A Kurdish protestor attacks a row of ATMs, one of which is already burning, as demonstrators armed with firebombs and slings clashed with Turkish police in Istanbul, Turkey, Tuesday, April 19, 2011. The main Kurdish party threatened to boycott the upcoming election because of a decision to bar some Kurdish candidates. The ruling by the High Election Board was a serious blow to the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party, which is backing independent candidates in the June 12 national election in order to overcome a 10 percent threshold for political parties to enter the 550-seat Parliament.
