'Advanced Islamist Democracy' Turkey claims US journalist Ignatius involved in plot against Turkish Gov.
'Advanced Islamist Democracy' Turkey claims US journalist Ignatius involved in plot against Turkish Gov.(Bugun).
According to a police report sent to the İstanbul Public Prosecutor’s Office, American journalist David Ignatius, Turkish journalist Emre Uslu and Islamic scholar Fetullah Gülen collaborated in a plot to topple the Turkish government.
The Turkish government’s latest salvo against allegations that it was arming Syrian rebels fighting the Assad regime including al-Qaeda, charges which Ankara claims are false and meant to discredit the administration, has now drawn the Washington Post in as part of a absurd global conspiracy supposedly aiming to undermine the government.
Sunday’s detention order was filed on the grounds that new evidence had emerged in the investigation into the affair.
According to the police report that prompted Sunday’s detention order, the military personnel had ‘been instructed’ to engage in their operation by a Washington Post op-ed penned by David Ignatius published on Oct. 16, 2013, titled “Turkey blows Israel's cover for Iranian spy ring,” as well as by a tweet by Turkish daily Taraf journalist Emre Uslu and a sermon by Islamic scholar Fetullah Gülen condemning terrorism. These coded instructions allowed for the military personnel to organize and stop the trucks.
The current investigation is being conducted by the İstanbul Police Department's Counterterrorism Unit. Operations were carried out on Sunday in eight provinces including İstanbul, Adana and Hatay to detain the suspects, with 27 officers detained so far. Hmmmm.......As long as Obama protects his BFF Erdogan things will only get worse in Turkey.
