Wikileaks documents show growing concern in U.S. government over Gulen's Islamic movement

The war has not really begun yet. I am speaking of the shooting part of the war. The attempted takeover has been underway for a long time now.

Turkey is a devolutionary work-in-regress from secularism towards islam.

"In one sermon, he [Gulen] said:'...you must discard the thoughts and the feelings that I expressed here....."

Obviously someone failed to do so.

===============

So "[t]he latest documents from Wikileaks shows growing concern among U. S. officials over Fethullah Gulen’s attempts to create a New Islamic World and the “braining washing of students” that takes place at his charter schools within the United States and throughout the Muslim world."

This is good. What is bad is the usual tendency of the U.S. government to do nothing until pressed by events. If it was easy to do something about Gulen, it would have been done already, and if it is hard to do something about him it is likely to not be done until it is too late.

Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister calls for bombing of Israel

After assuring both Libyans and Turks that Turkey was not involved in airstrikes on Libya, Deputy Prime Minister Bülent Arınç, of Turkey, said, "We wish that the United Nations had made such resolutions and countries had taken action in the face of incidents in Gaza, Palestine and the other regions

This is exactly the problem I thought might arise from President Obama's endorsement of the trendy principle of "Responsibility to Protect". In yesterday's blog, "The Rise of Samantha Power and the risks for the American-Israel relationship," I speculated that the rationale Obama adopted to bomb Libya bore the risks of others adopting the same "principle" to justify punishing, if not bombing, Israel.

I wrote:

It is not hard to envision that this R2P concept, swirling through the United Nations and in international foreign policy circles, can one day be applied against Israel when that nation is forced to respond from attacks coming from the West Bank, Gaza, and Lebanon. Terrorists hide behind civilians; Israeli actions to defend themselves often happen in densely populated areas where civilian deaths are almost inevitable - despite all the precautions Israel takes to prevent them.

And noted Omri Ceren's excellent analysis of the history of this amorphous concept of the Responsibility to Protect and how it has already been used to criticize Israel. It seems that adversaries of Israel are eager to apply this concept to attack Israel, metaphorically and diplomatically, if not militarily (yet).

Barack Obama listened not to Congress but to the Arab League, the United Nations, and people like Samantha Power to launch military attacks. But he has also opened a Pandora's Box by endorsing the Responsibility to Protect as an international norm that can be used to justify attacks by those the so-called " international community" consider to be threatening civilians.

This is yet another irresponsible action by Barack Obama - one that bears with it the risk of being used to justify all sorts of mischief in the years ahead.

I also found it quite interesting that George Soros - a huge supporter of Barack Obama's campaign, funds efforts to promote Responsibility to Protect as an international norm. Samantha Power (who heavily influenced Obama to launch attacks on Libya) also is a supporter of the R2P movement and played a key role at a think tank (The International Crisis Group) heavily funded by George Soros.

The ties that bind.

Yea and the CIA has no clue and besides that he is an outstanding educator without hardly any formal education except from an Islamic school of indoctrination. Boy I would like to ask why do we even have a CIA or FBI anymore? We may as well do our own investigation or for that matter just send Robert a check for all the information he and Pamela inform us with.

How has he even been given exile is what I would like to know. Also why has he been able to operate in the US for so long without getting attention about his activities? I'm willing to bet that wheels were greased with Saudi oil money.

One bunker-buster and bye-bye dreams of the new Ottoman Empire.

I wouldn't put too much stock in the opinions that Gulen is "illiterate" as this tends to dismiss too lightly a man who is actually quite a formidable force to be reckoned with. He manifestly is not illiterate, in spite of lacking formal academic credentials, as can easily be seen by perusing his writings. (FWIW, Mohammad was illiterate, as compared to Jesus, who, as a Jew, would have been highly literate.)

Instead, Gulen is obviously a highly intelligent, albeit largely self-taught, man. So was Abraham Lincoln. Despite being literate, Gulen appears not to have evolved much beyond the Sufism he learned in the village of his youth. At heart he possesses the same fanatical obsession with spreading Islam, albeit using methods of stealth jihad, as does his more violent brethren, and is arguably more effective then they are because of the intelligence he brings to it. A dangerous man.

"In recent months, Turkish military leaders, and other critics of the AKP, have been arrested in the dead of night and whisked off to detention cells."

hmmmm, sounds like a purge going on....and no one seems to care...

I can see how 'worried' U.S. officials are when they allow an exiled terrorist to operate indoctrination facilities on American soil staffed by imported Turkish operatives and financed by U.S. taxpayers. Nice to know we're paying an islamic supremacist to train American jihadist traitors so they can infiltrate every institution in this country and eventually overthrow our government.

He was expelled from Turkey for trying to overthrow the government, requested asylum in the U.S., and in ten years time established a thriving brain washing, jihadist production industry masquerading as education. Did he draw straws to choose where he would seek asylum, or was America his target? Gee, it seems like the government would keep a watchful eye on people like this dangerous man but I guess they want to ensure that his 'Constitutional rights' aren't violated. To hell with ours.
