It's nothing new or surprising. Turkey has always been a snake. But as long as this snake - whether in its shed Mahometan skin or its new skin of Kemalism which is being sloughed away or again in the new/old skin of Mahometanism - is doing the specific job it has been assigned by its Western conjurer, namely to infiltrate, pave or simply ram the way for its US master to the Turkic-speaking ex-Soviet republics in Central Asia, the Caucasus and Russia proper it gets a preferential treatment and rewards.Gulen enjoys as many privileges in his Pennsylvanian strongold as one can imagine while at the same time the White House tells us how much it is concerned about dangers Kemalism faces in Turkey. Hundreds of Gulen's radical schools have mushroomed across Central Asia creating a new jihadist and Pan-Turkist mindset and a movement that seeks to create a New Islamic World Order.At the same time the oil of Baku is flowing in rivers to the Turkish port of Ceyhan and from there to the West giving both Turkey and the West what they need most to promote their agenda - finacial and material resources.

So far it seems that both the snake and its conjurer are happy. The split will come later when the swag is divided and the snake is not so happy with its share. But when you use snakes you always incur a risk of being bitten by them.

How many "Turks who are Democratic" can you see over there ? How many Turks do you think are ready to agree with the seven points you have suggested in your previous post? In all my life I have met only one Turk who willingly faced and consented to the truth. He was a Turkish communist though.

> If they do not care we have to make them to care!

Absoluley ! I fully agree with you, my friend.
