Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

As Islamic Republic of Pakistan escalates threats against India, Turkey building warships for Pakistanis

Oct 4, 2019 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

In mid-August, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan threatened to “teach Delhi a lesson” and vowed a “fight until the end against any Indian violations in disputed Kashmir.” Then later in the month, Khan escalated his threats of a nuclear war with India over Kashmir. Khan also recently said that the struggle against India over Kashmir was a jihad, and Pakistan would support Muslim Kashmiris even if the world did not. Yet Khan also stated that “it was wrong to ever equate Islam with terrorism,” and declared that “radical Islam” does not exist. He also decried the “‘Islamophobia’ faced by Muslims worldwide.” However, Khan has admitted that the Pakistani spy service and army trained al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.

It is a well-established fact that Pakistan is a state funder of jihad terror; this fact prompted the Trump administration to cancel $300,000,000 in aid to Pakistan last year. Pakistan also persecutes Christians in the name of Islam by means of its cruel blasphemy laws. Cases are frequently trumped up against Christians. This latest news about Turkish-Pakistani ties, and specifically about Turkey building warships for Pakistan, represents not only an escalated threat for India, but for the entire world, given the fact that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a formidable jihadist who has visions of a revived Ottoman empire.

“Turkey to build four MILGEM warships for Pakistan Navy, announces President Erdogan,” by Shravan Kumar reddy Apparigani, Herald Publicist, October 1, 2019:

Giving additional proof of strengthening ties between Turney [sic] and Pakistan, president Recep Tayyip Erdogan introduced on Sunday that his nation has began setting up 4 warships for Pakistan.

Talking at a ceremony to mark the start of the work on the warship, which has been named MILGEM, Erdogan stated: “I hope that Pakistan benefits from the naval warship that was being provided to it by Turkey.”

In accordance with stories, the warship will likely be 99 metres lengthy, may have a displacement capability of two,400 tonnes and can be capable of journey at a velocity of 29 nautical miles. The primary two corvettes will likely be manufactured in Turkey and the opposite two will likely be made in Pakistan by way of know-how switch.

The 4 warships will likely be made by way of a deal signed by the Pakistan Navy in July 2018 for the acquisition of 4 MILGEM-class ships from Turkey.

Together with Erdogan, Pakistan Navy Commander Admiral Zafar Mahmood Abbasi was additionally current on the ceremony on Sunday, the place the duo reduce the primary steel plate of the primary of the 4 MILGEM Ada class.

Erdogan additionally took the chance to fee a brand new ship into the Turkish Navy.

The ties between Pakistan and Turkey have been evidently robust over the previous week. Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan introduced a three way partnership between his nation, Turkey and Malaysia, by way of which a joint English channel will likely be launched….

    It is time for Turkey to be thrown out of NATO. It is certainly no longer an ally to any freedom loving nation and the Kemal Turkey is dead.

      “It is time for Turkey to be thrown out of NATO.”

      Agreed.

      Not to mention their very strong association with the Muslim Brotherhood…

      Below is a link to a recent – and very informative – video by John Guandolo discussing this association. It starts at about minute 50…

      While this particular move by Turkey hasn’t been an anti-NATO one per se, since it’s more targeted against India, it’s true that Turkey has ceased to have the same interests as NATO for at least 25 years now. And as I point out in separate posts below, they’re creating their own bloc and supporting their own stooges in an attempt to regain their Ottoman era leadership of the Muslim world.

      That’s a mission statement completely different from NATO, and it’s not remotely obvious how compatible that is

      Yes–Turkey should have been kicked out of NATO long since.

    Erdogan and khan representing the true face of islam..desperately trying to fool people into thinking islam is a religion of “peace”.

    Both followers of al LAH{“the BEST of deceivers” k3:54} the false pagan Arab god of islam,the sunnah of muhammed the failed prophet and the commandment-of-God violating teachings of{the book of baal}the koran.

    Men you can trust?Of course not..it’s like two dodgy salesmen trying to sell you a square tire hoping you won’t notice it isn’t round.

    German soccer fans are not allowed to enter a Turkish soccer stadium because there are Christian symbols in the emblem of their soccer club.

