‘Turkish government to blame for terrorist funding’ – retired US Army Major General

Published on Dec 1, 2015
Russia is preparing a draft UN resolution aimed at cutting off financing to terrorist groups, including ISIS. The jihadi group makes up to 1.5 million dollars a day from black-market fuel exports. The Russian government says it has proof that most of the oil sold by terrorists makes it way to Middle East markets via Turkey. Paul Vallely, a retired Major General of the US Army, thinks world powers need to put greater pressure on the Turkish government.

The Islamic State (IS) and Saudi Arabia prescribe near-identical punishments for a host of crimes, according to documents circulated by the militant group.

IS published a list of crimes and their punishments on 16 December 2014 to serve “as an explanation and as a warning” to those living in territory under their control in large parts of Iraq and Syria.

The document lists hadd crimes, which are considered to be “against the rights of God,” and includes fixed punishments for theft, adultery, slander and banditry.

Crimes deemed hadd and their punishments are derived from the Quran and the hadith, the collected teachings and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad. However, with the exception of Saudi Arabia, and IS-controlled areas, they are rarely applied.

The US is demanding that Turkey close a 60-mile stretch of its border with Syria which is the sole remaining crossing point for Isis militants, including some of those involved in the massacre in Paris and other terrorist plots.

The complete closure of the 550-mile-long border would be a serious blow to Isis, which has brought tens of thousands of Islamist volunteers across the frontier over the past three years.

In the wake of the Isis attacks in Paris, Washington is making clear to Ankara that it will no longer accept Turkish claims that it is unable to cordon off the remaining short section of the border still used by Isis. “The game has changed. Enough is enough. The border needs to be sealed,” a senior official in President Barack Obama’s administration told The Wall Street Journal, describing the tough message that Washington has sent to the Turkish government. “This is an international threat, and it’s coming out of Syria and it’s coming through Turkish territory.”....

It runs both ways. First European nationals go to the Middle East to join this terrorist organization and get training and combat experience, then they go back via the same route to carry out terror attacks back home.

I've found a good article about this whole mess around Syria: http://oil-price.net/en/articles/oil-prices-and-syrian-civil-war.php
Probably the author is quite right on the root causes.

The Saudis spent $1.35 million in gifts to the Obamas in 2014.
Who said they weren't generous?  Grin

Well, it´s a protection racket. If you don´t pay there are unpleasant consequences. That´s how it is with the mob, it´s a tried and trusted business model in Chicago and other places. Yeah I know; it´s not politically correct to mention Chicago in this context, especially since Obama got most of his training there.

Go ahead, mention Chicago.  But also mention that Obama can't keep any of those gifts, they just go into the National Archives.  Although maybe the Saudi givers didn't know or believe that.

Something interesting for the future:

Find out how much money the sauds donated to the clinton(hillary and bill) foundations.

And they share the same obsession with beheadings. The latest fruitcake on the throne was a 79-year old crown prince last January when the king kicked the bucket. He is already breaking all beheadings records which isn´t surprising since he´s severely demented.

It is an open secret that King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud is a "King" only in name. He is having mental and medical issues, and is completely under the control of other powerful people. And he might be the last King of Saudi, if things go on like this. The oil wealth will run out in 4 or 5 years, and after that there will be rebellions and riots in Riyadh. The monarchy will be overthrown, and Saudi Arabia will disintegrate in to smaller states. There is also a chance of the ISIS seizing power there.

British deviants and weirdos just love this kind of fruitcake obviously.



Jan. 2015

Prince Charles and David Cameron arrived in Saudi Arabia yesterday to pay their respects after the death of King Abdullah – despite mounting protests over the country’s ‘appalling’ human rights record.

There were also claims that flying the Union Jack at half-mast last week was unnecessary, because the Saudis had not lowered their own flag.

The Prince of Wales, Mr Cameron and other leaders were set to meet the new ruler King Salman in the capital, Riyadh. But the visit was dogged by claims that UK tributes – including lowering flags at Buckingham Palace and Downing Street – were inappropriate.

The Saudis are a slightly sophisticated form of ISIS.
They impose similar rules on their inhabitants, but are slightly tolerant of what goes on outside their boundaries.

And they share the same obsession with beheadings. The latest fruitcake on the throne was a 79-year old crown prince last January when the king kicked the bucket. He is already breaking all beheadings records which isn´t surprising since he´s severely demented.

Iraqi Politician Claims Turkey Lets ISIL Sell Oil for Meager $20 a Barrel

MIDDLE EAST

Turkey allows the Islamic State terrorist group to sell Iraqi and Syrian oil for just $20 a barrel, Iraq's former National Security Adviser Mowaffak al-Rubaie wrote on Saturday.

In a statement posted on his Facebook page al-Rubaie, who is also a leader of the Law-Governed State  parliamentary coalition, outlined Ankara’s four-pronged support for the Islamic militants, with the illegal oil trade topping the list.

“First and foremost, the Turks help the militants sell stolen Iraqi and Syrian oil for $20 a barrel, which is half the market price,” Mowaffak al-Rubaie  wrote.

The Million Dollar Question: How Is ISIL Selling Oil and Who Is Buying It?
Turkey in general, and Istanbul in particular, is also a place where ISIL commanders recruit local migrants and take them to Mosul in Iraq or Raqqa in Syria, he noted.
“Each month hundreds of radicals cross the Turkish border, while the local law enforcers pretend they just don’t see,” Mowaffak al-Rubaie wrote, adding that many wounded ISIL fighters were apparently undergoing treatment in Turkish hospitals.

During a joint news conference with French President Francois Hollande in Moscow earlier this week, President Vladimir Putin mentioned the massive supplies of Syrian oil being sent to Turkey by the Islamic State terrorist group.

It is a waste to give weapon to Arabs. As you can see most of these weapons will be seized and used in fight with anti ISIS coalition.
You have now 2300 more vehicles to destroy because of that. Great idea to weaponize Muslims.

Waste is relative. The more waste and destruction of weapons and other war materiel the better for the business interests that manufacture them. And since those interests fund politicians there will be some crumbs for them too. Which of course leads to even more waste and crumbs and so on. It´s a perpetual machine driven by human dysfunction I guess.

I guess glaring similarities between Saudi methods and those of the Islamic State – both have a peculiar fondness for beheadings – are harder and harder to ignore for most people. But with Saudi executions now running at triple the 2014 rate according to Amnesty International, the Saudis are pressing on regardless. And why shouldn´t they; their big friends in Paris and London are fawning at their feet like never before and crawling over each other to sell them weapons. Uncle Sam seems to be giving up on those fruitcakes and Cameron and Hollande are desperate to replace it as the Saudi´s very best and dearest friends. Like seeks like. Must be the mentality that attracts these people to each other. That and oil and weapons sales.

ISIS should just go ahead and merge with Saudi Arabia.
Then they can carry on with their activities undisturbed.
