High-level Turkish whistleblower reveals state sponsorship of Islamic State Posted on September 17, 2016 by Editorial Staff in 1 Top News, Kurdistan Ed Sykes | The Canary A former high-level official in Turkey is speaking out about government sponsorship of Daesh (Isis/Isil) and other terrorist groups. Ahmet Sait Yayla was on the front line of Turkey’s intervention in the Syrian conflict. He was Chief of the Counter-Terrorism and Operations Division of Turkey’s National Police from 2010 to 2012. But after witnessing Turkish state collusion with Daesh, he chose to speak out, accusing President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of deliberately sponsoring the group. Since starting to blow the whistle on this relationship, Yayla’s family has been targeted. After July’s failed coup attempt – which mounting evidence suggests was actually “staged” by Erdoğan’s regime, his 19-year-old son was arrested, and other members of his family had their passports cancelled. All because of the explosive information he was revealing. The Canary has now seen exclusive interview transcripts obtained by INSURGE Intelligence – a summary of which is given below. Backing for jihadis under the veil of charity One of Yayla’s biggest allegations is that Turkish intelligence actively armed and supported jihadi groups in Syria. In 2014, allegations were made that ammunition and weapons had been found in trucks supposedly transporting aid from the Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH) into Syria. This non-governmental organisation allegedly had the support of Turkey’s National Intelligence Organisation (MİT). In his interview with INSURGE, Yayla alleges that IHH is integrated into Turkey’s sponsorship of terror groups. He states that IHH has long been a key partner of the Turkish International Cooperation Agency (TIKA) – the official government aid agency , and that the main contact for the IHH was Hakan Fidan (MİT chief since 2010). Fidan was a prime suspect in a number of targeted assassinations of left-wing intellectuals, journalists, and human rights advocates in the 1990s. And the perpetrators of these terrorist attacks had links to Turkish Hizbollah (TH) – a right-wing group which emerged in the 1980s and was allegedly controlled by Turkish armed forces from the very beginning. (Note that a key Daesh figure in Turkey today, Halis Bayancuk, is the son of a founding member of TH.) Though a wanted man, Fidan returned from self-imposed exile after Erdoğan’s AKP party took power in 2002. His ‘wanted’ status soon disappeared. During counter-terrorism investigations, Yayla says, evidence showed that the IHH was “behind much of the support to ISIS” coming from Turkey, with several hundred supply trucks being sent into Syria from 2012 onwards. But the IHH wasn’t the only group supporting jihadis in Syria. Yayla, who had unrestricted access to relevant police records at the time, says: “The MİT openly carried weapons and explosives to Syria by truck as well as by actual fighters being transported by buses, several times. Some of them were caught by Turkish police… [and] drivers openly admitted that [the] MİT had hired them to transport those terrorists and foreign fighters.” Head to head with government-Daesh collusion Yayla also speaks of how the Governor of Şanlıurfa – a city near the Turkish-Syrian border – openly spoke to jihadi groups in front of him. He explains how, from 2013 to 2014: “ISIS fighters were being brought across the border into Şanlıurfa to be treated in Turkish hospitals. As chief of police, I was being asked by the governor to send my officers to provide 24/7 protection for those wounded terrorists… No one charged any money for the treatment.” This happened until 2015, when increasing pressure from the US to join the fight against Daesh, along with a number of anti-jihadi successes in northern Syria, led Erdoğan to make a political shift to all-out war against his secular enemies at home and abroad. By then, Yayla had already been pushed out of these operations for his failure to fall in line, being moved by the Governor from counter-terrorism to the Public Order and Investigations Department. Police prevented from arresting terrorists But even in a different department, Yayla entered into conflict with the Turkish political establishment. In Şanlıurfa, he says: “Basically, the police were not allowed to stop ISIS inside the city… Turkish counter-terrorism officers would reach out to our officers through direct phone contact and tell them to just release the terrorists.” He also insists that: “Erdoğan had in 2015 assigned [now leader of Daesh operations in Turkey, Halis] Bayancuk 24/7 police protection.” Senior detectives following suspected terrorists, meanwhile, would be told by the counter-terrorism department: “Don’t stop them, it’s not your job.” And they’d then be investigated themselves. In the city of Gaziantep, close to the Turkish-Syrian border, Yayla speaks of how Daesh had a massive “logistical support base”. Once also a base for TH and al-Qaeda, thousands of uniforms were made there, there were “huge apartments filled with jihadists”, and fighters would “go back and forth across the border freely”. This consciously blind eye from