Turkey “has long held a reputation as a route for foreign ISIS fighters travelling to Syria and Iraq and has been accused of failing to prioritise threat posed by the jihadist organisation.”
And Erdogan recently said of the Taliban: “Turkey has nothing that contradicts their beliefs.”
“Turkey serving as vessel for radical Islamists – U.N. report,” Ahval, July 25, 2021:
Uyghur, Turkmen and central Asian migrants living in Turkey serve as a significant pool for membership in radical Islamist terrorist organisations, according to a report presented to the United Nations Security Council, Voice of America Turkish reported on Saturday.
Members of the Islamic State (ISIS) in Syria’s northern Idlib province see Turkey as an important gateway, according to the 22-page U.N. report detailing global terror activities in the first six-months of 2021.
Terrorist organisations such as ISIS and Al Qaeda are exerting efforts to include in their group people with Turkic nationalities living in Turkey, the report said, while pointing out that a number of ISIS militants have been arrested attempting to enter Turkey from its southern Hatay province gate.
Tukrey [sic] has long held a reputation as a route for foreign ISIS fighters travelling to Syria and Iraq and has been accused of failing to prioritise threat posed by the jihadist organisation, which is believed to have carried out 300 deaths in attacks in the country between 2014 and 2017.
The militants for years took advantage of Turkey’s porous southern border.
ISIS continues to rely on “logistical hubs” inside Turkey for its finances, the U.S. Treasury saidin [sic] a report in January. In April, Turkey granted citizenship to eight members of ISIS, whose assets have been seized over terror links, according to Ankara Gazetecisi news website….

Glad to see Turkey’s role finally being noticed, even if by the Useless Nations
In the meantime, 2 titbits about the greater Middle East:
Ghouta chemical attack: New study reveals involvement of Syrian rebels and not Assad, Obama wanted to bomb Syria in retaliation
TL:DR version: In 2013, it wasn’t Assad who violated Obama’s red line: it was Syrian sunni rebels who did it in order to implicate him. It would be interesting to see what the story was in 2017 and 2018, when there were chemical attacks in Syria in response to Trump announcing a withdrawal of US forces from there
Uyghur separatist group East Turkestan Islamic Movement now active in Afghanistan: UNSC Report
This is too good! China was worried by the US withdrawal and was planning to work w/ the Taliban, but now the Uyghur jihadists are getting active there, and Afghanistan is a good place from where to launch attacks on Qashqar and Hotan. It will be fun if somehow, the PLA gets mired in Afghanistan and can no longer focus on Tibet or Taiwan or the China Seas
Maybe there is something good about Joe’s foreign policy, after all!
spiro says
If anything good comes out of China Joe foreign policy. It will not be by design
Sleepy Joe has done more to screw things up in a short while than I though possible
ElderlyZionist says
The Chinese Peoples Liquidation Army has more soldiers than the whole population of Afghanistan, and they don’t mind spending lives to gain an objective. If the CCP wants Afghanistan, for rare earth metals or for a road to the Indian Ocean, they will have it. Uighur mujahidin operating from Afghanistan will make a convenient excuse.
Infidel says
Yeah, but how many of the PLA troops would Beijing be willing to lose in the process, when they have global ambitions?
James Lincoln says
ElderlyZionist,
If that happens, the Taliban will have met their match.
Chicoms are “not too worried” about human rights, etc., and Afghanistan sits on $1 trillion worth of minerals.
They could then treat the Taliban the same way that they are currently treating the Uighurs…
mortimer says
False flag operations are NORMATIVE Islam, rather than aberrations. Hitler did the same by placing German soldiers inside Poland dressed in Polish uniforms and then having them fire towards the German army. He used it as a pretext to invade Poland.
Obama surely knew all along that the chemical attack came from the Sunni opposition and he went along with their false flag operation to demonize Assad and justify attacking him.
TAQIYYA is the essential element of jihad. Because of the doctrine of TAQIYYA, we are justified to ask, ‘CAN ANY MUSLIM BE TRUSTED?’
Crusades Were Right says
With “allies” like “Turkey”, who needs enemies?
mortimer says
Erdogan is endorsing the caliphate … but which caliphate does he mean? More taqiyya.
