Fethullah Gülen CIA asset

[Firestarter]

The official story on Fethullah Gülen is about the following (from the “independent” Wikipedia)...

Gülen was born 27 April 1941 (or in 1938). His father was (also) an imam (Muslim preacher). Gülen became an imam in 1959; in 1966 he was transferred to a mosque in Izmir. Gülen retired from formal preaching in 1981.
Gülen's followers have built over 1,000 schools around the world.

Gülen has repeatedly talked with Jewish Zionist organisations, including a meeting in Turkey in 1998 with Israeli Sephardic Head Rabbi Eliyahu Bakshi Doron.
Gülen heavily criticised multinational aid groups that tried to help Palestinians in Gaza, because they didn’t respect Israel's sea blockade of Gaza. Gülen called this "a sign of defying authority, and will not lead to fruitful matters".

In 1999, Gülen went to the US for medical treatment, and then decided to stay…
Gülen was tried in absentia in 2000 in Turkey, for some remarks that seemed to favour an Islamic state. He was acquitted in 2008 under the new AKP government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
In 2013, Erdogan publicly accused Gülen of being behind corruption investigations into the AKP.
On 19 December 2014, a Turkish court issued an arrest warrant for Gülen. He was accused of running an "armed terrorist group".
These days, Gülen lives in exile in the US, residing in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania. He is sought by the Turkish government for his involvement in the 1 day July 2016 “coup” in Turkey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fethullah_G%C3%BClen

So now for the truth about Fethullah Gülen, besides that he and Erdogan are al-munafiqun.


In September 1980, the CIA and co staged a “real” military coup in Turkey. The CIA showed Turkey the true nature of a “democracy” where the intelligence agencies rule supreme.
A member of the US National Security Council said about an aide saying to then US President Jimmy Carter "Our boys have done it".

Some 650,000 people were detained, 230,000 people put on trial, 14,000 lost their citizenship, all political parties, unions and foundations were closed, 50 were executed, 171 were killed under custody, hundreds of thousands were tortured, thousands are still missing: https://www.hurriyet.com.tr/turkey-s...2-1980-9884161

Gülen publicly supported this bloody coup, so he must have been recruited by the CIA...

Fethullah Gülen’s green card application was supported by amongst others: George Fidas (CIA, Joint Military Intelligence Council), Morton Abramowitz (Ambassador to Turkey, President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and Senior Fellow at The Century Foundation), and Graham Fuller (Vice-Chairman of the National Intelligence Council of the CIA, Senior Political Consultant RAND Corporation): http://turkishinvitations.weebly.com...391/doc_28.pdf

It was Gülen’s network that created the Turkey’s AKP regime of Erdogan.

In 2011, Osman Nuri Gündes, former head of Foreign Intelligence for the Turkish intelligence agency MIT and chief intelligence adviser in the mid-1990s to Prime Minister Tansu Ciller, published a book.
In this book, Gündes claims that Gülen’s worldwide Islamic movement based in Pennsylvania has been providing cover for the CIA since the mid-1990s, and in the 90s it “sheltered 130 CIA agents” at its schools in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan alone.

Turkish journalists have detailed that Gülen-loyal police tied to Edrogan’s AKP have infiltrated the Turkish police, intelligence services and other key positions throughout the government.
In May 2013, already more than 100 Turkish journalists had been arrested for writing critically about “Gülen’s AKP”.

By 1988, Fuller had formally moved from a senior post at the CIA to the neo-conservative “think tank”, RAND Corporation, where he officially worked on the “Middle East, Central Asia, South and Southeast Asia, and problems of ethnicity and religion”. That’s completely different from the CIA covert operations…
Washington used Turkey and the AKP fundamentalist networks of Gülen to wreak havoc across the post-communist oil and mineral-rich regions of Central Asia. Graham Fuller and Fethullah Gülen were involved in those covert operations.
In 2008 Fuller published a book “The New Turkish Republic: Turkey as a Pivotal State in the Muslim World”. Sibel Edmonds explained that the process involved using Turkey with assistance from “actors from Pakistan, and Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia” as a proxy.

According to Daniel Hopsicker, in 1995 the uncle of the alleged Boston bombers, Ruslan Tsarnaev, used the home address of his then-father-in-law, Graham Fuller, in his correspondence.
When Tsarnaev was married to Samantha Ankara Fuller, he worked on oil deals in the Caucasus for companies connected to Halliburton and as consultant for the US Agency for International Development (USAID) in Kazakhstan: http://www.voltairenet.org/article178623.html
(archived here: http://archive.is/rfmaQ)

Samantha Fuller and Ruslan Tsarnaev divorced sometime before 2004.

