New Ties Emerge Between Clinton And Mysterious Islamic Cleric
The best bet here would be for an anonymous group to video hours and hours of Fethullah Gulen for broadcast and DVD distribution in Turkey.
Erdogen is incredibly litigious, suing anyone and everyone who crosses him, especially those who insult him or sneer at him. So it needs to be set up in such a way to utterly infuriate him. He is also prone to lashing out violently at his opponents, so some care must be taken.
All Fethullah Gulen would have to do is to sound reasonable and calm and sensible. It would drive Erdogen nuts.
NOTHING.
He will wait and hope the stalemate continues until he can hand it off to the next POTUS.
99% probability ignore the request.
Just because Obama and Erdogan are both Islamists radicals do not assume they are in love.
Possible next Erdogan's step -- formal extradition request from Turkish police, to get a formal denial -- Erdogan may or may not bother with this step.
Likely next we will see the US lack of cooperation as the final proof that the US was the sponsor of the coup, enraged Turks on the streets, closing of US bases, and perhaps Turkish "students", a la Iranian "students" from 1980s.
May they both burn in boiling oil.
Very little info coming out. There was a report that the base had resumed normal operations. The Incirlik FB page has mostly social or day to day type information trying to show a normal situation. However, there is an announcement of change of command for August 11th. Don't know if that is related to the charges Turkey has made against the US, or not.
He’ll say, “How High?”
If he could, it would be the other way around.
And Germans thought a Dutch Communist set the Reichstag Fire.
Pull all the B61’s out of the bunkers in Incirlik now and get them out of Turkey!
Again, Russia, although no saint of a country, is far less a clear and present danger than Turkey to the US.
"The Russians love their children too."
Good Lord. No one thinks it was the Turkish government?
No brainer. Fullen is the better choice.
Those B61’s are mine main worry... would not put it past the one in the white hut... to just let them be taken.
Who guards them , Turks or the US?
“Turkey refused American Troops crossover in 2003”
That was to be expected given Turkey’s history of putting road blocks to US interest in the ME.
The ME operates on Rumor as the West operates on Newspapers/Radio & TV news.
