2019-10-15 The Grand Turk
Why isn’t the American media covering Turkish President Erdogan’s ties to ISIS
From three weeks ago, but still interesting.
[NYPost] Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
has pitched his tent at New York’s glitzy Peninsula Hotel this week, where he will be dining (but not wining) American Moslem leaders on the sidelines of UN meetings.

During his 2017 New York visit, Erdogan met with then-freshman U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar

(D-MN). This past July, state-run media chiefs called on Turks around the world to donate to her re-election campaign, which is illegal if they are not U.S. citizens or green-card holders.

But what should disturb Americans most about Erdogan is not his efforts to influence Congress, his abysmal record as a jailer of journalists, his genocidal war against the Kurds, or even the $100 million mosque he has constructed in Lanham, Maryland.

It’s Erdogan’s commitment to global jihad, and specifically, to ISIS

terrorists. Since 2012, the Ottoman Turkish intelligence service, MIT, under Erdogan’s direction, has been providing resources and material assistance to ISIS, while Ottoman Turkish Customs officials turned a blind eye to ISIS recruits flowing across The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

’s borders into Syria and Iraq.

Scores of ISIS fighters captured by pro-U.S. Kurdish forces in northern Syria showed Ottoman Turkish exit stamps on their passports, and otherwise boasted of the direct assistance they had received from Ottoman Turkish authorities.

"Ottoman Turkish intelligence knows everything," one captured ISIS fighter told his Kurdish captors recently.

Many former ISIS fighters have now joined the Ottoman Turkish-backed forces that have occupied the Syrian Kurdish city of Afrin, where they have engaged in ethnic cleansing.
That would be the Free Syrian Army (FSA), of course, also known as the Syrian National Army (SNA).
Two Ottoman Turkish intelligence officers, captured by Kurdish guerilla fighters in northern Iraq in 2017, provided insider accounts of Ottoman Turkish government assistance to ISIS and other jihadi groups operating in Syria and Iraq.

Turkey’s assistance to ISIS starts right at the top. In 2016, Wikileaks published an archive of 58,000 emails documenting the involvement of Erdogan’s son-in-law, Berat Albayrak, in helping ISIS market oil stolen from Syria and Iraq.

Until the publication of the emails, Albayrak had denied any involvement in the illicit oil trade.

Sumeyye Erdogan, daughter of the Ottoman Turkish president, reportedly set up an entire medical corps, including a hospital to treat maimed ISIS fighters in Sanlurfa, a city in Southeastern Turkey close to the Syrian border.

ISIS evacuated severely maimed fighters across the border into Sanliurfa in Ottoman Turkish army trucks without undergoing Customs inspection.

The evidence of Erdogan’s direct, personal and institutional support for ISIS and related jihadi groups is so extensive, the wonder is why the American media is not paying more attention to it.

This week a new group, the Turkey-ISIS Research Project, is sponsoring bus-billboards to roam the Big Apple. The message is clear: "Erdogan, the Godfather of Jihadist Terrorists, is Not Welcome in the United States."
