ISIL trap for Turkey…

Is there a trap being set up against Turkey via a joint operation on ISIL? There is a serious situation present and Turkish public opinion is being forced to some certain things. What kind of a relation is there between the ones who planned the hostage act and the will that forces us into an operation?

Let"s think about it together…

Under the leadership of the USA and Europe, a new international operation on Iraq via ISIL is being prepared. There is an intense diplomatic dynamism between the NATO countries in this direction. If we are to look at the USA Secretary of State"s Baghdad visit, the USA officials" pressure on Turkey, and Germany"s attempts to put Turkey in a "Country that supports ISIL" position, then it seems like we will be experiencing Iraq-based important developments soon. Following the summit, which will gather in Saudi Arabia, the operation might take action. Likewise, there had been marvelous studies carried out upon the matter of forming environmental conditions for the past two months and finally the environment is ready.

Within all this rush, the focal point is Turkey and Ankara"s attitude against this. The USA and Europe had already made their decisions on the operation. As for the regional countries, they never had the option or an opinion against the decisions of the USA or Europe. Now, all together, they are pressuring Turkey.

Like the March 1st Memorandum

The oppression is being made with the matter of putting all the weight on Turkey"s shoulders, rather than on being a partner of the operation. Otherwise, they can conduct a joint operation from the air any time they want. After all, they have been hitting ISIL"s positions for a long time now. In addition to the intense air strike for a week, they can use the land forces of the Baghdad administration and Northern Iraq administration. But they are not doing this. Because Baghdad"s and Northern Iraq"s land forces are not sufficient for this. Right at that point, their eyes are turning towards Turkey. We knew that the ones, who are saying, "We cannot do without Turkey", are actually trying to say, "We cannot do without Turkey"s land forces". In other words, they want soldiers from Turkey for a land operation. As if we are experiencing the March 1 memorandum once again. Give us soldiers and leave the rest. You fight; we will divide up between us. You die; we exploit, and designate the maps. You fight, but don"t meddle with Iraq. If you do, then your consulate authorities will be taken hostage and you will be left with tied hands…

Stop right there….

There is a twofaced, imposter diplomacy traffic like the "Turkey is overlooking, and protecting them" propaganda, which is being serviced to the British media regarding the ISIL warriors that went to Iraq from London.

Then who kidnapped the hostages?

Let me speak clearly: The mentality that had our Mosul consulate raided and kidnapped 49 of our citizens and the mentality that is trying to drag Turkey to the ISIL front are the same….

After all, they don"t have hostages.

They are compressing Turkey to a narrow field between ISIL and the hostages. If Turkey doesn"t support the joint operation, they will start the "They are supporting ISIL" campaign. The will that imprison Turkey to such a dilemma and the "state"s will" that is behind the hostage action are separate. Moreover, this will is the will that deceived Turkey regarding the Syria matter and left Turkey behind.

There is a game being planned. Though, all the elements of the scenario are clearly out in the open. Turkey is aware of the games and, no matter what they say, Turkey will follow its own rights.

They didn"t pay much attention to any warnings of Turkey regarding the essential issues of the region, and ignored Turkey"s worries. Now they are trying to throw Turkey into the fire with the ISIL excuse. The Iraq invasion and the status quo, which is formed after the invasion, and the mentality, which had punished Sunnis because they had resisted against the invasion, are the heads responsible for the ISIL issue. The funny thing is the countries, which are preparing for the new operation, have no resolution project related with the future of the Sunni. Then, after their operation, there will be another ISIL or organization. Leaving the project aside, there is not even a resolution will or desire.

All the news related with the ISIL matter in the past two months are a service. This service is for the mobilization of the public opinion. It"s not as if we will defend ISIL or regard them as normal. However, it"s also necessary to present the truth. Some countries, which are close allies of Turkey, shouldn"t attempt to make us pay for their sins…

Turkey shouldn"t take part in this operation. Turkey shouldn"t step up clearly. Neither Iraq"s issues nor the Sunni Arabs" issues are being solved by means of solving the ISIL issue or making operations. Without solving the Sunni Arabs" issue, no issue in Iraq can be solved. The power gap there can"t be solved. If ISIL leaves, another ISIL will arrive and all the countries that are making an operation will be supporting these organizations for their own benefits. Because of this reason, ISIL is an overstatement. It"s a blinding. Their other essential issue is their camouflage function.

First of all, solve the Syria issue

Turkey is surely a NATO country. Certainly, Turkey is the partner of international corporations. Certainly, Turkey will do its part in the global-scaled operations. However, somehow the priorities of those international corporations are always against us. We are really fed up with the destructions, errors caused in our region by those countries and we are being forced to pay the price for them. If something happens to one of the hostages, who will account for it? Otherwise, does someone desire this reckoning within?

This even pops out in people"s minds…

Mobilizing for the USA"s and Europe"s benefits and priorities, being in the center of the operation, or sending soldiers there, are matters that should be thought about deeply and should be kept away from. Let them go solve their own problems first. Before ISIL, there used to be a Syria problem. They haven"t done anything there. They couldn"t even take a step. They didn"t keep any of their promises. Without solving the Syria issue, the ISIL issue cannot be solved.

Don"t they even know that?

But that"s not their worry…

Their worries are Turkey, more than ISIL… Everyone is aware of that….

Then, off you go…. Back to your own problems…
