On May 22nd, Turkey will have a new Prime Minister instead of the current leader of the Cabinet of Ministers — Ahmet Davutoglu. On May 5, 2016 he was forced to resign his post as a head of the ruling Justice and Development Party under pressure from Recep Tayyip Erdogan. As a result, he steps down as Turkish Prime Minister.
About the reasons for Davutoglu’s resignation, any doubts have disappeared after Erdogan’s words that “Davutoglu should not forget how he got to his post”. It is no secret that Erdogan does not tolerate independent and liberal politicians in his environment such as Davutoglu. Recently, the Prime Minister, who is by the way one of the ideologists of “Turkey’s rebirth as a global power”, has begun to take part in international affairs. That aroused Erdogan’s jealousy who considers geopolitics and international relations his main priorities. Erdogan does not need allies; he needs puppets to use them and to rule with their help.
In these voluntaristic decisions Erdogan looks like “Ottoman Hitler” – the authoritarian ruler who does not tolerate different opinions, is ruthless to national minorities and very aggressive to external wars.
So, Erdogan‘s attitude towards national minorities, whether the Kurds or the Armenians, leaves much to be desired and looks like genocide. Erdogan does not admit the genocide in the Ottoman Empire against the Armenian people in 1915 (what the whole world already knows), but continues “glorious” traditions of his predecessors.
The active phase of the civil war with the Kurds lasts already about one year. The cities in the east and south of the country are exposed to total mop up. There are recent examples of such clashes and police-military operations in the town of Cizre and other places of compact residence of the Kurds in Turkey. Moreover, this campaign results in an all-out war considering the fact that the number of the Kurds in the country exceeds 20 million people. Thousands of the Kurds die. That is why we observe a lot of terror acts in Turkish cities. The conflict is at its zenith.
Armenian—Turkish relations are developing rather dramatically, despite the fact that Armenia is not a part of the Turkish state. Nagorno – Karabakh is not just one big headache for the OSCE “Minsk group” but also a chance for Turkey to put pressure on their enemy, (the Armenians) and to create problems for Russia. It is no coincidence that Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev regularly take a consultation of his “elder Turkic brother” Erdogan who will get a lot of benefit from a new war on the borders of Russia.
The level of hypocrisy in foreign policy of Ankara is not incomparable to Berlin during Hitler’s reign. So, in the mid-2000s, Erdogan said that Syria and Assad were “close friends” of Turkey and were ready to establish a free trade area. But then, almost overnight, Assad in the eyes of Ankara “has made” outstanding and acrobatic somersault to get access to Syria oil reserves and became “an implacable enemy,” a tyrant and “a fighter with democracy”.
The same thing happened in the relations with Russia. At first, it was a “great economic partner”, and then Turkey began to shoot down Russian gunships, to sponsor radicals of Crimean Tatars for a new war in Donbass.
Not surprisingly, if Erdogan as by the way still acting Prime Minister Davutoglu “predicted” abandon the idea of Alliance with the United States in favor of the revival of a new Ottoman Empire in the Middle East.
But the most hypocritical thing is the fight against “Islamic state” that sells oil to Erdogan and lives on this money. On words, the Turkish President is “the most principled fighter” with Islamism in Syria, he allegedly expended some efforts to kill thousands of militants (it is a pity but nobody can confirm that, especially the Syrian Kurds fighting with the Islamic state in Syria and killed by the Turkish fire).
And the parallels do not stop. Erdogan is merciless to his surroundings. Previously, he jailed almost all the generals suspected of the coup. Two years ago, he started purging security services, police, armed forces and his party to identify real and alleged supporters of Islamic preacher Fethullah Gulen, who is living in the United States. This Turkish “Trotsky” is like a thorn in Erdogan’s flesh. For more than 10 years Erdogan has been unsuccessfully trying to exchange him but the United States needs Islamist to blackmail the President. So, Davutoglu is the last but not the least victim of Erdogan’s purges.