    Policemen with machine guns, water cannons at the roadside – Borussia Mönchengladbach fans were horrified when they arrived at the Basaksehir stadium. Bad-tempered and aggressive, the policemen welcomed the 1400 soccer fans to the Europa League match in Istanbul.What happened at the entrance was regarded by many as pure harassment. Especially ridiculous: flags with the Mönchengladbach city coat of arms were not allowed at the stadium. It shows the Holy Vitus – forbidden because it is a Christian symbol, according to the police.On Friday even Mönchengladbach’s Lord Mayor Hans Wilhelm Reiners intervened. What happened was “unacceptable”. He demanded “that UEFA, as the organiser of the Euro League, should not accept this unchallenged and that the host club should also distance itself from such action”. Meanwhile, UEFA wants to await the official match report. Gladbach’s managing director, Stephan Schippers, was also extremely annoyed by the way they treated the German fans: “The behaviour towards our fans was unimaginably disrespectful.”His manager Max Eberl even used the term “police dictatorship”. “It saddens me that we have such conditions in Europe in 2019,” he said. “Our fans wanted to celebrate peacefully,” And then they are harassed right from the start, have to travel by bus and are not allowed to move to the stadium like normal people.”

    In the meantime, India has been taking notice – Turkey stands to lose business w/ India.

    Also, India has been reacting to Malaysia and Turkey ganging up w/ Pakistan against India

      Yes–Muslims have indeed been ganging up on India. I hope the West has taken notice. I know Trump has:

        India has been battling Pak based Jihadist terror for a while now, but never taken action against any Muslim country other than Pakistan. That’s starting to change, and hopefully, it’s the start of a trend.

        First, on Malaysia, it’s not just that India is annoyed at Mahathir Mohammed’s UN speech. In case one missed it, that Islamic troll preacher Zakir Naik, who previously lived in India during previous regimes, now lives in Malaysia after India revoked his passport and put out an international criminal warrant after him. Both countries have been caught in a deadlock, w/ India wanting Naik extradited, and Malaysia denying that India even asked, rather than denying the request itself. This even as Malaysia has banned his preachings, just like India, Bangladesh, UK and Canada.

        Then on Turkey – my first link above shows that India is responding to Turkish statements by acts, like putting their business deals w/ Turkey in jeopardy. I foresee India’s relations w/ both these countries – Malaysia and Turkey – going into a tailspin, as they either warm up to Pakistan by supporting the Kashmir jihad, or they continue to harangue India on issues like Zakir Naik.

        Essentially, the decades of appeasement of Muslim countries, never mind just Indian Muslims, seems to be over. I think the Arab countries like Saudi Arabia and Emirates recognize this, and don’t wanna lose India the way Turkey doesn’t mind

    Like I mentioned in other Turkey related stories recently, Turkey is trying to gain leadership of the Muslim world. They’re skipping the countries they know ain’t gonna accept that – namely the Arab countries and Iran – and reaching for alternatives. First, they’ve been rounding up the Turkic stans, and are well on their way to increasing their influence via the Turkic council. Then they have been supporting fringe Sunni groups in the Middle East that are not supported by the Saudis or mainstream Arab Muslim leaders, such as the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas – and in the process, created an alliance w/ Qatar. Finally, they are reaching out to other isolated Jihadist countries like Pakistan and making them their allies. In Pakistan’s case, Turkey might as well consider them a Turkic country, given that Pakistan considers the Mughal empire and its predecessor sultanates as a part of their national heritage, and those were largely Turkic, w/ some Pashtun interruptions in b/w.

    So as a result, we now have 3 Islamic blocs, if you will. There’s the Saudi led one, which is Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrein and maybe Kuwait and Emirates (Kuwait has been trying to play mediator b/w Riyadh and Doha, while Emirates has been supporting a third side in the civil war in Yemen).

    Then there is Iran, and while no country other than Syria is their ally, they do have Shia militia stooges all over the place – the Mahdi Army in Iraq, the Houthis in Yemen, Hizbullah in Lebanon, Hizb e Wahdat in Afghanistan and other Shia dissident parties in Arab countries, particularly Bahrein and Saudi Arabia.

    And now there’s Turkey. First, they’ve backed their Turkic stooges in Iraq and Syria in the civil wars there, and then spread that support to Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood. Then they created the Turkic council to expand their cultural influence in the Trans Caspian region, and now they’ve added Pakistan and Malaysia to their list of allies. Pretty impressive, given that Pakistan is the 2nd biggest Muslim country on earth, and Malaysia ain’t that puny either. If Indonesia ever gets a government like Malaysia, Turkey can win them over as well.

