Defending Kobani: Turkey's hesitation
An author says the Turkish government is attempting to cover up its
support for the Takfiri ISIL terrorist group, Press TV reports.
"We can also see that Turkish regime of Erdogan and Davutoglu is
very interested in hiding massive realities of what they are doing,
and the bottom line of all that is they are supporting ISIL," said
Webster Griffin Tarpley, an author and historian.
The commentator further noted that Turkey was contributing to the
bloodshed by extending its support to the militant group.
The Turkish authorities have essentially turned into "accessories to
genocide and mass murder," he said.
Ankara is "doing all this with hypocrisy of being treated [as an]
ally of the United States in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO)," he said.
He stressed that Turkey is the leading supporter of the militant groups
operating against the government of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria.
Tarpley referred to Turkey's refusal to allow military hardware and
reinforcements into the Syrian border town of Kobani and said that
the Turkish tanks had lined up near the troubled town to defend the
ISIL interests.
The remakes come as Turkey does not allow the Kurds inside Turkey to
depart for Syria to help fight the ISIL.
Western powers and their regional allies - especially Qatar, Saudi
Arabia and Turkey - are supporting the militants operating inside
Syria.
