Why do you think the suicide bomber chose to attack this particular part of Istanbul? CAUSE & EFFECT I think the suicide bomber chose to attack the heart of Istanbul’s historic district for a variety of possible reasons. One possible reason, according to the text, was that it was a popular tourist attraction for Germans in the country of Turkey. The text pointed out that Germany and Turkey are part of a coalition that forced ISIS out of the country of Iraq. It’s possible that ISIS wanted revenge for attacking ISIS oil infrastructure.

These are a few reasons why I believe the suicide bomber chose to attack the city of Istanbul, Turkey.
