to a car hitting a woman on the road.

The PKK had urged for a ceasefire in 2015, but it was Erdogan who rejected it. In 2016, Erdogan launched a massive military operation in Turkish Kurdistan, which resulted in the deaths of more than a thousand Kurdish civilians. Don't you expect the Kurds to retaliate?

But indications are that this particular attack was perpetrated by the ISIS, possibly by some militant who received the Turkish military training.

Those damned Russian hackers! First they rig the American elections, leak Hillary's e-mails. They killed their own diplomat in Turkey, Then they organize immigrant rape-groups in Germany and now they kill people celebrating new years eve in the European part of Istanbul! DAMN those Russian hackers!

[bryant.coleman]

The ISIS has taken responsibility for the killings in Istanbul.

They have not released the identity of the attacker, probably because he is currently on the run. The Turkish Armed Forces are currently batting the ISIS in the vicinity of the Syrian city of Al Bab. A few days back, the Islamists had defeated the Turks in the battle for a small village on the outskirts of Al Bab.

sad news 

[jhony99]

what a sad bad news for this new year

[Lucius]

What surprised me in this sad story is the unbelievable failure in security of this nightclub,which is as many say one of the most popular in Istanbul.Only one policeman was near nightclub and he was killed.Where were the other policemens and security of nightclub when one men is shot a few minutes and then walked away as if nothing was happened?

This is either incredible incompetence of Turkish security forces(some info say that they get warning from US that big attack will happen),or they simply know and let this happen because of some sick political games being played in the background.

[Sithara007]

According to unconfirmed reports, the attacker was from the former Soviet nation of Kyrgyzstan. Once again, this proves that Erdogan's strategy is wrong. He has been granting work permits to these central Asian people, for growing the Turkish influence there.

[Chin Cheng]

I really cannot understand why these sort of things keep happening ,what is the motive and how can one shed their lives for killing more people it is just plain stupidity and when do people stop loving religion and start loving humans.Bullocks

Everyone should help in the demolition of ISIS. Its not only the US even though it was through them that ISIS emerged

[BADecker]

If they had left its name as Constantinople, they wouldn't be having any troubles at all.

You will not win with guns only.  You need to re-write Quran, remove/outlaw Sharia Law, remove all the military verses, pedophilia, killing of people for no reason, remove the 6th century moral code, make it a religion of peace, love your neighbor, want to leave Islam, no problem, type of religion.

Ideally, people will eventually evolve to drop this ancient religious nonsense, but until then you need to provide a 'replacement treatment' for those 2 billion people who are currently affected by this addiction.
