The Rise of An Islamic State Under Obama November 7, 2012 By Theodore Shoebat Obama’s re-election has caused a major boost in confidence for countries like Britain and France in their wanting to topple Assad. But, it has also given confidence to Turkey, in their desire to oust out Assad; but the goal of the Turks is to conquer Syria, in order to revive the Ottoman empire. A little while back, I reported [see the following article: Turkey wanting to revive Ottoman empire] on the Turkish plan to revive the Ottoman empire, and that Syria will be a primary target for the expansion of their universal empire. Syrian Ambassador to Tehran Hamed al-Hassan, had this to say: Turkey is trying to reconstruct the Ottoman Empire in the region … “When Turkey’s Justice and Development Party won the Turkish parliamentary elections, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan presented his party’s victory to the people of Syria, Egypt, Morocco, Central Asia, and the Balkans which were once parts of the Ottoman Empire Expect to see Obama’s actions on the Middle East to be reckless, and the cause of chaos. We must expect to see the rise of Turkey following the future fall of Assad thanks to the U.S., Western allies, and NATO. With Assad gone, Turkey will then gradually take power over Syria. Syria will be the first nation to go under Turkish rule because of its closeness, and the expediency of invading such a country, on account that Turkey is trusted by the West, and that Syria will voluntarily allow itself to be under the power of Turkey to fill its absence of a strong enough government. Though, I believe that before this occurs, Syria will be under the Muslim Brotherhood. This will give rise to a Turkish superpower, which will ultimately expand throughout the Near East, which will pose a threat to the West and Israel. The fall of Syria, and the rise of Turkey will be the result of Obama’s re-election. Within hours of Obama’s second victory, Western allies had already designed a development for Syria, expecting a much more aggressive approach to Syria by the president. England and Turkey are already discussing the use of NATO against Bashar al-Assad, expecting more support from Obama. British prime minister David Cameron stated that There is an opportunity for Britain, for America, for Saudi Arabia, Jordan and like-minded allies to come together and try to help shape the opposition, outside Syria and inside Syria … And try to help them achieve their goal, which is our goal of a Syria without Assad. Turkey is working with rebel groups, stating that NATO has discussed on using Patriot missiles to protect a supposed safe zone inside Syria. Shashank Joshi, an analyst at London’s Royal United Services Institute, a military and security think tank, made a statement indicating the confidence felt by Western forces in their plan to oust Assad, on account of Obama re-election: With the re-election of Obama, what you have is a strong confidence on the British side that the U.S. administration will be engaged more on Syria from the get-go According to British Foreign Secretary William Hague, American, British, French, and Turkish diplomats are already scheduled to meet with Syrian rebel groups in Doha, Qatar. David Cameron also said that he will press Obama to try and end the Syrian revolution. As I have reported numerous times, the Syrian revolution is not peaceful, nor is it for the cause of peace and democracy, but for the establishment of a Islamic state in Syria, and primarily, for the configuring of a Caliphate. blog link: http://www.shoebat.com/2012/11/07/the-rise-of-an-islamic-state-under-obama/ -------------------------------- Turkey Wanting To Revive Ottoman Empire By Theodore Shoebat on October 22, 2012 Turkey will one day become the major superpower of the Middle East. From FARS: “Turkey is trying to reconstruct the Ottoman Empire in the region,” Hassan said at a conference on ‘Syrian Developments’ held at Tehran’s Sharif University of Technology on Monday. “When Turkey’s Justice and Development Party won the Turkish parliamentary elections, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan presented his party’s victory to the people of Syria, Egypt, Morocco, Central Asia, and the Balkans which were once parts of the Ottoman Empire,” he noted. Hassan said that Turkey has hatched and implemented plots in Syria despite the two countries’ previously good relations for the sake of the same goal. “Turkey has embarked on hatching plots against Syria, while we (Syria and Turkey) had good relations in the past. Ankara and Damascus had signed cooperation agreements and planned to cancel visa formalities (for each other’s citizens). The volume of trade transactions between Turkey and Syria amounted to billions of dollars, but that country (Turkey) hatches plots against Syria,” he said, indicating that the seemingly contradictory decisions and actions of Ankara are in fact the result of the same aspirations of Turkey, i.e. reviving the ancient Ottoman empire. Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country. Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes. The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad. Turkey along with the US, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been supporting terrorists and rebel groups in Syria and have practically brought a UN peace initiative into failure to bring President Assad’s government into collapse. In relevant remarks on October 15, Syrian envoy said that the Turkish borders with Syria are open to foreign plots, adding that a large number of terrorists killed or arrested in Syria are foreign nationals. “The plots (hatched outside and then) sent into Syria via the Turkish and Lebanese borders indicate the foreigners’ interference in this country, which is controlled by those countries supporting the interests of the global arrogance in the region,” the Syrian envoy said, addressing a conference on Syria in the Iranian Northern city of Qazvin. “Many terrorists arrested (in Syria) for shooting the Syrians are from Chechnya, Pakistan, Turkey, Libya, and etc, and are mercenaries recruited by the US,” he continued. Al-Hassan stressed that Turkey spearheads implementing the policies of the US and the Zionist regime in the region, and that the Turkish nation and Syria suffer the most from Ankara’s diplomacy in the Middle East. “The Turkish people and Syria are the ones who suffer the most from Ankara’s current policies, because Turkey’s present stances are targeting the stability and security of the region,” he said. Al-Hassan underlined that a majority of the Turkish people oppose the policies of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan vis-à-vis Syria. “Of course many Turkish people are against Erdogan’s policies in dealing with Syria which shows the depth of friendship and empathy of the people of the two countries,” the Syrian envoy added. —– Posted by Theodore Shoebat
