    ERGENEKON ARRESTS PREEMPT COUP PLAN, OPERATION Â~@~^GLOVE"

    Were the British Young Turks planning a coup in Turkey? This certainly
    appears to be the case, given that Turkish authorities issued a new
    round of detention orders and carried out arrests over the weekend,
    revealing that the Ergenekon was planing a strategy of tension aimed
    at launching a coup.

    Called Operation â~@~^Glove," the coup was planned for shortly before
    the elections, which are to take place March 29, 2009. Following a
    classic strategy of tension scenario the Ergenekon was planning to
    assassinate leaders of the Armenian and Alevi minority communities,
    leading up to an assassination of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
    and members of the Supreme Court of Appeals, according to arrest and
    detention warrants.

    This follows the discovery of a munitions cache in a forest just
    outside of Ankara, where 30 grenades, plastic explosives, ammunition
    and Uzi machine guns were being stored. Weapons were also seized at the
    home of Lt. Col. Mustafa Donmez, who is said to be on the run, and Oguz
    Bulut, former leader of the Sivas Idealist Clubs, which were close to
    the Nationalist Movement Party and the Gray Wolves pan-Turkic fascists.

    The authorities believe that retired Generals Tuncer Kilinc and Kemal
    Yavuz, both of whom were arrested and questioned, were training
    military cadets who would participate in the coup. They had also
    chosen who would lead the coup-imposed government, but no names
    were mentioned.

    Speaking at a meeting of the Justice and Development Party and
    defending the operations against Ergenekon, Prime Minister Erdogan
    said, â~@~^Those whose shady plans are ruined by the illumination
    of the national will and the brightness of the rule of law are
    worried." Erdogan was referring to the opposition party and certain
    press groups which have been critical of the government's operations,
    and which have had links to some of those who are now on trial for
    their roles in the Ergenekon.

    â~@~^We have displayed a determined and courageous stance to save
    our country, cities, and nation from the oppression of gangs and
    mafia groups. We have come long distances on this issue. Gangs and
    mafia groups used to be the decision-makers in Turkey. Such was the
    country we inherited."