the government saw Daesh ramp up its activities and attacks in Turkey. But with some police officers not on board with this collusion, Erdoğan needed a crackdown. And the July coup was a perfect opportunity to do this. Why has Turkey backed Daesh? Yayla says: “For Erdoğan, political Islam is merely a useful tool to consolidate his support base in Turkey. And it is now his main tool to use against all domestic opposition to his rule – in particular the Kurds, who are a potent fighting force against ISIS.” Victory for Kurdish-led defence militias over Daesh in northern Syria in early 2015 set off a chain of events that saw Erdoğan finally abandon a promising peace process with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) in July 2015. Terror attacks on Turkish soil aimed at left-wing and Kurdish activists increased, and President Erdoğan launched a destructive and divisive offensive on Kurdish communities. The aim, apparently, was to undermine the budding popularity of left-wing secularism in Kurdish communities in both Syria and Turkey, and to keep the border open in order to influence the outcome of the Syrian conflict in a way acceptable to Erdoğan’s regime. For Erdoğan, allowing Kurdish political autonomy in Turkey or on the Syrian side of the border could lead to a loss of power on the Turkish border with Iran, Iraq, and Syria – a loss that would seriously undermine his regional political ambitions. This is why he’s gone to such great lengths to stop the growth of Kurdish-led secularism. If Yayla’s assertions are to be believed, we now have yet more evidence that Erdoğan’s regime has armed and supported Daesh for years. Yet more evidence that Western citizens and their governments ignore at their own peril.

Turkey-backed rebels in Syria threaten to massacre US troops, calling them infidels ALEPPO – On Friday, 25 US Special Forces were expelled from al-Rai town by Turkey-backed Syrian rebels calling them infidels. This comes after the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) that recently raised US and British flags on the border with Turkey. According to the pro-opposition Qasioun agency, the Ahrar ash-Sharqiya brigade protested the US entry in Syria, demanding the US troops to withdraw. Video footage showed rebels calling the US Special Forces infidels and dogs, while shouting ‘Allah Akbar’ in Arabic. A rebel on video is heard saying: “We don’t accept US soldiers to fight with us, we are Muslim and not Kuffar [unbelievers],” one rebel said. Washington-based analyst Charles Lister said it was a mistake by the Syrian rebel group. “A dispute erupted when FSA fighters accused U.S. SOF of being pro-YPG [Kurdish People’s Protection Units]. American personnel withdrew; some to Turkey, some to Tathamus,” he said. According to reports, the US Special Forces returned to al-Rai after meditation. “That’s what happens when you team up with Turkish-backed Islamists at expense of our true allies: YPG and SDF,” Julie Lenarz, the Executive Director of the Human Security Centre, told ARA News. “The images coming out of Jarablus call into question the narrative that the city has been liberated. In territory cleared by SDF we see burqa-burning women, smoking men and children playing on the streets – people returning to normal life,” she added. “In Jarablus, however, it appears that ISIS has just been replaced with Turkish-backed Islamist rebels, who maintain a tight grip on the city,” Lenarz told ARA News. According to Lenarz, the videos showing Turkish-backed rebels chasing out US Special Forces from the al-Rai town shows that those rebels are not moderate. “It should serve as a reminder that not being as brutal as ISIS does not necessarily make other rebels ‘moderate’ – a principle often forgotten in Syria. Islamism can take different forms, but it is inherently intolerant,” she said. “From homogeneous Sunni groups subscribed to that ideology we cannot expect the same levels of tolerance shown by SDF and YPG, who have proven time and again their commitment to religious pluralism, gender equality, and basic human rights,” she added. “The US and allies have to be clear what values and principles they wish to support in Syria and the long-term implications of sitting on their hands, while Turkish-backed rebels, with a worldview antithetical to ours, are attacking Kurdish and Arab forces, who have shown willingness to work with us towards a more peaceful, inclusive and secular society in Syria,” she concluded. Also, Americans that fought with the Kurdish YPG forces are outraged that US special forces are even helping Turkish-backed rebels, while the YPG and Syrian Democratic Forces fought for two months for the town of Manbij. “It shows levels of political double talk on how we need to stop ISIS but yet remain with a NATO ally who openly helps ISIS,” said Albert Harrington, a former YPG volunteer. “It was a mistake to work with moderate terrorist rebels.” “The only true force in the region that can be trusted are the Kurds,” Harrington told ARA News. “This incident should serve as a reminder, or even a wake-up call, to the Americans. There’s more to Syria than just defeating ISIS,” said David Romano , a Thomas G. Strong Professor of Middle East Politics at Missouri State University. “Washington should think about who it would prefer controlling large parts of the country — the Turkish-backed ‘moderate’ groups that just threatened to massacre U.S. troops sent to help them, or the Kurds and their multi-ethnic and multi-religious allies in the Kobane, Jezira and Afrin,” Romano told ARA News. “U.S. officials and forces have always been welcome and quite safe in the latter areas.” Reporting by: Wladimir van Wilgenburg Source: ARA News http://aranews.net/2016/09/turkey-backed-rebels-syria-threaten-massacre-us-troops-calling-infidels/ |

