How Can You Wish to See the US
Who Always Stabs Muslims in the Back beside you?
News
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who is in the USA to meet high-level executives on Nuclear Security Summit; met with American Jewish associations and academics, Erdogan who underlined the importance of Turkey's alliance and cooperation with the USA said, "Our relations with the USA today like in the past are of indispensable quality. In solving the problems we have to face it is obvious that there is no alternative to the Turkey-US alliance. The main issue here is making this cooperation truly efficient on both, the strategic and the tactical level."
Erdogan said, "In a region full of unmanageable political areas, we as Turkey struggle to canalize developments in a manner to serve regional and global peace." And made the following expression: "Even though we feel alone in our struggle sometimes, we want to think that the USA is on our side." [Source: http://www.yenisafak.com/gundem]

This and many other statements during his visit to the USA, show that President Erdogan has not a single independent policy, neither for Turkey nor for the Muslim world. It is vileness and lowness when a leader who received the support of the Muslims with 52% of the votes, who at the same time is a Muslim leader, and a leader who is also loved by the peoples of other Muslim countries for his Islamic rhetoric, wants to see the Muslims' eternal enemy, the USA, on his side.
Now let us make short analyses of President Erdogan's statements during his visit to the USA.
His statement, "We want to think that the USA is on our side" is in reality not related to the regional political developments, for Turkey is fairly running after the USA's policy on both the Syrian and the Iraq issue. In other words, the USA seeks to make its own dirty and insidious policy dominant over Syria, by standing behind Turkey and commanding it. Turkey has never had any Syria or Iraq policy of its own. This is actually pretty obvious, but I still would like to explain and to bring evidence by giving two examples.
In an interview to CNN's Christiane Amanpour following his meeting with the Jewish representatives in the USA, Erdogan answered questions related to the Syria issue and openly said that "the USA is the country who leads the work", and stated that "Turkey wants to be an active part of the coalition forces." This situation qualifies as proof of the USA using Turkey for its dirty ambitions when needed and as much as needed. The President's expression of Turkey desiring to work more according the USA's interests, is an overwhelmingly sad state of affairs.
Well, but is there any dispute or conflict between Turkey and the USA about acknowledging or not the PYD as a terror organisation in recent times? In other words, is the PYD issue on a level to negatively affect the cooperation between Turkey and the USA, so that Erdogan stated to want the USA on Turkey's side? No!
Turkey tried to articulate the PYD as a terrorist organisation on an international arena purely in order to silence and to mollify its domestic public opinion on this issue. Because he could not create an image of cooperating with the PKK's right arm in Syria, the PYD, while on the one side being in an armed struggle against the PKK in Turkey's Eastern region. Therefore, Turkey's efforts to show the PYD as a terrorist organisation is completely artificial and aims at the domestic public opinion. The PYD, who works in Syria for the USA's interests, is one of the actors of the pro-American Syria policy, which in fact is also supported by Turkey. The USA will not hesitate to choke it off too after it is done with it. Foreign Minister Çavuşoğlu's statement on this issue, "We'll not be offended just because the USA does not say PYD is a terror organization" is confirming this. Erdoğan's answer to CNN correspondent Amanpour's question, "Did relations between USA, Obama and Turkey come to a stop?" is supporting this. Erdoğan's response is as follows: "There is no sense in creating faction by claiming there is something like this in Turkey-US relations. We won't allow for those who work to damage this, and I am a leader who believes that America won't allow for that too."
In summary, Turkish President Erdoğan's visit to the USA is one of history's most abasing political disappointments. Erdoğan who uses aggressive rhetoric in Turkey at every opportunity towards the USA and 'Israel' to gain the people's support for his own political interests and future plans; seems virtually waiting for ratification by the USA when he is in real politic. Although he knows of this dirty plan of the USA, the political solution architect in Syria, he lies to his and the Syrian people and deceives them. While the USA set on all the World countries against the Syrian people in order to prevent the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah, which it regards a great threat to itself, Erdoğan talks about taking on the construction jobs of a city to be built alongside the Turkey-Syria border, and boasts with this.
Well, what else to say...
Shame, it's a crying shame...
