Turkish intelligence chief: ISIS is a reality and we are optimistic about the future

[Shah9]

Ankara- Hakan Fidan, the head of Turkey's National Intelligence Organization, known by the MİT acronym, has drawn a lot of attention and criticism lately for his controversial comments about ISIS.

“ISIS is a reality and we have to accept that we cannot eradicate a well-organized and popular establishment such as the Islamic State; therefore I urge my western colleagues to revise their mindset about Islamic political currents and not be cynical at all,” said Mr. Hakan Fidan during a press conference in Istanbul on Wednesday.

Fidan added that in order to deal with the vast number of foreign Jihadists craving to travel to Syria, it is imperative that ISIS must set up a consulate or at least a political office in Istanbul. He further underlined that it is Turkey’s firm belief to provide medical care for all injured people who fled Syria regardless of their political or religious affiliation.

Recently as the fierce clashes between Kurdish forces and ISIS terrorists continue in the besieged city of Kobani, countless number of ISIS injured fighters enter the Turkish territory and are being admitted in the military hospital in Hatay Province. Over the last few days, the Kurdish fearless guerillas could fend off ISIS forces who wanted to capture Kobani, the Syrian Kurdish strategic city which is situated only few kilometers away from Turkish border.

Hemin Hawrami, a Kobani-based senior Kurdish official said that Turkey's Erdoğan and his oil-rich Arab allies have dual agendas in the war on terror and as a matter of fact they are supplying the Islamist militants with weapons and money.

Hawrami who was speaking via Skype highlighted the danger of Turkish-backed terrorist groups and added that what is happening in Syria cannot be categorized as a genuine and popular revolution against dictatorship but rather it is a chaos orchestrated by Erdoğan who is dreaming to revive the infamous Ottoman Empire.

Well what he is saying is proving to be true but ISIS needs to be eliminated but by only Muslim countries not by west

 

[atatwolf]

Well, he is right that ISIS is not going anywhere for the coming few decades. Even if US starts full-out war on ISIS with boots on the ground. Also neighboring countries like Iran of Saudi Arabia doesn't have the funds or army to carry out the job. It is better to transform ISIS into something moderate than to destroy it and at the end having another (maybe) more extremist organization to replace it. The Kurds first of all have to start peace process with the ISIS and Iran needs to stop supporting mass-murderer Assad who by the way killed more than ISIS with his barrel bombs, chemical attacks and his genocidal ways.

Yeah because obviously FSA wasnt enough for Turkey and western countries that want to see Assad gone, so Turkey created a group that kills and harms everybodys interests, including its own. No sane person is gonna buy it.

Dude, with all respect, we don't have to prove anything, you have to prove your case. We have better things to do than to refute every idiot's claim.

If you've been on this very forum you'd find several posts that talk about how 'turkey created ISIS'. I don't want to believe that man. But when the head of MIT makes statements that no other part of the world would endorse, it really gets suspicious

MIT doesn't make any statement out of line IMHO. We are neutral and have nothing to gain into jumping in this chaos.
