Turkish Intelligence Chief: Putin Intervention in Syria Is Against Islam, ISIS is a Reality

Mr. Hakan Fidan, Turkish President's staunchest ally, condemned Russian military intervention in Syria, accusing Moscow of trying to 'smother' Syria's Islamist revolution and serious breach of United Nations law.

“ISIS is a reality and we have to accept that we cannot eradicate a well-organized and popular establishment such as the Islamic State; therefore I urge my western colleagues to revise their mindset about Islamic political currents, put aside their cynical mentalité and thwart Vladimir Putin's plans to crush Syrian Islamist revolutionaries,” Anadolu News Agency quoted Mr. Fidan as saying on Sunday.

Fidan further added that in order to deal with the vast number of foreign Jihadists craving to travel to Syria, it is imperative that ISIS must set up a consulate or at least a political office in Istanbul. He underlined that it is Turkey’s firm belief to provide medical care for all injured people fleeing Russian ruthless airstrikes regardless of their political or religious affiliation.

Well, the Cat's out of the Bag. Turkey has been supporting ISIS. So have we.

At this point, it looks like the Russians are on the side of right in this conflict, and we are on the side of wrong.

This is precisely what Zero believes also.

He’s right about one thing though: Putin’s intervention IS “against Islam.”

If it’s against Islam, we’re for it.

Turkey is a proud NATO partner. The same NATO that ISIS is yearning to destroy.

“condemned Russian military intervention in Syria, accusing Moscow of trying to ‘smother’ Syria’s Islamist revolution and serious breach of United Nations law.”

Then he expressed a desire for ISIS to open an embassy in Turkey.

That Russian crew didn’t die in vain. They exposed to the world as a certainty, what everybody thought. That ISIS and any rebels are a Turkish creation.

Turkey has long been an ISIS supporter. Turkey needs to be booted out of NATO.
