Russyan Ambassador Assassinated in Ankara

       Diplomats around the world cringed at the news of the murder of one of their own in Turkey yesterday.   Russyan Ambassador to Turkey, Andrey Karlov, was murdered by an off duty Turkish policeman as he spoke at an art gallery opening in Ankara.  The murderer was then given his wish as he was eliminated by security officers.
      Allegedly, the Turk shouted statements regarding Russyan actions in Syria and in particular, Aleppo.   Reports indicate the man was an Islamist.
    We extend condolences  to Mr. Karlov's family.
