The End of Pluralism in the Middle East 262

Posted by: John Phoenix December 6, 2024   A truly seismic change in the Middle East appears to be happening very fast. At its heart is a devil’s bargain – Turkey and the Gulf States accept the annihilation of the Palestinian nation and creation of a Greater Israel, in return for the annihilation of the Shia minorities of Syria and Lebanon and the imposition of Salafism across the Eastern Arab world. This also spells the end for Lebanon and Syria’s Christian communities, as witness the tearing down of all Christmas decorations, the smashing of all alcohol and the forced imposition of the veil on women in Aleppo now. Yesterday US Warthog air-to-ground jets attacked and severely depleted reinforcements which were, at the invitation of the Syrian government, en route to S...

Nazi entity Is Top Suspect in Turkish Terror Attack

A "political, military, and security message" from Tel Aviv, sent with US approval? Kevin Barrett  Who was behind Wednesday’s terrorist attack on Turkey’s leading aerospace company? According to reports, at least five people were killed, and 22 others wounded, when two terrorists attacked the facility with explosives and gunfire before being “neutralized.” First clue: Turkish president Erdogan “was holding talks in Russia with Vladimir Putin at the time of the attack.” That suggests that one or more members of the “collective West”—in other words, the Zionist-occupied US empire—probably orchestrated the attack as a rebuke or warning to Turkey and Erdogan. And by targeting Turkey’s leading aerospace facility, someone was presumably sending a message of disapproval regardi...

Alternative history — I wish we could go back to the Ottoman Turkish Empire

EMRAH GUREL / AP The Palestinian Islamic resistance forces are waging a religious, cultural and social war against Israel and its western allies. This war is not simply “anticolonial” or “anti-apartheid.” It is not being fought under the banner of the lame international human rights regime, but rather under the banner of Islam, justice, mercy and sacrifice for the sake of God and for the sake of the whole Muslim nation as well as all the Arab nations and all peoples under oppression.The message of the unified Islamic forces led by Hamas, which is the strongest bloc m...

Strategic Shift in Military Alliances? Is Turkey Giving Up on Russia’s S-400 SAM System to Get Back Into the US-NATO F-35 Program?

Posted by: John Phoenix Global Research, October 01, 2024 During a press briefing after the 79th session of the UN General Assembly on September 28, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was asked to comment on reports about Turkey’s potential resale of the Russian-made S-400 SAM (surface-to-air missile) system. As there are no official reports about this issue, Lavrov initially said he had no comment, but added that “each of our weapon sales agreements includes a clause on the end user certificate”, pointing out that “handling a product supplied with a certificate that states the initial recipient as an end user would require the consent of the initial seller”. This was a clear message to Ankara that such resales without ...

Are the US and the Nazi entity Preparing a Coup de Main Against Erdogan?

Posted by: John Phoenix Global Research, Erdogan’s new geopolitical doctrine aims to stop gravitating into the Western orbit and become a regional power, which would imply that loyalty to Anglo-Jewish interests in the Middle East would be called into question. Erdogan, the Last Ottoman Sultan  Until now, Turkey has been polarized between a secular nationalism, typical of the more developed urban sectors, and a traditional Islamism in which the most disadvantaged rural population have taken refuge. Erdogan, the new “father of the fatherland” (Atatürk), would have as an unequivocal objective the implementation of the Islamic-Erdoganist state, which would mean the end of the secular state that in 1923 was established by the Father of Modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal, who bel...