In the 1980s, Graham Fuller was deeply involved in supporting the opium producing Afghanistan, and in arming both Iran and Iraq for reasons unknown.
Another reference for Gülen’s Green Card, Morton Abramowitz, was also deeply involved with the Afghan mujahedin and Kosovo “rebels”.

Today, Turkey has over 85,000 active mosques, 1 for every 880 citizens — compared to 1389 hospitals — the highest number per capita in the world with 90,000 imams: http://www.progressivepress.net/the-...-lives-in-usa/


I finish this post with a video by James Corbett and a transcript.
Necip Hablemitoglu of Ankara University, who was assassinated in 2002 in a still unsolved case, wrote a report in January 2001 “Operation Agents – Infiltration Spies and Fethullah-ists” in which he claimed that Gülen

voluntarily worked as an agent for the CIA and lived under the protection of the FBI in the state of Pennsylvania, on a private estate designed for him.

Latif Erdogan (no family of the Turkish President) said in 2014:

Gulen himself is unequivocally a pro-European Union and Atlantic person, a free marketeer and a pragmatist on Israel. Erdogan is at his core a populist reactionary, a state capitalist and a crony capitalist.

Graham Fuller defended that Gülen couldn’t be behind the July 2016 one day “coup”, because:

He even felt compelled to support the military takeover of the state in 1980 in order to preserve the state in the face of raging guerrilla warfare raging in the streets.

Bill Clinton, once praised Gülen at a “Friendship Dinner” hosted by the Turkish Cultural Center:

By being here tonight you are contributing to a lasting peace and security at home and abroad. You’re contributing to the promotion of the ideals of tolerance and interfaith dialogue inspired by Fethullah Gulen and his transnational social movement.

One of the important facts I can add to this thread is the money laundering “Wealth Peace Act” law that was rejected before 15 July 2016, and then in the “state of emergency” was quietly passed through the Parliament: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6544366

Following the “coup”, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan immediately declared a three-month state of emergency. Under the state of emergency, Turkish authorities can hold “suspects” in detention for 30 days without charges.
In July 2016, Turkish authorities issued arrest warrants for 42 journalists for their role in the “coup”, including Nazli Ilicak, who had been fired from the pro-government Sabah daily in 2013 for criticising ministers caught up in a corruption scandal: http://www.france24.com/en/20160725-...d-coup-erdogan

Earlier this month, the Turkish prosecutor has sought life sentences for 6 journalists for being part of the “media wing” of the Fethullah Gülen Terrorist Organisation (FETO).
Media personalities (journalists) Ahmet Altan, Mehmet Altan, Nazli Ilicak, Yakup Simsek, Sükrü Tugrul Özsengül, Sanliman and Fevzi Yazici were all charged.

Ilicak defended herself with the following:

Does contributing to the struggle against corruption mean serving FETÖ? I wrote those words because I’m an honest journalist. I was not calling for the downfall of the government.

http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/ist...en-case-123909


Mehmet and his brother Ahmet Altan were charged with starting the coup with “subliminal messages” in a television talk show a day before the 15 July 2016 “coup”.
Mehmet Altan responded to these ridiculous accusations with:

There were no subliminal messages on that TV program... I have been detained for a non-existent message, over a non-existent crime.

Surely I wasn’t aware of the coup attempt. I know that I stand here today just because I did not applaud the slaughter of democracy by the government.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-t...-idUSKBN19C2HL


Since the 15 July 2016 “coup” attempt, the state of emergency has been continued, 150,000 people have spent time in police custody. At least 50,000 people were jailed and there are plans to build 228 new prisons over the next five years to make room for more.
It looks to me like the “coup” has been very successful…

More than 100,000 judges, prosecutors, police officials, academics and elected mayors were fired. The majority of the fired Mayors — some 93 at the last tally — are Kurds.
According to Turkey’s Human Rights Association, at least 2278 people were tortured and 11 others “disappeared” between January and November of this year.

According to the Turkish Journalists’ Association, at least 146 journalists are behind bars in Turkey.
Amnesty International Turkey director Taner Kilic has been locked up on charges of membership of FETO.
Several hundred lawyers are in pre-trial detention, for terrorism charges.

