Palestine is not recognized globally. For instance Israël doesn’t recognize it, which is part of the problem.

Turkey, like Israel, has labeled the PKK as terrorist organisation, however they say they are freedom fighters. This has been the case for Hamas and Hezbollah too, just like the IRA and ETA.

Not saying that terrorism is legitimized, but like the Israelites Turkey is involved in violent suppression of Kurds. It’s exactly the same situation, and Turkey can play at it as there’s no western moral high ground as Israel is allowed to do the same thing.

The Western Coalition was most welcoming towards the help of PKK fighting against Isis and the remnants of Saddam’s baathists, however.
