Comment
While the attacks in Van, Elazığ and Bitlis are subscribed to the PKK, the attack in Gaziantep is according to President Erdogan more likely to have been perpetrated by ISIS. Throughout this year, the people of Turkey have witnessed continual attacks, either claimed by the PKK, or allegedly conducted by the ISIS (who never took on any of the attacks officially), like the one in the Sultanahmet Square in Istanbul, the blast in Ankara in March (37 died), and the attack in Istanbul’s main airport, killing 44 people. The attacks in south-eastern Turkey come as the country is still struggling with the aftermath of the coup attack of July 15, which is blamed on the Gulen Movement.
Although the Ummah in Turkey is well aware who the real perpetrators are behind all of these attacks, the leading sphere in Turkey still seeks to diminish these attacks to a few corrupt puppets, the subcontractors of the true powers who order this slaughter on these soils.
Furthermore, they seek to silent the people’s voices. Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu even insisted, “As politicians, we never said that the U.S. or somebody else is behind the coup attempt, we never take these kinds of rumors seriously...” This stance is not only valid for the coup attempt, but has been proven legitimate for the government’s entire approaches towards (terror) in this country – this for more than 30 years.
No matter what the Turkish politicians dare to say or to do, as they are only puppets of their foreign masters - today the U.S.-led AKP government, just like the British-led prior governments – the true enemies of the people living on these soils, regardless of their flags, are the non-Muslim Islam-hostile Western powers. The most severe attack on the Muslims in region of Turkey, and thus the whole Muslim Ummah ever faced was the removal of the Khilafah "Caliphate", through the colonialist powers in 1924. Since that time coups, (terror) and chaos have become the only stable reality upon the Muslim Ummah. And as long as the Turkish Government does not change its priorities, its obedience to its colonialist masters, and to protect and maintain their political aims, the number, the styles of appearance and the power the enemies of Islam will continue to increase and will continue to take lives.
Therefore, in order to bring an end to this chaos and to these subsequent attacks it is absolutely indispensable to re-establish the Second Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah (Caliphate) upon the Method of Prophethood.