Osman Kavala has been jailed for 42 days in pre-trial detention for orchestrating the coup together with the Americans Henri Barkey and former CIA agent Graham Fuller.

Sezgin Tanrikulu, a prominent opposition member of parliament, claims that between 2002 and 2017 — during the 15 years reign of Erdogan’s AKP Party — at least 18,762 people were tortured and at least 482 journalists have been arrested.
Tanrikulu said that at least 15 people, accused of links to FETO, were “suicided” since July 2016.
Eleven parliamentarians are currently in jail on terror charges. Among them are Selahattin and Figen Yuksekdag, the co-presidents of the pro-Kurdish People’s Democratic Party, the third biggest party in Turkey: https://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/ori...w-prisons.html

I was thinking to myself: where have I heard that name Graham Fuller before?!?
Graham Fuller is the CIA officer, who detailed a plan to deal with Syria under Assad’s predecessor — his father, Hafez al-Assad — and is dated 14 September 1983.

Fuller’s analysis, describes Assad as a nuisance hindering the interests of the USA and Israel. Destabilisation of Iraq and Iran also features prominently in this plan to get rid of the elder Assad.

Here are some excerpts from Fuller’s document:

Syria at present has a hammerlock on US interests both in Lebanon and in the Gulf — through closure of Iraq’s pipeline thereby threatening Iraqi internationalization of the war. The US should consider sharply escalating the pressures against Assad through covertly orchestrating simultaneous military threats against Syria from three border states hostile to Syria: Iraq, Israel and Turkey.
(…)
Faced with three belligerent fronts, Assad would probably be forced to abandon his policy of closure of the pipeline. Such a concession would relieve the economic pressure on Iraq, and perhaps force Iran to reconsider bringing the war to an end. It would be a sharpening blow to Syria’s prestige and could effect the equation of forces in Lebanon.
(…)
Syria continues to maintain a hammerlock on two key U.S. interests in the Middle East:
— Syrian refusal to withdraw its troops from Lebanon ensures Israeli occupation in the south;
— Syrian closure of the Iraqi pipeline has been a key factor in bringing Iraq to its financial knees, impelling it towards dangerous internationalization of the war in the Gulf.
Diplomatic initiatives to date have had little effect on Assad who has so far correctly calculated the play of forces in the area and concluded that they are only weakly arrayed against him. If the U.S. is to rein in Syria’s spoiling role, it can only do so through the exertion of real muscle which will pose a vital threat to Assad’s position and power

Even before the July 2016 “one-day coup”, Erdogan had blacklisted George Soros. Until about 5 years ago, Erdogan had no bad feelings about Soros. But then suddenly Soros was named an opponent of the AKP.

There’s a link between Fethullah Gülen and Soros…
In 2013, a report on media freedom of the Soros founded Center for American Progress (CAP) was co-financed by Tuskon, the “Turkish Confederation of Businessmen and Industrialists” of the Gülen movement.


There’s also a link between the ECFR (of amongst others George Soros), and Erdogan.
The ECFR was cofounded in 2007 by Mabel Wisse Smit (still one of its presidents), sister-in-law of King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, and was financed by George Soros. Since the 1990s, Mabel has worked for the Open Society Foundation of Soros. Prince Constantijn, brother of Willem-Alexander, is also a member of the ECFR.
In 2003, Morton Abramowitz, who also supported Gülen’s green card request, publicly supported Mabel when she got some bad press in the Netherlands.

Ekim Alptekin, who’s partners in crime with Erdogan’s cabinet and affiliated with Mike Flynn, is a member of the ECFR: http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/01/th...gmatic-client/


In 2005, George Soros supported the AKP of Recep Tayyip Erdogan with the words:

The AKP is more honest than administrations which preceded it, there is very little corruption. I believe they deserve support.

http://www.hurriyet.com.tr/george-so...support-326041



The ECFR, has continued to support the despotic Erdogan government, while ignoring the clear signs, that it was Erdogan, who had both the motive and ability to stage a (false flag) coup.
Some of these pro-Erdogan pieces were in fact written by Asli Aydintasbas, Alptekin’s ex-wife.

Please don’t pay attention to the facts, or you might find out that Erdogan’s spokesman, Ibrahim Kalin, is also a member of the ECFR of Soros...

Another interesting Turk on the ECFR is Ahmet Davutoglu, former foreign and prime minister of Turkey. Davutoglu was involved in funding and supported ISIS.