    It will be a fascinating contest

      Some very good points you made. The Muslim Brotherhood has de facto become “the turkish party” inside Arab politics. If Morsi was still in power, Egypt and Turkey would now be BFs. The Muslim Bros love Erdogan and Erdogan loves the Bros.
      Besides the stans of Cental Asia there’s also Azerbaijan on this side of the Caspian with which Turkey maintains very close ties (Azeris are seen as Shia Turks basically). Turkey has also gained considerable influence in some Balkan countries through Islam and through turkish/muslim minorities there and also through economic penetration in recent years. Turkey has even established military bases in Somalia and Sudan (as well as in Qatar and more recently in Albania) in its effort to control strategic choke-points in the Red Sea and elsewhere.

      • Infidel says

        Oct 5, 2019 at 11:14 am

        Thanks for the data on Sudan and Somalia – I hadn’t even considered them.

        I actually think of Azerbaijan as well when I think of the stans, and have described it as their Trans-Caspian empire (i.e. empire on both sides of the lake). As we noted in the Kosovo thread, they are influential in Bosnia, Albania and Kosovo, which all owe their Islamic heritage to the Ottomans. Only thing about Azerbaijan – I see it as a potential battlefield b/w Iran and Turkey. Azeris are very much seen as a part of Iranian heritage – the Safavids, who converted Iran from a Sunni to a Shia country, were Azeris and their first capital was Tabriz. And a lot of senior Iranian leaders, like Ahmadinejad, are Azeri. While Azerbaijan as a country has been happy to ally w/ Turkey, I doubt that that’ll be the story as Turkey’s Islamic plans become more visible, when it’ll be obvious to them that as Shi’ites, they could potentially be treated as badly as the Armenians and Kurds.

        But Pakistan and Malaysia are the biggest political coups I’ve seen from Erdogan. In fact, now, I wouldn’t be surprised if Iran tries to improve ties w/ Pakistan – both to preclude them from supporting the Saudis w/ their nukes, and also since they’ve lost India as a customer due to the sanctions. Although it may be more tricky if the persecution of Shi’ites in Pakistan continues

    given the fact that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a formidable jihadist who has visions of a revived Ottoman empire.

    I almost wish him to succeed so I could see it destroyed, for good, by Kurdish-like rebellions all over. The Ottoman empire was rife with them, and this is no longer an era when farmers and shepherds were easy prey to career military forces…

    • Infidel says

      Oct 5, 2019 at 11:17 am

      Forget WWII or Cold War – you’ll have a 3-way internecine Muslim war in Asia b/w the Arabs (Saudi led), Iran (leading all Shi’ites) and Turkey, which will be fascinating to watch. If only non Muslim countries like India, Israel, Russia et al can stay on the sidelines

    Kick violent war aggressor Turkey out of NATO immediately! It’s despicable that Turkey was made a NATO member. Turkey is a huge threat to Christian Europe. End Turkey’s ILLEGAL occupation of Christian Cyprus. Send in the military. Stop submitting to Islam. Stop allowing Muslims to conquer our Christian nations.

    Every year, Britain gives enormous sums of money to Pakistan. This must end immediately. British taxpayer money clearly goes to help make war against good, decent India. What a despicable Crime against our brothers and sisters in India.

    As soon as Muslims step on British soil, they’re treated like royalty and immediately given food, clothes, money, medical care, legal aid, housing and permanent welfare.

    Whilst many thousands of homeless and hungry non Muslims live desperate lives on the street. Denied help because they’re NON Muslim whites. They would thank God with all their heart if they were given even one nutritious meal.

    Most of the Muslims that traitor British leaders colonized Britain with are from Pakistan. For many decades, EVIL British authorities have allowed highly organized Pakistani Muslim Sex Slaver gangs to GANG RAPE, TORTURE, and Force into Prostitution and SEX SLAVERY one million non Muslim British children.

    Britain has been turned into a NATION of CHILD SEX SLAVES by Muslim God haters.

    END the MUSLIM RAPE WAR Against British children, you Monsters.