One more important parallel is Erdogan‘s willingness to violate the territorial integrity of former partners in favor of his interests and desire to capture near-by territory. The same thing happened with Iraqi Kurdistan where Turkish troops feel at home. They do not need the approval of Baghdad to invade there to catch some rebels with the PKK.
The same was with Northern Iraq‘s Mosul area, which Erdogan is going to grab first and not to give the Kurds or the Iraqis themselves to establish control over these oil—rich areas (well, is not it the sample of the Czech Sudetenland in 1938!?)
Only Russian troops in Latakia and Tartus that can give more serious resistance than the Syrian Arab Army to prevent Turkey from aggression against Syria.
If the EU and the US do not fathom the severity of the situation in Turkey, the great war in the Middle East cannot be avoided.
Actually from your description, I see much more Stalin that Hitler. It was Stalin who decimate his own army before the war. Read Soljenitsyne and you will see how bad was Stalin with the Russian and many others in the Soviet-Union. Your comparaison to Hitler fits the general opinion. your last few words have been removed. Stop antagonising the author. Mod on Duty.
You might have forgotten Hitler’s turning on his supporters in the so called Rohm and SA purges.
Turning on your own is standard operating procedure for socialists. Communists are even more thorough than that. There the process is to turn on anyone who potentially might represent a threat!

Certainly looks like ‘Uncle Genghis’ is back in town.
Never quite understood why the Ottoman Turks were so loathed and despised at the beginning of the 20th century. Do now. Clearly reverting back to type.
It seems that the International Bankers willingly support these “dictators” when they are useful to them, but when their usefulness is exhausted, or the dictators fail in their assigned role, they stab their former proxies in the back.
Such as what they did to Hitler (who was only to attack the Soviet Union, but who, according to Russian historian Suvorov was manipulated by Stalin into getting into a war with the western allies and therefore had to be destroyed even if it meant aligning with Stalin), Saddam Hussein who as proxy of the western bankers was to destroy Iran, and when he failed the bankers then turned on him, and now Erdogan who was to destroy Syria, but having failed now must be destroyed.
All the crimes of these “dictators” are very real, but acceptable and overlooked as long as they carry out their assigned tasks, but then when they fail, their “evil deeds” as “dictators” become the “righteous cause” for overthrowing them.
Another example is Osama Bin Laden, righteous “freedom fighter” when fighting against the Soviets in Afghanistan, and “evil terrorist” when he objects to western interference.

“All the crimes of these “dictators” are very real, but acceptable and overlooked as long as they carry out their assigned tasks, but then when they fail, their “evil deeds” as “dictators” become the “righteous cause” for overthrowing them.”
They don’t have to fail. Outlasting their “usefulness” can lead to their doom. Someone “better” coming along may cause same result.
Siotu
(To use American slang) Yeah, that too. (Or, yes I agree.)
Dont worry, nationalists are rising all over W.Europe, the old rotten culturalmarxist parties that has dominated the western world had led it to ruin is being displaced everywhere, UKIP in UK, FN in France, SD in Sweden, PVV in Netherlands, Afd in Germany and so on.
Why within a month UK might have left EU and within 2 years Marine Le Pen could be the leader of France, and pretty much all western nationalists are pro-Russian or at worse, neutral. Which still is better then the culturalmarxist which always is virulently anti-Russian.
In a few years, we will see a nationalist west, allied with Russia, dismembering Turkey between various factions, Greeks, Russians, Kurds, whoever wants a piece.
UK will never allowed to leave EU
Turkey is being destabilized by the Empire/NATO terrorists currently. With dismemberment the end result. There is no need to wait for a nationalist west, allied with Russia to accomplish the task.
Missing from this analysis and attempt to equate Erdogan and Turkey with Hitler and Nazi Germany is the identity of the key enabling state–The Outlaw US Empire. Clearly, Erdogan is a tool of the Empire, but missing are the reasons why and future direction the relationship might take.
And whose arm is up the puppet USA’s butt?
