I'm starting to fall in love with your brain. My thoughts exactly again.You've got something here. There is definately a consortium orchestrated by elites, thereby mass media in the West against Turkey - heavily assisted by Gulen organization + PKK.
Now the question we've gotta ask ourselves are the following:
1: Are these people truly interested in the injustices occuring in Turkey. If so, where were they when extreme injustices occured during the 80s and 90s when PKK literally slaughtered thousands of civillians. Is it because Turkey is more influential, powerful and flexing its muscles now that their focus gained so much traction in recent years.
2: When AKP came to power in 2003, with huge assistance and help from the West + Zionists, and when he closely followed their interest why were they huge fan of him? What happened in 2008-2009, and especially after those years that made them antagonize and attempt to make a mockery of Turkey+Erdogan. Because of his despotic behaviours or because first time in decade we actually used our interests and advantages (like the Syrian refugee crisis) to hold leverage over Europe and forced them our ways.
Buddy it's really simple if you ask me. Whether you are a fan of Erdogan or not, especially if you are a patriot like most of us, then you should ask yourself the following, would countries like France or Germany truly wish a Turkey leveraging these countries. Would they welcome economical and strategic powerful competitors that can potentially harm their markets in many fields? Let's face the truth, every country first and foremost works for their national interest, at the behest of other countries and peoples. Every powerful country currently is a testament to that, count in the Cold War as well. You can call it social darwinism, international realism etc. Recently it was revealed that VW works with powerful lobbies in Europe and worldwide to halt electric cars investments in Europe. Why? Because they would outcompete them, when people realize the cost, both invironmentally and economically far outweigh the fuel cars. This is pure simple capitalism at its best
Naturally they wouldn't welcome a new player. WW1 occured because Germany up till the War started challenging England's dominance in production and imperialistic ambitions. The death of the Archduke in Serbia was just the perfect excuse.
Our nation needs intelligent, competent, realistic, confident leaders. Currently AKP, however much disliked, even by me, are the best candidates. I don't think the religious stuff is important, if CHP had a brainteam like the AKP i wouldn't hesitate a second, but they don't. Either we continue institutionalizing with these guys, or we start from scratch again with another group, potentially facing failure again.
What i'd like to add, which is kind of off-topic though, is that unfortunately many oppositions in Turkey are simply hopping on the anti-Erdogan hate train pure out of spite. Sure Erdogan has its flaws, and one very big mistake that made me really dislike him; the Syria policy, but if the leader of my country, no matter the political party, is under unseen intense fire from so many fronts, excuse me, but then i will start to wonder what all of this foreign obsession and pure blind hate regarding my leader is all about and whether there is a higher motive or not. I'd rather take the 'risk' and defend Erdogan than to join this massive internal and external coalition that stinks from all sides against him and then potentially 10-20 years later say 'well, under Erdogan it wasn't that bad at all, look at us now'.
