Translation
According to news from The Associated Press last minute, speaking to AP 'senior Turkish official' in Ataturk Airport, he said about 50 people were killed.

I hope that the policeman was ok, and hope the other thing, rots in hell. What the hell makes these people like they are? IF it is their religion, I don't want to be anywhere near them again. I just won,t believe, that the Turkish people I ever met would support things like this either. Its so sad to see whats happening there. Stay safe, all you lovely people x.

ISTANBUL, June 29 (Reuters) - Turkish Airlines suspended its flights until 8 am (0500 GMT) on Wednesday, the company said in a statement, after suspected Islamic State bombers killed 36 people at Istanbul airport late on Tuesday.

The flag carrier said in another statement any bookings on flights to or from Istanbul Ataturk airport between 28 June and 5 July 2016 would be changed or refunded without any cost, provided the passenger requests this by July 31.

Terrible. Feel so sad for all the people of Turkey, the vast majority who are peace loving people who want to get on living their lives, much the same as in any county in the world. A small minority of terrorists choosing violence over talking can cause so much damage as we in the UK know from 70s and 80s with the NI troubles, when we suffered most of our terrorist attacks.

Istanbul airport is actually relatively safe. They detonated it at the entrance as you cannot go through into the main reception area without having bags etc scanned. recently we were in Manchester UK, and you can leave your car and walk into the main check inn area with no X ray/search at all. It is very difficult to stop attacks at the entrance to an airport.

All this talk of cars not being checked is nonsense. tTey are not checked at most airports in the world, even if they were, attackers could arrive by Metro.

I'm not. Tensions between countries leads to tensions between people. Europe managed to "normalise" relations with Germany after WW2, to get peace effort is required.