The AngloZionist Israeli arm of course.
Go read “the Controversy of Zion”, by Douglas Reed. It explains everything happening now, in spite of being written in the early 1950’s.
The Zionists want total chaos among their enemies, and their enemies are everyone who is not themselves.
Americanism and Zionism are essentially two heads of the same monster.
To suggest that the USA is a “puppet” of the Zionists (or vice versa) is disingenuous and essentially excuses the crimes of one head for that of the other head.
“Erdoğan effendi” knows his dear people very well:
https://lenta.ru/news/2016/05/20/skrepy/ , 18:19, 20 May 2016:
The Turks reacted positively to the destruction of the Russian Su-24
The people of Turkey in general positively reacted to the destruction of the Russian bomber Su-24 near the Syrian-Turkish border. So reported on Friday 20 May the prominent Turkish paper Hürriyet Daily News.
According to the publication, the survey was conducted by Kadir Has University. According to its data, 58.2% of the respondents considered shooting the aircraft and its destruction a good thing, while only 41.8% rated it negatively. Among those approving the destruction, over half said that it proves that Turkey is influential. …
Erdogan “Hitler” or not … but Turks are Turks…
Even Erdogan himself knows that he won’t last.
“Even Erdogan himself knows that he won’t last.”
In each sense – don’t we all :?
Everything the western media says about Putin it actually true….
…. about Erdogan.
Historically speaking, duplicity and cruelty of Ottoman empire was about equal to that of British Empire. Ask Greeks and Serbs, who often were on the receiving end of both. Russians too.
Things changed for better under Ataturk, when Turkey was reduced geographically, and the similar can be said for Britain after 1950’s, when it was forced to free most of its colonies.
As soon as both begun having wet dreams of resurrecting their past glories, fortified by NATO shooting some powerful military narcotics through their governmental veins, they start having murderous, even suicidal delusions. Likely outcome is further contraction of their power and possibly territories.

Hungary: US Wants to Fill Europe With Muslim Migrants
President Barack Obama and the United States favor illegal migration in Europe because they want to fill it up with Muslims, the chief of staff of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said Thursday.
Janos Lazar…described Hungarian-born American financier George Soros as a standard-bearer for Obama’s immigration policies for Europe and said “certain American groups” want Europe to be “diluted … so Europe and America can cooperate without restraint.”

Haha, can’t be easy to be a US bootlicker as the Pindos not only spit on but wantonly trash the much revered European values including, most notably, Islamophobia! Erdogan, like Hitler before him, knows how to exploit the rotten ripe Euro-trash to the utmost. Greece and Bulgaria should be really proud of themselves (not).

True. But all that is pure theater. The Polish elite is 100% owned by the US. Just as with anyone working for a “boss” they might have disagreements from time to time with “the boss”. But when all is said and done. When the boss gives an order,they obey it. Its just that simple throughout NATO Europe,not just Poland. We “hear” about meaningless disagreements with Washington all the time. And the media makes a “mountain out of a molehill” over them for the sake of “drama” and to stir the feeling in those countries that they are “democratic and free”. And then quietly a few weeks later they all obey. Whenever I hear of those “disagreements” I smile a sarcastic smile to myself. And say in my best “Ronald Reagun” voice,”there you go again”.
The danger to our side is that we begin to believe that propaganda is true,and fool ourselves into thinking they will split from the US control.Like a jealous “pimp” Uncle Sam will beat and kill any of his “women” that even slide a glance over Putin’s way. That he lets them talk to Putin (trade) is considered by him as a concession to be withdrawn if needed (hence the sanctions). While Uncle Sam himself is always open to increasing his “harem” with young girls whenever there “mother (mother Russia)” isn’t watching close.enough Starting with miss Ukraine,and interested in miss Syria,Iran,Georgia,Moldova,Azerbaijan,Turkmenistan,and the rest of the “stans” .He also has his eye on”miss” Belarus,and maybe “mother” Russia herself. Though he wants her to lose some “weight” first and be dismembered into easier to handle smaller states.
