There should be no doubt left that Turkey has gone Islamic-Imperialist. Last Sunday, Turkey voted on Constitutional changes to give the Turkish government more power over the Army and courts. This effectively neuters the once secular establishment and opens the door for the Islamic Supremacist, AKP, to impose more Constitutional changes. Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan is now openly talking about a new constitution for Turkey. His goal is to reintroduce Sharia Law and do away with the reforms of Kemal Ataturk. The Iranian regime is his model and it’s no coincidence that the Ayatollahs are now sending money to the AKP to help their electoral chances in the next Turkish general election.
Iran has agreed to donate $25 million (£16 million) to Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) in a move that will increase fears that Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan is preparing to abandon the country’s secular constitution.
Western diplomats say they are alarmed by reports that Mr Erdogan has negotiated a deal with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for Tehran to make a substantial contribution to the campaign funds of Turkey’s leading Islamic party.
Under the terms of the deal Iran has agreed to transfer $12 million to the AKP, with further payments of up to $25 million to be made later in the year. The money is said to be meant to help support Mr Erdogan’s campaign for re-election for a third term in next year’s general election.

Turkey is not an ally of the United States, Israel or any other Western nation. It’s a vile nation with an evil history of genocide against Greeks, Armenians and Balkan Slavs. It’s recent verbal attacks on Israel has shown that regime’s true colors. The Cold War is over and it’s time to change our stance towards this filthy regime by kicking it out of NATO. We should cut off all military ties to this nation and stop arms sales to it. Israel should likewise end it’s military cooperation and selling arms to the Turks. Turkey currently occupies ethnically cleansed Northern Cyprus and it’s about time it gets condemned for this.
Turkey is now an Islamic-Imperialist nation as it was under Ottoman Times. It should be treated as a pariah state, just like their Iranian allies.
Election News Update:
After initially saying that the National Republican Senatorial Committee would not back Christine O’Donnell, they have backtracked. The NRSC is now going all in backing the will of the Republican electorate in support of O’Donnell.
In a clear sign of the grassroots pressure on Republican leaders, National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn just put out a statement embracing Christine O’Donnell — a dramatic contrast with his group’s curt response last night — and writing her a big check.
It’s a remarkable reversal, and a vivid illustration that the base is in charge and has the leadership running scared.
This shows the Progressive Establishment of the Republican Party is realizing the dislike the base has for them. I still have my doubts that Christine can win in Delaware as polls show her losing to the Democratic candidate Coons, but we have to try. Conceding this seat is a mistake as it will allow the Democrats to pour resources into other close Senate races.
The NRSC is doing the right thing here, but we must keep the pressure on them.
