“Three days ago, missiles, night vision binoculars, thermal cameras and weapons were taken to the Kurdish forces in the region. By who? The U.S. and Israel! These weapons were also distributed to Kirkuk, Mosul, Arbil and other areas. Soon new missiles and heavy weapons will arrive and be distributed as well.”

“Intense concentration has started in North Iraq. Foreign troops are being deployed to the Turkish border. A few days ago, foreign troops were deployed to the Altıntepe area of Şırnak. Not on the border, but on the Turkish side. In short, on the Turkish side. (Before the U.S. war crafts violate the Turkish airspace.) What is the reason for this concentration?”

“The mobilization in North Iraq, the deployment of heavy weaponry, the transfer of missiles, missile launchers, military base constructions, U.S. troops deployed to the Turkish border, measurements and research done on the border area.... Can these be preparations to hinder Turkey from intervening in the region?”

“What are we supposed to think when Turkey's two allies land their troops by helicopter on the Turkish border and make measurements, determine the coordinates of some of the areas, clarify aim dots from satellite and transfer this information to their countries?”

“U.S. troops were air landed close to Zapsuyu by helicopters the night before. Field measurements are made in the area. Not only in the Iraq-Turkey border. What is the meaning of field measurements and land sweeping made by the U.S and Israel from Iraq to the Armenian border?”

Turkey's border areas and North Iraq are being fortified with missiles. Why are heavy arms dispatched to the area? Why are state of art technology satellites stationed in the area with the support of the U.S. and Israel? Is someone masterminding a war between the Turks and the Kurds?”

“Not only tanks but missiles are positioned in the area. Heavy weapons are provided by the U.S. and Israel. So what's going to happen with Israel's missile stocks, arsenal and military bases?”

(These notes were published in this column on 04-07-2007.)

The missile and weapons arsenal and the arms dispatchment made by Israel didn't attract anyone's attention. The dispatchments still continue, arsenals are being expanded, and the location coordinates of Turkish troops are being reported to groups in the area by Israel. Let's not even discuss the weapons and explosives deployed to inner Turkey by the very same circles. What kind of a dispatchment was there this month and in the second half of July? Does anyone know, or have an answer? Why are these shipments happening and whom are they intended to be used against? And who really are those, that are not caught up between Turkey and the Kurds but are investing instead?

If these allegations are proved, what will the U.S. and Israel say to Turkey? How will they explain cooperating against their ally, with an organization they identify as terrorism?

“After this article, on the 21st of October, 12 soldiers were martyred during the Dağlıca attack. The participation of some foreign components was confirmed. After days of preparation and with the participation of 600 PKK terrorists, Turkey experienced such an incident. Was this only a PKK attack? In my opinion, it wasn't. Before the attack, for months concentration was being carried out on the border. Even missile launchers were assembled. With information transferred from Ankara, elements belonging to Turkey were ambushed in Northern Iraq.”

“ It is the sixth anniversary of September 11. Ankara avoids an attack at the last minute. A preparation that would have made “Turkey's September 11 ” is prevented. Hundreds of kilos of explosives are contained. The aim of those who put the explosives there was to spread fear. Most importantly, it meant “be careful, tread lightly.”

“Those who prepared this are unknown. The prime minister is taken from his location to somewhere else, people and institutions are protected with extraordinary security measures. Who is the target? Turkey? Or is it to align Turkey in a terror scenario that would be felt in the region? During the same days, mines and bombs that are rigged to explode are located throughout Turkey. Harvesting power by way of terror, harvesting internal and external political maneuvers through terror, harvesting regional projects through terror...”

It was said that “The explosives point to PKK, the sacks point to Iraq.” Certainly it was. Could the explosives that were brought in from Iraq and stocked throughout Turkey ever be traced? Or who knows any of this? Who did what kind of preparations, where?”

“Which cities were the explosives sent to other than Ankara? Who, and for what were the weapons' storage houses prepared for?”

“What kind of cooperation are the military, diplomats , people from politics and business circles of Turkey in with the U.S. and Israel? What kind of a link is there between certain people that go to Israel very often and the attacks, bombings and assassination scenarios happening in Turkey? Is it these people who traffic the explosives and weapons from North Iraq to Turkey? And which attacks were these explosives and weapons used in?”

“Shipments were made to many cities in Anatolia. Why doesn't anyone object?”

“Who and what are some of Turkey's elements, that ensure security for weapons, explosives and missile dispatchments, working for?”

“For what reason are the C-4s and weapons, that came in from North Iraq to Silopi and went on to Afyon, Ankara, Istanbul and many other cities, stocked? Where are the Stinger missiles that were sent to these cities going to be used?”

“ How many of the missiles, close combat weapons, anti-tank mines, jamb mines, thermal cameras, night vision binoculars, A-3, A-4 and C-4s came into this country? Who took 750 kilograms of C-4 to Ankara in one load, and where was it stored?”

“We had asked all these questions then. We didn't get any answers. We knew we wouldn't. We just wanted to draw the attention of the public. Why didn't we ask how foreign intelligence helped their Turkish partners dispatch and secure these explosives in there whereabouts? Where we able to solve the connection between these dispatchments, internal conflicts and assassinations?”

(These notes too were published in this corner on 08-04-2008..)

Reports that PKK has stored weapons in cities are published six years after these articles, after the Reconciliation Process was punctured, after tutelage supporters arose following the June7 elections and resurrected terrorism. The reports read that 80 thousand weapons have been stocked in cities and counties in the South East for “city wars”. How can one explain why those who set the Thames on fire for a few hand grenades during the Ergenekon operations are silent about the ongoing weapons dispatchment throughout Turkey (even the western cities)?

Why wait for six years to draw attention to cities like Istanbul and Ankara being armed too (not just eastern Turkey cities)!

Back then I was asking “What kind of a partnership are some of Turkey's military, diplomats, politicians and businessmen in with the U.S. and Israeli intelligence, and why is it focused on North Iraq? I had difficulties understanding this.

Today, after seeing people openly supporting terrorism and the PKK and noticing those who have abruptly waged a war on Turkey via the media, my struggle to understand all this has transformed into anger!
