[speakoutforum] THE TURKISH BUBBLE

For the last twenty or so years Turkey has convinced the US lawmakers and to some extend the American public that she is a staunch ally protecting and promoting the US interests in the region. The US responded with financial help and by adopting the Turkish strategic objectives to the detriment of important relationships with other allies in the area. Turkey has accomplished this with the utilization of "revolving door" consultant spending serious money and by building bridges with the mass media especially a few very prominent newspapers. Detailed examination of the Turkish actions from the time of WWII, when Turkey was in the enemy camp, to this day, shows clearly that Turkey pursues policies helping her own interests which most of the time in critical junctures were and are against the vital interests of the US!

During the period of the cold war Turkey maintained close relationship
with the Soviets holding frequent conferences and on vital issues
helping the Soviets not only in the Middle East but in Africa as well.
There are scores of occasions of Turkish hostile action against the US
during this period. Notable examples are; allowing the soviet planes
fly over Turkish Air space during the conflict in the Horn of Africa,
generally offering unhindered passage of the Soviet fleet from the
Black Sea to the Aegean and of course the unprecedented breach of NATO
solidarity by not allowing US troops cross the Turkish territory
during the Iraq conflict; according to the US Department of Defense
this hostile action by Turkey cost US taxpayers a lot of money and the
US Military a lot of lives!

Now with Mr. Erdogan as the Prime Minister and Mr. Davutoglou as the
Minister of Foreign Affairs Turkey is implementing a dangerous policy
aligning with the doctrine of Islam, creating and in fact leading the
Islamic block from Pakistan to Bosnia which includes Iran. Isolation
of Israel, protecting Muslim minorities in neighboring countries,
efforts in the Islamization of Europe are parts of the strategic
puzzle that Mr. Davutoglou visualizes for the establishment of the Neo-
Ottoman Empire. In order to build a regional power let alone an empire
however a country must have the intellectual substrate, the relevant
civilization, the coherent internal society, the financial wherewithal
and the fiscal astuteness; Turkey has none of that, a rogue country,
in civil war for the last thirty five years saved on several occasions
from bankruptcy by the generosity of the US.

This Turkish new vision, utopia in itself, does however irreparable
damage to the interests of our key allies and in extension to our own
vital interests in the area. Turning against Israel and alignment with
Iran on the subject of the nuclear proliferation is tantamount to an
act of war; it fosters instability and encourages the fundamentalist
Muslim zealots to take hostile action with unpredictable consequences!

We have created a political monster by supporting Turkey for all these
years implement her policies in the Balkans and the Middle East; now
the monster is turning against us and Israel! The US has the power to
stop this dangerous game before it gets out of hand. Any financial
accommodation for Turkey must stop, the US support for the Turkish
accession to the EU must be reversed, export of arms to Turkey must be
further regulated and the US must seek other counterbalancing
strategic alliances in the area. Failing to do so would cost us losses
and Israel might turn out to be the country that would pay an unfair
and unnecessary price!

Basil Venitis, twitter.com/Venitis, points out NATO includes Turkey, the #1 terrorist nation, that indulges in genocides, such as the Armenian genocide, the Greek genocide, the Pontian genocide, and the Cypriot genocide, and pogroms such as the Istanbul pogrom, a state-sponsored and state-orchestrated pogrom that compelled Greeks to leave Istanbul, in violation to the Treaty of Lausanne. NATO should either expel terrorist Turkey or disband.

Venitis notes that since terrorist Turkey declared Casus Belli against Fourth Reich(EU) and Turcoterrorists continue to abuse the Fourthreichian islands near the Turkish border and traffic drugs and illegal immigrants to Greece, Fourth Reich reinforced its border management agency, Frontex, enhancing its operational capacity to support Greece against Turcoterrorism. Member States now put more equipment and more personnel at Frontex's disposal in the Aegean Sea of Greece. Frontex now coleads border patrol operations with Greece.