Sweden's former Prime Minister and Co-Chair of the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) Carl Bildt is another one that has repeatedly published pro-Erdogan propaganda: https://www.turkishminute.com/2017/1...keys-dictator/

See Carl Bildt and Erdogan in Ankara, Turkey on 23 May 2017.

I have some more on the connections between Fethullah Gülen and Erdogan.
When we follow the trail of the giant PR firm Burson-Marsteller it also leads to Bush, Clinton and Donald Trump.

In November 2015, Turkish prime minister for the AKP, Ahmet Davutoglu, hired Burson-Marsteller: https://euobserver.com/foreign/131009

In 2017, Burson-Marsteller was hired by Turkey.
From 2012 to 2015, it was (also) lobbying for the Alliance for Shared Values, a group tied to Erdogan’s partner in crime, Fethullah Gülen.

In 2017, Turkish state bank HalkBank hired former Congressman Bob Wexler and Ballard Partners for $375,000 per quarter. Mehmet Hakan Atilla, Halkbank’s deputy general manager, has been charged by the US Justice Department for conspiring to evade sanctions on Iran (the Reza Zarrab gold-for-gas affair).
Brian Ballard is a long-time lobbyist for Donald Trump, and raised $16 million for Trump’s presidential campaign. Trump called him after purchasing Mar-a-Largo in 1985, and paid Ballard at least $460,000 from 2013 to 2015 for lobbying work: https://armenianweekly.com/2017/06/2...-and-pr-firms/

In 2011, the FBI was investigating the illegal spending of millions of dollars of tax money by Gülen charter schools. The charter schools recruited foreign teachers, and funnelled money to Turkey.


In 2008, one Karen Hughes, trusted advisor to President George W. Bush, joined the board of directors of Burson-Marsteller…
In 2011, the Cosmos Foundation’s Harmony Schools (Gülen charter schools) hired none other than Karen Hughes: http://activerain.com/blogsview/2286...mos-foundation


Even before 15 July 2016, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was already warning for a coming coup…
News outlets in Russia also helped Erdogan by repeated stories on a coming Turkish coup.

To give more attention to this story, in April 2016, the Turkish army denied the coup plans.
It was noted at the time by the Washington Post that Erdogan used the rumours of a military takeover to expand his powers and curb political dissent: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news...tary-coup-buz/
(archived here: http://archive.is/P55hb)


In one of those drama-increasing details the coup plotters waited until President Erdogan left the resort of Marmaris, where he was taking a holiday.
And then, according to CNN Turk, 20 minutes after Erdogan “escaped” 25 soldiers in helicopters descended on a hotel there on ropes, shooting: https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...kish-officials

Erdogan was caught lying by claiming “that his hotel on Turkey's Aegean coast was bombed after he left: http://www.straitstimes.com/world/mi...-after-he-left
(archived here: http://archive.is/56vYW)


In a speech on 16 July , Erdogan called said the coup “a gift from God” because it would allow him to “cleanse the army” as had already been planned: https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ethullah-gulen


In March 2016, in one of those strange coincidences, chairman and founder of the Blackwater mercenary firm, Erik Prince, visited Turkey under media silence.
Reportedly Blackwater had been hired by Erdogan’s AKP Party after Turkey made a “secret” deal with Israel. Then Israel advised the Turkish government to use Blackwater’s capability to create terrorist groups in Turkey: http://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/03...ips-to-turkey/

I often find it hard to know in which thread to put information, because everything ties together...

Evgeny Buryakov, who has been convicted of spying for Russia in 2016, worked in the New York office of Russian state-owned bank VEB bank, run by Sergey Gorkov. Gorkov has also met Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. That's the same VEB bank that was banned from doing business in the US by the Obama administration, because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Crimea.

Erik Prince is none other than Betsy DeVos’s brother, Trump’s Education Secretary. Prince has been partners in crime with the UAE for a long time (which includes the brutal war against Yemen).
Erik Prince contributed $250,000 to the Trump campaign and was an unofficial adviser to Trump. Prince was repeatedly seen visiting Trump Tower during the transition period.
Prince is also close to Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon (who now supposedly broke up with Trump for his “criticism”).