The foolishness of our side thinking we can deal with someone like that “bad Uncle”.And him keep his word,just astounds me.I can’t recall a single agreement in history (that didn’t serve their interests) that the US has honored. And we thinking we can deal honorably with him now brings out that Reagan smile again “here you go again”.

“Kaczynski creep is now His Masters’ most authentic Polish joke.”
Right you are!
I suppose I “should not” be laughing, but I still am, and heartily, recalling the account of the flight of that Polish plane carrying Kaczynski’s idiot twin brother and a bunch of Polish generals, heading to that bogus commemoration of “Katyn Forest massacre”. Who all jammed into the plane’s cockpit, drinking vodka and “instructing” the pilot exactly “what to do”… And the plane crashed, of course, what else would you expect… Couldn’t then help but think of that Polish joke, “how many Poles are requited to screw in one light-bulb?” (… and then the one ’bout Polish Academy of Science launching a manned solar probe in night, so the Polish astronauts wouldn’t burn ;-))…
You’re completely right – the cockpit protocol proved beyond doubt that prior to landing exactly 94 persons entered the cockpit of Kaczynski’s plane and everyone yelled orders to the pilots, 94 different ones, which they tried to follow all at once – „And the plane crashed, of course, what else would you expect…“, as you wisely concluded.
However, few people know that the *only* reason why a Pole, Tusk, has been made Europe‘s Erdogan, or, uh, pilot is to introduce this Polish fly-by-vodka system into Brussel‘s cockpit so that the European Union must crash the same way as Kaczynski‘s Tupolev. It‘s already too late to pull up. Come on, join us.
Excellent piece! Erdogan’s propaganda machine is much like Hitler’s. The outright lies are consistent and more frequent. He calls an attack on Kurdish towns and cities an “anti terrorist operation.” It is nothing of the sort and has similarities to the fascist Kiev junta’s ATO against the people of Donbass. He says he’s the only true opponent of ISIS when, in fact, he’s the great enabler. You could see this coming when Erdogan would consistently misrepresent phone conversations/meetings with Obama and Putin.
The ultimate goal of the Erdogan AKP gang is to keep the Sultan out of jail. The dreadful AKP leadership, save a few, go right along with all of this. What a sick crew. The worst of them is Gul, who presents the kind face of the Hitlerian regime but never quite gets around to speaking out. What a total wimp he is.
So sorry for the people of Turkey. They do not deserve this but what they will get is going to be devastating.
According to Sky News, British PM Cameron shattered any hopes of Turkey joining EU. He told the ITV’s Preston on Sunday:
“They applied in 1987. At the current rate of progress they will probably get round to joining in about the year 3000 according to the latest forecasts.”
However, the same article reminds that in 2010 Cameron told Turkey that he would “remain your strongest possible advocate for EU membership and for greater influence at the top table of European diplomacy”. It also reports UKIP leader Nigel Farage’s comment: “Veto? Mr. Cameron has said he wants to pave the road from Ankara to Brussels.”
http://news.sky.com/story/1700271/foreign-crooks-warning-triggers-eu-veto-row
Cameron is a “posterboy” for lying. He only said that because the “leave” camp is saying Turkey would be in the EU in less than 8 years. And stats show a million Turks will come to the UK. When the UK remains in the EU (which I have little doubt about,the fix is in). And if Turkey does join within 8 years as believed. A mob of British citizens needs to storm Cameron’s house (he won’t be PM then), And lynch him to the nearest lamppost. Will they(?),no of course not. The “PC” of today has emasculated the Europeans,and punishment of the political elite isn’t a “European value” anymore.Certainly one more reason the Ukrainian oligarchs wanted so badly to join the EU. They could steal and plunder their people forever without fear of any personal retribution ,as followers of “European values”. For them ,”whats not to like” about that..
