Mr. Walid Phares promotes “democraties” so he doesn’t have anything to do with Turkey, because in Turkey’s politicians share power with the military establishment. Turkey is a dictatorial “Democratie” {Demos Kratos = people – power from Greek}. If US is a “model of “Democratie”” then equally is Turkey, because General Washington admitted that even in that era US government shared power with the militaroindustrial complex. Turkey was never a “Democratie” in its blood thirsty history. Can you name another “Democratie” that every year assassinates tens of journalists, activists and political leaders? Unlike Germany has never recognized the holocaust of 1, 5 million Armenians out of 2 millions, never recognized the extermination of 1 million Greeks in their own territory or equally in their territory 40.000 Kurds. In recent years practiced the ethnic cleansing model, taught by “Israel”. Demolished hundreds of Kurd villages. In a traffic accident it was found that “Grey Wolfs”, plus drug dealers and collaborators of Tansoun Tsiler {ex Prime Minister and CIA agent} shared the same vehicle. “Grey Wolfs” is a state terrorist’s organization that kills opponents; In Cyprus they assassinated two Greek students that tried to raise the Greek flag in the green zone. Kurds are not allowed to speak their own language, their rights do not exist and when they throw stones to the police, they can go to jail for 3 to 10 years, because like in “Israel” throwing stones is considered a terrorist activity. Mr. Obama come right in! Behind the door is the precipice and the end of the world dominance.