On 11 January 2017, during the transition period, Erik Prince met secretly in the Seychelles in the middle of the Indian Ocean with a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss opening a secret “back channel” between Putin and Trump.
The 11 January meeting between Prince and Putin’s ally was facilitated by Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan, who in December made a secret trip to New York to meet Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn and Jared Kushner at Trump Tower: https://www.salon.com/2017/04/05/all...th-putins-men/
(archived here: http://archive.is/u8ofA)

Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan (again) leads to the FDD of Trump backer Sheldon Adelson, who on 3 October visited Trump and Kushner in the White House to discuss the strategy to make the most of the 1 October Las Vegas “mass shooting”: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6535598

Burak Yeneroglu was ranked number 96 on a list of Obama’s top fund-raisers for 2011-12, with $652,900.
Yeneroglu was listed as owner of “Bayrock Natural Stone Llc”, located in Carlstadt, New Jersey.
In November 2008, Yeneroglu had made a campaign donation to Hillary Clinton's PAC. He then listed his employer as Bayrock Group LLC, the parent corporation of Bayrock Natural Stone.

Bayrock has also sponsored various Gulenist events, and it appeared in the portfolio of Lotus Media Productions of the Gülen movement. The clients of Lotus are exclusively Gülen organisations, private Gülen schools, or Gülen charter schools.
Yeneroglu is affiliated with the Turkic American Alliance that’s also close to Fethullah Gülen.

Fettah Tamince, who supposedly “owns” the Rixos hotel chain in Turkey, while Tevfik Arif secretly owns a majority share, is also affiliated with the Gülen Movement. In an interview, Tamince once said that Gülen is his "idol" and he visits him frequently in the US.

When Mahmut Topal made three $35,800 contributions to the 2012 Obama campaign, these were returned. Topal listed his employer as Calik USA.
The Calik Group is owned by billionaire Ahmet Calik, a friend of President Erdogan, son-in-law of Erdogan, Berat Albayrak, was CEO of Calik Holding from 2007 till 2013 and has since become a Minister.
In 2009, Joshua Hendrick wrote that:

The GM [Gulen Movement] is also intimately linked with Turkey's recently famous multi-billion dollar family holding company, The Calik Group...

Gülen Charter schools receive substantial grants from the federal government; for example, an 28 December 2012 letter informed the Harmony Public Schools (Gulen charter schools in Texas), that they would receive a grant in the amount of $29,866,398.00: http://turkishinvitations.weebly.com...0-a-plate.html

I’ve searched and found more information on the Islamic terror financing henchman of the Saudi Royal family, Yassin Al-Qadi (of Ptech, the Muslim Brotherhood and Dick Cheney)...

On 16 February 2013, Yassin al-Qadi, who was listed as an al-Qaeda financier by the UN and the US Treasury, was involved in a car accident in Istanbul, Turkey.
Even though Al-Qadi was banned from entering Turkey, he was there at the special invitation of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Al-Qadi financed Erdogan´s 2014 campaign.

See the photo at the BIM.
On the left side, is assistant commissioner Mevlüt Kama.
On the right side, we can see YASSIN AL-QADI, accompanied by his son Muaz Kadi.


Al-Qadi had met with Turkish intelligence agency head Hakan Fidan and President Erdogan in Ankara.
Erdogan urged Al-Qadi to go to the “our Medipol” hospital even though there were other hospitals closer: https://michelduchaine.com/2013/12/3...ker-in-turkey/


An important part of Erdogan’s propaganda machine is the little-known Pelican (Bosphorus Global is its official name), whose name was derived from the blogspot “pelikandosyasi” (Pelican file).
Pelican works behind the scenes to shape Turkish public opinion, by publishing fake stories, fuel conspiracy theories, slander government’s opponents, troll social media and manipulate government agencies; all for Erdogan.
The other 2 important propaganda centers of Erdogan, are the office of Erdogan (a.k.a. “the Palace”) and Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization (MIT).

The Pelican network is controlled by 2 of Erdosan´s key point men.
The first is his son-in-law and current energy minister Berat Albayrak. The Redhack emails show that Bosphorus Global was set up with the approval and support of Berat.
The second is Berat´s brother Serhat Albayrak, who manages Turkuvaz that owns newspapers, radio stations, TV networks and magazines, including Sabah and A TV. Turkuvaz is used to amplify Pelican´s propaganda.

Erdogan crony Cemil Barlas leads the Pelican group, whose sister Canan Barlas is married to the chief columnist Mehmet Barlas at Erdogan´s Sabah daily (managed by Serhat Albayrak).

The second man behind the group is Nafiz Can Paker, who was on the board of directors of the Open Society Foundation until June 2011.
The OSF was of course founded and is controlled by the backer of Erdogan and Fethullah Gülen, George Soros: https://www.turkishminute.com/2018/0...ropaganda-war/