Rather than hitler, a comparison used so often for propagandistic puroses that it is now pretty much a meaningless exercise, comparing erdogan with netanyahu would be a better choice. IE: A zionazi puppet with adolescent dreams of grandeur.
“A zionazi puppet with adolescent dreams of grandeur.”
Well, suchlike miscreants seem to be in virtual possession of the Offal Office with no end in sight. Erdogan, for all his nastiness and degeneracy, would never convince as POTUS. Just too intelligent to impress the average Pindo.
The level of hypocrisy in foreign policy of Ankara is not incomparable to Berlin during Hitler’s reign. So, in the mid-2000s, Erdogan said that Syria and Assad were “close friends” of Turkey and were ready to establish a free trade area. But then, almost overnight, Assad in the eyes of Ankara “has made” outstanding and acrobatic somersault to get access to Syria oil reserves and became “an implacable enemy,” a tyrant and “a fighter with democracy”.
Yup. Just like Hitler used the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact (which also contained a trade agreement) to lull Stalin into a false sense of security, so he could invade the Soviet Union when he was ready. That’s more or less what Erdo-war did with Syria.
Reuters…
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-turkey-politics-vote-idUSKCN0YD0IW
….Yildirim, 60, said constitutional change was a necessity to legitimize the existing situation, tacit acknowledgment that Erdogan has extended the traditionally ceremonial role of the Turkish presidency.
“The most important mission we have today is to legalize the de facto situation, to bring to an end this confusion by changing the constitution,” he said. “The new constitution will be on an executive presidential system.”….
…As if proof were needed of where power in the party lies, delegates remained standing through a message from Erdogan read out at the start of the congress. Yildirim vowed that, under his leadership, the AKP’s way would be “Erdogan’s way”. Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag said Erdogan was the party’s one leader…
…He has made clear he will pursue two of Erdogan’s biggest priorities – the executive presidency and the fight against militants of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in the largely Kurdish southeast.
“They are asking us when the anti-terror operations will end. I am announcing hereby that operations will end when all our citizens are safe,” Yildirim said in an emotional speech.
“Operations will continue without pause until the bloody-handed terrorist organization PKK ends its armed actions.”…
Totally OT, but worth it for the LULZ.
Remember Senya Yatsenyuk, Nuland’s choice for leader of Ukraine? He was chosen because he supported ‘Western (ie US) values’. He seems to have disappreated from view. Not so long ago, he was in the news every day, usually seeking money for more hare-brained schemes. Now, he has disappreaed. Where has he gone? A well-deserved retirement?
Well that question has been answered. Here is is. But is it a holiday or business?

Reductio ad Hitlerum is a form of ad hominem, ad misericordiam, or a fallacy of irrelevance. The suggested rationale is one of guilt by association.
Yawn
“But the most hypocritical thing is the fight against “Islamic state” that sells oil to Erdogan and lives on this money”
Back that contention up.
And let’s be honest about the Armenian genocide- what other groups participated?
Will that be the young turks alex for 15000?
Some Kurdish bandits under the cover of Pan-Islamism were used by the Ottoman Turks to help them. But at the same time many Kurds hid Armenians from the Turks ,saving the lives of many Armenians at that time. Basically,the few thousands of Armenian Christians in Turkey today are the descendants of those hidden people (many others converted to Islam and assimilated as Turks or Kurds over the generations).
I see Erdagon is constantly looking to make friends . RT reports today he says the UNSC needs to be “reformed”. I’m “sure” the SC will give his “ideas” the proper weight they deserve (in the trashcan).
Alternative german media have a more detailed article about this subject:

silent and the Chancellor – Enabling Law in Turkey
Peter Orzechowski
Historical data often have their own dynamics. On May 23, 1949 the Basic Law comes into force, giving the Federal Republic of Germany one of the most democratic constitutions in the world. 67 years later, on the same day, the German chancellor meets with a head of state who has just geputscht via Enabling Act dictator – 83 years after a German chancellor had torn similarly absolute power in Germany itself. “””””
