A Setup On The High Seas?
by Emanuel A. Winston, Middle East Analyst & Commentator
No journalist worth his or her salt should be surprised at the foaming-at-the-mouth
rage by Turkey’s Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan over the clash between Israel and
the flotilla of 6 ships, led by the Turkish ship, the Mavi Marmara. The “pirates” had
vigorously proclaimed that they would run the sea blockade by Israel into Hamas-controlled
Gaza.
In order for the ships to be loaded and to weigh anchors, they needed Erdogan’s
participation through his prior knowledge and approval.
Two more ships are currently sailing from Turkey and may very well be carrying Muslim
Terrorists and offensive weapons. Regardless, they must be intercepted and guided
peacefully to the Israeli port of Ashdod, (IF they don’t attack the official boarding parties).
Their cargoes can be properly inspected, unloaded and transshipped to Gaza.
However, IF these two ships are carrying weapons and fire on the intercepting Israeli
ships or boarding parties, they should NOT be sunk or allowed to deliberately sink
themselves. WHY? Because they may have been sent on a deliberate suicide mission,
as “Shaheeds” (martyrs) to gain world approval for their nefarious cause and crushing
disapproval for Israel acting in her own self-defense.
Here again PM Erdogan would have had prior knowledge of the intent of their mission.
The Muslim Arabs have long used civilians as “Human Shields” hoping to restrain
attackers. Or they have used dead civilians, intermixed with Terrorists as propaganda.
If you remember, they did so in the 2006 Lebanon War.
Many components to this saga are well-documented in the research machines (called “The Morgue” or GOOGLE) in all major news organizations and easily available (IF) journalists, news anchors and their editors – if they wanted – could call up the information in order to verify their contents.
Since the actual planning and story begins with the organizers, the IHH (Insani Yardim
Vakfi – short for the Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief –
an Islamic charity) originally assembled to provide support to Bosnian Muslims and later
believed to be cross-linked with al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood and a number of “global
jihad networks”.
The IHH was known by Interpol and all credible Intel Agencies in the Free West as
a ‘front’ which provided funding for the mix of Muslim Terrorists called the “Mujahadeen”
fighters for Islam), who came from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Yemen, Iran, Syria…as well as
those operating in Judea and Samaria.
The Turkish government launched a raid on the IHH-
Istanbul offices, where they found weapons, explosives and instructions for bomb-making.
The IHH denies any affiliation with Terror organizations. As to be expected, they
claim the IHH is “humanitarian” and “only raises charity”.
The World Media has loosely thrown around the words that Turkey was some sort of
Muslim friend and ally to Israel. However, the facts are well-known that, since Erdogan, a
dedicated Muslim, was elected PM in Turkey, that country’s drift was to change to an
Islamic-driven nation with growing alliance to Iran and Syria, to become active “Jihadists”
warriors for Islam) with their goal to rule the Middle East and beyond.
The New York Times (June 2nd) points out that much of the funds to support IHH
comes from the Turkish religious merchant class which brought Erdogan to power. This is
reminiscent of the Saudi princes who have been funding Terror groups all over the world for
many years. Remember that the 9/11 Terrorists were 15 Saudi and 4 Egyptian Muslims – and
that Osama Bin Laden was a member of a rich Saudi family from Yemeni extraction.
As for the relationship Turkey has/had with Israel, it ranged from the benign – when
Israeli tourists provided a steady source of funds to Turkey’s economy – to the business of
military goods Turkey could buy from Israel. For Turkey’s (former) secular military, Israel
proved to be an excellent source of military hardware and high tech. Israel upgraded
Turkey’s older tanks, provided the best UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) – including ‘smart
bombs’ and missiles. This did not make Turkey under PM Erdogan a friend or an ally. As
Turkey drew closer to Iran, Israel became reluctant to provide the technology which could
likely be transferred to Iran and/or Syria.
As part of the charade of May 31st, PM Erdogan screamed with performance level rage,
claiming that Israel had breached the International Laws of the sea. But, Erdogan forgot
a few key things. International jurists and experts on such matters are already pointing
out that proclaimed hostiles going to join and supply other hostiles such as Hamas and
Hezb’Allah, are in no way protected by International Laws.
You will see more of these opinions by such experts start to emerge, especially if
there is, indeed, an inquiry as demanded by the U.N. Security Council.
Let us recall for the record that Gaza is in the brutal hands of Hamas, an organization
recognized as a “Terrorist Organization” by America, most of the rest of the Free World
as well as Israel. Hamas is the proclaimed enemy of Israel to the point of actively working
to eliminate the Jewish Nation/State of Israel and Jews in totality.
I would remind you that Turkey frequently breached Iraq’s land border to attack the
Kurds whom they considered enemies of Turkey. Most of these cross-border attacks were
carried out without permission of Iraq. In fact, the U.S. turned a blind eye as did the U.N.,
because Turkey was considered a military asset to the West against an expanding and soon-
to-be Nuclear Iran. No doubt, Turkey will remain untouchable until they totally cross the
line as a committed Muslim country in partner with Iran.
As Erdogan was fully informed of the IHH’s intent to create an international incident,
one can easily conclude that the U.N.’s Security Council was complicit. They were clearly
knowledgeable well before the clash and prepared to go into emergency session to condemn
Israel (again).
Keep in mind that most of the members of the U.N. Security Council are virtually
‘owned’ by the Arab Muslim Bloc and, individually, have been some of the worst tyrants,
dictators and suppressors of Human Rights (especially of women) in the world.
All the nations, especially the Arab/Muslims and Europeans are demanding an
‘investigation’, assuming they will control the evidence and have judges such as Richard
Goldstone ruling the inquisition.
By all means, let us have an investigation, naming nations and groups who have
supported Terrorists and provided funds and weapons which mandated an embargo by Israel
on land and sea.
If the IHH has placed “useful idiot” civilians aboard these next ships, then it would
be best to cripple the ships’ propellers and tow them into Ashdod with no attempt to board
them at sea. Israel should NOT risk her own men – especially since the Terrorists aboard
the Mavi Marmara showed their murderous goals and were loaded with dangerous weapons.
The Israeli commandos were attacked as they boarded, beaten with iron bars, stabbed
with knives.
They said it felt like a “lynch”
