Turkey, a
longstanding member of NATO, has long been involved in the funding of
the Islamic State, and supports not only ISIL but also other jihadi
groups including Ahrar al-Sham and Jabhat al-Nusra, al-Qaeda's
affiliate in Syria, British investigative journalist Nafeez Ahmed
reveals.
Referring
to fresh evidence and citing various sources, British investigative
journalist Dr. Nafeez Ahmed has revealed that Turkey is up to its
eyeballs in clandestine collaboration with Syrian Islamist groups
including the notorious Islamic State; to make matters worse, the
major Western powers are not going to do anything about it.In the
wake of the infamous attack on Paris, French President Hollande has
declared war on ISIL and announced a plan to strengthen the powers of
his country’s police and security services, according to Ahmed.
Ahmed
adds that the Turkish media has already reported that more than
100,000 fake Turkish passports have purportedly been given to ISIL
militants. Moreover, a number of Uyghur nationals were captured with
fake Turkish passports in Thailand and Malaysia. Quoting the award
winning journalist Stuart Ramsay, Ahmed highlights that the Turkish
authorities were “certifying passports” of would-be ISIL fighters
at Turkey-Syrian border posts. This can only mean that Turkish
officials were fully aware of the flow of militants pouring into
Syria.
Furthermore,
there is evidence that some Turkish officials have certain links to
high-ranking ISIL members, he notes, citing an unnamed Western
official familiar to intelligence sources on the matter.
