Now a cold wind blows from Israel towards Turkey.What is the reason behind the start of a diplomatic attack at this time? Why make this invitation at the cost of creating questions with Israel, the U.S. and even in international finance circles? The answers lies deep within the corridors in Ankara.
The answer is this:
- Ahead of the elections in the U.S., Bush is finalizing all the necessary plans for an attack aimed at Iran….
Turkey is receiving information along these lines from Washington. In other words, they could strike at anytime…
With such an apparent likelihood, Turkey faces an extremely difficult dilemma. The scenario is this:
-Should the United States go ahead with an attack they will again want permission to fly Turkish air space. A more intensified embargo demand could be asked. What would Turkey do in such a situation? This is the big question… Turkey experienced a huge crisis of confidence with the United States after it refused to allow the U.S. to cross into Iraq through Turkish borders. In a repeat of this situation, the government could find itself in an extremely difficult situation. The government is using all its strength and doing all it can to avoid finding itself in this situation and is working to “support Iran to avoid war”.
- Is it possible to be successful?
- It doesn’t look likely…
WAS SAAKASHVILI SO FOOLISH?
If you look at it from this angle, even the Georgian conflict can gain a different meaning… Because the following question is being still being asked:
- Why did Georgia’s president, Mikheil Saakashvili undertake this action against Russia? If he is not just being foolish, what was the motivation behind this strife?
The known facts are these:
- Ahmadinejad previously made a very important visit to Armenia. The U.S. watches closely the growing closeness of Russia-Armenia-Iran relations. Energy, in particular the alternative Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, creates unease in Russia and Iran. Because this route will be opened towards Mediterranean countries, with Israel is at the top of the list... Maybe Russia plans to use Georgia as an alternative base in response to a strike on Iran, as the U.S. uses Turkey as an alternative. Russia wanted to show Georgia its military force, and send the message it is its “back yard” or that will not be “used to launch attacks on Iran”…
Is this possible? Yes... And it is for this reason Turkey finds itself at the center of a state of “war readiness”… And if Turkey is unsuccessful in dissuading Ahmadinejad, difficult and heated days lie ahead for Turkey…
