Although many foreign policy analysts have focused on the Shiite menace emerging out of the Islamic Republics of Iran, there is a Sunni menace who has emerged out of what was once considered the friendly, secular Muslim nation of Turkey. Under the leadership of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey has been transformed from a reliable NATO ally into a growing international menace. Since Erdogan’s rise, Turkey has launched three major offenses into Syria, the last one, violently attacking our Kurdish allies in the fight against ISIS; it has sent fighters and military supplies to the Government of National Accord in Libya, has deployed ships to the Eastern Mediterranean, it has expanded its military operation in Iraq and it is sending troops and military equipment into Azerbaijan. Erdogan is a strong supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, (Hamas).
Beyond that, Erdogan has made incendiary attacks against French President Emmanuel Macron. This all started as a result of the decapitation of French teacher Samuel Paty, and Macron’s determination to crack down on Islamic extremism within France. This has ignited a separate recent jihadist attacks within France, resulting in the killing of three people in Nice, and may have also led to last week’s terrorist attack in Vienna in which four people were killed.
Who exactly is Recep Tayyip Erdogan and what are his objectives?
Here to tell us this is noted Turkish columnist Burak Bekdil.
