Travel to Turkey

Come with us to Northern Iraq for a springtime frolic with the lovely lady guerillas of the Kurdish Liberation Movement. Part 1 of 3: http://bit.ly/Female-Fighters-1 Part 2 of 3: http://bit.ly/Female-Fighters-2 Part 3 of 3: http://bit.ly/Female-Fighters-3 From Boudica of the British Celts to Corporal Klinger, few things unsettle the male mind like a lady in arms. The Kurds of Northern Iraq have long recognized this principle and incorporated it into their quest to build a Kurdish homeland in the overlap between Iraq, Iran, Turkey, and Syria. Fighting alongside their male comrades in a region not exactly known for its progressive stance on women's rights, the female Peshmerga guerillas of the Kurdish Liberation Movement built a reputation for themselves in the 70s and 80s as demure diaboliques with the deadly poise of Leila Khaled or Tania-era Patty Hearst. Having secured the northern third of Iraq for themselves in the aftermath of the first Gulf War, the Kurds have spent the last two decades divesting themselves of their guerilla jamjams, building up a stable and booming economy in their semi-autonomous little hamlet, and generally enjoying not being in the middle of the current Iraq War. Up in the hills abutting Iran and Turkey, however, the struggle for a Greater Kurdistan continues for boy and girl alike. The successors to Iraqi Kurdistan's old rebel militias are a milk-besodden Alphabits bowl of various Maoist, quasi-Maoist, and won't-say-they're-Maoist-but-come-on guerilla armies. You've got the PKK, the PJAK, the KCK—all of whom have slightly different tactics, territories, and ideologies but the same ultimate goal and, secretly, a lot of the same personnel. More importantly, they are all completely gender-equal, just like Mao wanted it. From the highest command to the lowest potato peeler to the ghillie-suited sniper on the front lines, dudes and dames do it the same. We picked the youngest of these new Kurdish guerilla groups, PJAK, the Free Life for Kurdistan party, and drove up to their outpost on the Iranian border to see how their female fighters are helping their people draft a definitive answer to the Kurdish Question that's vexed Middle-Eastern politics for the last century. And hopefully find an answer to our own Kurdish Question. Which is, What the fuck is the Kurdish Question?

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Dont be timid! Take a tour of this huge and endlessly fascinating Grand Bazaar with a guide or plunge right in by yourself. Getting lost inside this labyrinth is part of the fun. All the shopkeepers speak multiple languages and will gladly point you in the right direction if asked.. The Grand Bazaar is open Monday through Saturday only, not Sunday. Remember that Sunday closing when making plans or you'll be crying big crocodile tears. How sad it would be to miss the oldest and largest shopping mall in the WORLD, with 64 avenues and streets. Don't expect super-dooper bargains but it is a rare person that comes out empty-handed and that includes Travels With Sheila!

Turkey's one of the biggest lakes.. Hazar Lake is a volcanic lake at the foot of Hazarbaba mountain 30 km. from Elazig in Eastern Anatolia which has a 7 km width and 22 km. of length with the deepest point of 250 m. The Eastern Anatolian fault line passing under the Hazar Lake is still active and has caused many changes in the water level of the lake through the history. The so called sunken city under the lake which is the focus of our underwater survey is located at the western of the lake between the Kilise island and the main land in the south. On the contrary of the rising water level in the past, the water level has been decreasing during the last years that's why it is possible now to see the top of the two towers in the entrance of the city walls. ps:photos are not mine.

..SONG BY RAY CHARLES..VIDEO BY THECOWBOY4411@YOUTUBE Oh beautiful for heroes proved, In liberating strife, Who more than self, our country loved, And mercy more than life, America, America may God thy gold refine, Til all success be nobleness And every gain devined. And you know when I was in school, We used to sing it something like this, listen here: Oh beautiful, for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple maountain majesties, Above the fruited plain, But now wait a minute, I'm talking about America, sweet America You know, God done shed his grace on thee, He crowned thy good, yes he did, in brotherhood, From sea to shining sea. You know, I wish I had somebody to help me sing this (America, America, God shed his grace on thee) America, I love you America, you see, My God he done shed his grace on thee, And you oughta love him for it, Cause he, he, he ,he crowned thy good, He told me he would, with brotherhood, (From sea to shining Sea). Oh lord, oh lord, I thank you Lord (Shining sea).

Istanbul offers a good opportunity to better understand Islam. Visitors are welcome to visit historic mosques — such as the Blue Mosque, nicknamed because of its blue tiles — and at the same time experience a religion that still packs the house.

Get live updates from VICE here: http://www.vice.com/read/tim-pool-liv... On Friday, May 31, Turkish riot police fired tear gas and pepper spray into a peaceful protest held to save Gezi Park, one of the last green areas in central Istanbul. This set off the biggest civil uprising in the history of the Turkish Republic, calling for Prime Minister Erdogan's resignation. The unrest has spread like wildfire to more than 60 cities where protests are still ongoing. We landed in Istanbul the day it all kicked off.
