The two Marines were on shore leave from the USS Wasp when a group of 15 attacked them in the western city of Izmir Monday, putting a sack over one of their heads and chanting “Yankee, go home.”

The US government is evil, those Turks probably just read up on the history of war crimes and saw what Americans do to the people they're occupying.
I wouldn't feel safe with Americans on my street, they're deranged.
You can see already our twanes can never meet
Why is Turkey in NATO?
If they don't want us there, we don't want them here.
I am an American proud of it at the end of the day they need us. We don’t need them.
Americans still think Muslims are their friends 😂
Quite idiotic of them to be there like that to begin with
Bazıları türklerle savaşalım demiş amerika boyle bir hataya bulasma burasi sizin bataklığınız olur biz arap degiliz🇹🇷
King Sobieski saved Europe from Islam, for which we should all praise his name!
There is no need in telling the peopke not to go to Turkey.
Anyone seen the inflation numbers?
Everything got so expensive.
It actually is a sinking ship, but nothing that 15 more years of Erdogan can't fix 🎉🎉🎉🎉
AMERICA IS A CRAP SHOW, WHY WOULD TURKEY RESPECT ITS CITIZENS?
😂😂😂
What was done in 2003 is remembered even in 2300.
ABC News, i subbed to ur channel
Get out, you're not welcome.
The us ter or ists shouldn't be in Turkey, the Middle East or anywhere for that matter.
Avoid USA safe keep in ur pocket😅
Bien fait pour sa gueule, c'est une insulte à la Turquie que cet américain ose aller en Turquie avec tout le mal et le désordre mondial que font les américains dans le monde entier. Il prend pour les autres, faut être vraiment débile, bref un américain qui se croyait encore le maître du monde partout où il va. Ca ne durera pas.
This is wrong , you shouldn’t blame them for their governments F ups.
The American people are really ignorant 🙄 the reason for this protest is the Sulaymaniyah Incident. On July 4, 2003, members of the Turkish Armed Forces and Turkmen soldiers under the command of a major, who established their headquarters in the Sulaymaniyah city of Northern Iraq, were put on sacks over their heads. Turkish soldiers were detained for 60 hours by soldiers of the American 173rd Air Brigade, which is affiliated with the occupation forces in Iraq. When you look at this incident, it is normal that Turkish people are still angry. The issue is not Syrians or Muslims, but the insult made to Turkish soldiers in 2003. The Turkish nation does not forget the insults and attacks made against them.
This is why America is the laughing stock of the whole world 😂 the new woke weak America
Why are they saying yankee like it’s an insult?
Turkey part of NATO? Hahaha inviting the wolves for dinner? you dumb europeans or should i say dumb white people. You never learn, dont worry there are some countries learning the hard way, however some have caught on and seeing through liberal lying garbage.
Is this real?
All Turkish people should not be blamed for this attack. Those who carried out this attack are a small group of people trying to benefit the government. As a Turk, I condemn this attack on a soldier, a human being, who was walking there as a civilian. Türkiye is a member of Nato… All the terrorist activities in the Middle East cause a lot of damage to my country. This action is wrong. It is an action that has no consequences or benefits. It is an uncontrolled and unauthorized group of people from a political party trying to benefit from the government.
That's the way, these people can't walk around amongst us and think they are immune to being confronted. The Israelis will already be very aware of that.
ahhahaha YANKEE GO HOME 🤣🤣 YOU ARE NOT WELCOME IN MUSLIM TURKIYE
Merhaba arkadaşlar ben bir Türküm ve şunu söylemek istiyorum öncelikle Türkler bu davranışı doğru bulmuyor ama 20 yıl önce ABD Türk askerlerine bunu yapti ve Türkiye'de hiç kimse bunu unutmadı ve öfkeli olmaları gayet normal 🇹🇷
dont forget how proud grey wolfes they are, dont forget grey wolves are nazis, dont forget islam+grey wolves and hitler were best friends
just get the FK out other's country's. USA don't the PLANET. we americans are ARROGANT.
hahahaha.
get out of their land. hahahaha.
Turkey you loser.😂😂😂
Don't go to turkey
The protest was a deliberate reference to the “Hood event” of July 4, 2003, when Turkish Special Forces in Sulaymaniyah, Northern Iraq, were detained by U.S. troops, who placed hoods over their heads. This event, which took place on U.S. Independence Day, created significant diplomatic tensions between the two NATO allies.
You media so freaking dumb ass t😂😂😂
Well Done Turkey. Now world know that this White Race ( Us, Canada , England) is dangerous to mankind. Whites hate all other race Muslims, Asians, Africans all.
🇦🇲🥒💦💦💦🇹🇷🇦🇿
Turkey don’t realise it yet but they will pay 4 that ungrateful Turks.
🇺🇸
Turkey is a craphole. Everyone in Europe knows it. Maybe Marines should figure it out as well.
Yıllardır müttefik olarak gözüken abd artık türkiyenin düşmanıdır nedeni ne biliyormusun türkiyenin tüm düşmanlarına silah vererek türkiyenin ustüne salması ve saldırması biz türkler doğru olan neyse onu biliriz ama yıllardır kandırılıyoruz abd hava savunma sistemi için yılllarca uğraştık vermedi bizi f 35 programından çıkardı etrafımız ateş çemberi burda yorum yapanlar keşke bu corafyada yaşasaydı
Boycott Turkey!
I don’t know why people go there anyway, being such a Muslim country.
Only auld dolls and slappers who go for the Turkish waiters and creeps.
This is fake!
Turkey is great place to visit… just dont be part of a military that commits genocide
😂 at the comments
The hypocrisy is wild ASF…
USA send Billions 💰 and weapons + troops to support a genocide!
American mainstream media is honestly pathetic at this point
NOW I SEE WHY KOREANS ARE RIGHT ABOUT BEING RACISTS. OH OH! AND I LOOOOOOVE HOW ARABIAN PEOPLE HATE US ALONG WITH THE AMERICANS 😂😂😂😂😂😂 ARABIANS ARE NOT MUSLIMS THEY JUST THINK THEY ARE 😂😂
Is dangerous to be an American tourist be careful fellow Americans
