I would say he is more desirous of being far away from the Russians.

Maybe the Russians will do their own Libya strike? I bet Putin is thinking about it.

He will probably get the Egyptians to do it behind Obama’s back. Doing that with Iraqis almost got the bastard.

If this is true, why was al-Baghdadi, the world’s most wanted terrorist, allowed to go to Turkey for medical treatment, and how did he get from Turkey to Libya without the Turkish government being in cahoots? Incidentally, Turkish Airlines is one of the airlines that has flights from Turkey to Tripoli.

Bin Laden In Turkey Twice

ISTANBUL, Sept 21 (NTV-MSNBC) - Records show that Osama Bin Laden, the prime suspect in the terrorist attacks against the US last week, visited Turkey in 1996 and 1998. However, the curtain over who he has met with has yet to be lifted. The Saudi dissident bin Laden arrived in Turkey on 28 August 1996 in his private plane and stayed for 33 hours. bin Laden’s plane is reported to have landed at Adana’s Sakirpasa airport in the south of Turkey from the city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. The plane flew then to Istanbul and left Turkey the next day. During this trip to Turkey bin Laden was accompanied by one person apart from the crew.

bin Laden paid another visit to Turkey on 17 February 1998, just six months before bombing attacks on the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. This visit also had a stop over in Adana before flying to Istanbul. According to the records of Havas, which provided on the ground services to the plane, apart from bin Laden himself who was listed as “Muhammad Osama” there was one other passenger named El Sawaf.

Although bin Laden was on Interpol’s wanted list at the time of both his visits he has faced no difficulties while in Turkey.

Airways experts say that bin Laden could have flown from Jeddah to Istanbul without his plane having to refuel. One official from the State Airports Management said that it was noteworthy that in both cases bin Laden used the Adana airport and that this could have been a conscious choice.

Adana’s Sakirpasa airport is known for its poor record of security in recent years, with a number of hijackings taking place. The official stated that Adana could have been chosen to avoid passport controls.

Another interesting detail about the visits of bin Laden to Turkey is that the first visit was reported to the Ankara State Airport Management Directorate, as is compulsory for all private planes. The first visit has been recorded in Istanbul among in secret files. Another point was that the documentation for ground services given to the bin Laden plane were not put on computer and was filled by hand with the registration number left blank.

The American newspaper the Wall Street Journal in a news piece citing CIA sources, has claimed that bin Laden held talks with the Iraq intelligence service El Muhaberat.

He was probably depressed over losing Time’s POTY award to Angela Merkel.

And our vaunted intelligence agencies didn’t pick this up?

Oh, I'm sure they picked it up. And presented it to the Mufti in Chief. Who probably skipped is intel briefing, or if he read it, ignored it.

"What the hell was Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi doing in Turkey, a NATO member, anyways? "

ISIS is routinely treated in Turkish military hospitals.

Erdogan is muslim brotherhood , ISIS is just another offshoot of the muslim brotherhood so both see eye to eye.