Lunatic Erdogan wants a new Ottoman Empire Erdogan “claims” Thessaloniki and Thrace 18.10.2016 17:01 Greece SigmaLive Turkish President Recep Erdogan once more revealed his expansionist “Neo-Ottoman” vision, during a provocative speech in the north-eastern region of Rize. Addressing a number of issues linked to the Turkish involvement in surrounding conflict regions, including Syria and Iraq, Erdogan made reference to the “borders of our heart,” presenting his understanding of contiguous borders of other countries that he claimed were historically tied to Turkey. In an excerpt of his speech, Erdogan went so far as to say that in their minds, Turks could not separate Andrianoplis from Thessaloniki, Greece’s second largest city. “We express our respect to the geographical borders of nations, but we cannot mark borders on our hearts,” he noted. In his speech, the Turkish President brought up the borders of countries spanning from Thrace and the Balkans to north Africa, western Europe and the Caucus regions, adding that “Turkey is not only Turkey.” “As well as the 79 million Turkish citizens, Turkey has a responsibility to hundreds of millions of brothers in geographic areas connected with us culturally and historically,” he underlined. His speech caused a strong reaction from the Greek Foreign Ministry, which released a statement pointing out that Thrace was Greek and “any other thought is dangerous and unacceptable.” The statement called the Turkish President to order, claiming his inflammatory speech “undermined regional stability.” “The public stirring of historical, and especially border disputes, that have been irrevocably and definitively settled in the Lausanne Treaty by laying down an objective and binding status quo for all, is provocative and undermines the regional stability,” the statement read. The Ministry went on to say that the respect of International Law and Treaties warranted the voicing of responsible views detached from outdated revisionisms.

Turkey-Russia sign landmark agreement on Syria High-level government sources told Yeni Şafak daily that a new map will be drawn including the Aleppo, Idlib, Latakia, Raqqa, Al-Hasakah and Dery ez-Zor provinces of the country. The essence of the deal will reportedly allow Turkey-backed forces to enter Aleppo and Assad forces will withdraw from the city. The prewar demographic structure would be taken as the base of this project. Turkey and Russia will not accept the PYD / PKK corridor in Rojava that aimed to include al-Hasakah, Tal Abyad, Ayn al Arab, Jarabulus, Al Rai, Azez, Marea and Afrin under the name of ‘federation’, ‘canton’ or ‘autonomous region’. Both countries will fight jointly against the PYD / PKK group under Turkish military launched operation Euphrates Shield, according to the new deal. The areas will be handed over to the local elements and local assemblies after being liberated from the terror groups. \Operation Euphrates Shield (OES), a Turkish military-backed Free Syrian Army’s (FSA) counter terrorism campaign in northern Syria, was launched on Aug. 24 to clear border cities from Daesh and PYD terror groups. Around 1,300 square kilometers areas have already been cleared and security has been established in the region. Thousands of Syrians returned to their homes from Turkey. FSA forces have reached the outskirt of the besieged Aleppo and advancing towards the city of al-Bab, a Daesh stronghold on northeast Aleppo. Turkish President Erdoğan said a week ago that the OES will advance toward south and would clear areas from terrorists totaling 5,000 sq km. Recent massive attacks from the opposition groups from western Aleppo attempting to break the month-long regime siege is also considered a part of this agreement. Russia ceases air raids over Aleppo Despite undergoing a heavy loss of regime forces in western Aleppo, Russia ruled out conducting any air support to Assad forces in the city. Russian Defense Ministry Spokesperson Igor Konshenkov said this weekend that Russian aircrafts had not launched any single operation in the city in the last 13 days. Moreover, Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected a defense ministry request to resume air strikes on Aleppo. The sources said that the Assad regime will consolidate its power in Latakia and Tartus. But Russia insisted on withdrawing of Al-Nursa and Ahrar ush-Sham fractions from the area. Meanwhile, Turkey continues reinforcing its power in the liberated areas between Azaz-Jarabulus line. Many tanks and armored vehicles along with the military personnel has been deployed in the İslahiye border line in Gaziantep on Sunday. http://www.syriahr.com/en/?p=53655 |
