Yes, absolutely. But if you read the context, it actually supports what I'm saying. Turkish fans were expected to hold a minute silence for the victims of atrocities in Paris but there was no minute silence for those murdered in Turkey. No one was suggesting that they were supportive of the terrorists. Except Fox Network obviously. It was the hypocrisy that they objected to.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world ... 38741.htmlAbs Pangader Actually, they're chanting "Sehitler olmez, vatan bolunmez." Which means "Martyrs never die, the nation won't be divided." This is a common slogan thrown in remembrance of Turkish soldiers who fell victim to terrorism. In Turkey, there is rarely a minute of silence that isn't interrupted by this chant. Whether its a minute of silence for a Turkish catastrophe, or something else that happened globally, this always happens.
Mert Kilicsoy its was response of injustice, they didnt boo minute's silence for paris attack victims.the millions of ppl dying in turkey couse of terrorist attacks where were you when more than 100 people killed in Ankara ?
Mohamed El-Hami They were upset because there were mass killing by ISIL and Kurdish army and lots of deaths in turkey and no country or football team or fans in Europe stood a silence minute for their victims.
Babak Esmailpour When ISIS killed innocent Turkish who remain silent or salute them ?no one.
Motaz Amjad It's because of double standards, few weeks ago there was an attack in Ankara and more than hundred where dead In a " peace protest" yet nobody cared or gave minute silence for them. So they decided not to give something they didn't get, although you don't fix a mistake with another one but that's how it went. Mistakes happen.
Ibrahim Abdullahi Wada They were also attacked several times but no one cares. So they have many reasons to do that.
Shahab Raza Are only french people dying ??? How about others huh...minute of silence
Ahmed Azzam Why was there no minute silence for the innocent Iraqis murdered over the last decade, the Syrians who have been slaughtered, the Palestinians murdered, the genocide of the Burmese people...... Booing was wrong absolutely, but don't criticise people without context ... These people are sick of seeing western blood values so so so much more than others and it's a Rubbish... If you're gonna do a minute silence do if for everyone equally
Levent M. Hameed No one makes a minute of silence for all the victims i middle east. 150 deaths is a regular day in Iraq and Syria. Turkey is a neighbor to both of them and have relatives which died because of terror crimes. Without of minute of silence. That's why. And they're right. Its not against the victims, its about the hypocrisy.
Talha Shahid Coz Paris was not the first to be targeted.... Before that a lot more countries suffered this.