Walter Sieruk says
SIS will scheme to obtain funds by “logistical hubs” to further finance it’s jihad of violence of killing for the advancement of Islam by either “By crook or crook”
The deadly disasters of ISIS jihad terrorism had ,for a time , appeared to have had subsided , much to the credit of the power and might the US armed forces which cause the Islamic “state” to lost much of the land it had obtained by its brutal ,cruel and murderous Islamic terrorism .
Nevertheless, ISIS might have a comeback, just like resurgence of a plague of as deadly infectious disease.
Therefore there some people who might stop and think and wonder then asked the question a very good question .Which is “Since ISIS had lost so much territory ,why haven’t the jihadist who make up ISIS just given up in their mad Islamic quest against the West and for the advancement of Islam ?
The answer to that question was provided in a speech by the ISIS spokesman, Abu Muhammad al Adnani, now dead, in this speech he had declared “True defeat is a loss of willpower and desire to fight…” he further explained “We would be defeated and you victorious only if you are able to remove the Qu ‘ran from Muslim hearts.” All this leads to a very important question: “Is the Qu ‘ran the Word of God or is it a fabrication of a man. Thus, is the Quran the truth or a fiction and a hoax ?” The jihadists, as those of ISIS use many verses from the Qu ‘ran as the main source of justification for their violence, mayhem and murders.
As found in For example, 2:191.. 4:47 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4 The answer is clearly given on pages 145 through 157 in THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey in which he wrote a section on the Qu ‘ran with its self-contradictions. Just two of the many he cited are the following “The Quran differs on whether a day is a thousand years or fifty thousand years in God’s sight’ and “Who was first to believe? Abraham or Moses [Sura 6:14 versus 7:143]? The above is inconsistent and illogical. Further, Morey wrote about “The fact that Judaism and Christianity broke up into different sects was used in the Qu‘ran to prove that they are not of God [Suras 30:20-32. 42:13, 14]. Yet Islam has broken up into many warring sects and therefore cannot be true if the Qu ‘ran is right.” Moreover, Morey in his book shows many more contradictions and absurdities in the Quran, there are and how Muhammad incorporated extra Biblical and Jewish folklore along with pre-Islamic Arabian myth and parts of Zoroastrian and Hindu stories into the Qu ‘ran.
Furthermore, the Muslims claim that “the Qu ‘ran is the direct, literal word of God unmodified in any way by the Prophet who uttered them at the bidding of God.” Nevertheless, in the book UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet and Eethi Caner has shown that the Qu’ran was modified in the following account on pages 45. “Muhammad felt the need to improve on the words of Allah, since he changed Allah’s wisdom for his own on several occasions. A hadith tells of the nonchalant emendations of Muhammad:’ On a number of occasions he [a scribe] had, with the Prophet’s consent changed the closing words of verses. For example, when the prophet had said ‘God is mighty and wise ‘ Adbollah b. Abi Sarh suggested writing down ‘Knowing and wise’ and the Prophet answered that there was no objection. Having observed a succession of changes of this type, Adbollah renounced Islam on the grounds that revelations, if from God could not be changed at the prompting of a scribe such as himself. After his apostasy he went to Mecca and joined the Qorayshites.’ Other writers reveal that later Muhammad and his people did go war with the Qorayshites and he personally killed Abdollah. Obviously Abdollah knew too much and Muhammad wanted Abdollah’s knowledge to die with him.”
In conclusion, the Qu ‘ran, which is the foundation for ISIS, is not only a fiction, it’s also a hoax.
It also should be added that since the Qu,ran has been proven to be a hoax ,as seen above ,this exposes the entire foundation of and for ISIS ,which is the Qu’ ran , then this means that the jihadists of ISIS have taken up a stand for a bad cause. To be more clear and specific a very bad cause.
The Bible instructs “Do not stand up for a bad cause.” Ecclesiastes 8:3. [N.I.V.]

Islamic State relying on ‘logistical hubs’ inside Turkey for its finances
…………….
That anyone is stilll pretending that Turkey is an ally of ours is absurd. They should have been kicked out of NATO long since.
