By Ayla Jean Yackley and Humeyra Pamuk
ISTANBUL, Jun 29 (Reuters) Turkey pointed the finger at Islamic State today for a triple suicide bombing and gun attack that killed 41 people at Istanbul's main airport, and President Tayyip Erdogan called it a turning point in the global fight against terrorism.
