Besides Isil abducted many Turkish diplomats, truck drivers and threatened to destroy a Turkish tomb in syria, doesnt make sense either if they were paid and run by Turkey as you claim.
That's why I suggested you to read "Blowback."
Why did the same freedom fighters that the US used to train came later to blew up the Twin Towers? Think.
I am very well aware of what is going on with the truck drivers and diplomats. That's basically why I made an analogy with the concept of blowback.
And I know certain segments in Turkey are and have been against any military adventurism and I respect and support those, inlcuding those who sacrificed in Gezi Park Revolution. They elicit my respect. But, amazingly, half of those who vote voted for a reactionary party with a terrible terrible foreign policy.
Definitely Turkey is not supporting isil.
Al-monitor:
"“The comparison with the terrible mistakes made by Western intelligence agencies during the Afghan war against the Soviets is startling. We supported al‑Qaeda, which later turned on us. Thanks to this policy, Pakistan now faces a permanent terrorist insurgency bordering on civil war.
It is very likely that Turkey (and probably Jordan and Saudi Arabia) will face the same problem in due course as a result of the Syrian backlash. Meanwhile, jihadists have found a new terror base from which they can mount attacks on the West. All this was predictable at the start of the Syrian war — indeed, President [Bashar al-] Assad warned of it.”
I am not including the Turkish people here (majority of them since there are Turkish fighters inside ISIS), but, certainly, Turkey is a state sponsor of terrorism, and the guilt falls entirely on the government.
Here is a educated comment by a reader under the article I quoted above (He is most likely from Turkey since Al-Monitor has a large Turkey base and many famous analysists from Turkey publish there):
"Davutoglu is by far the most inept Foreign Minister Turkey has ever seen. His policies are going to lead Turkey to the most instability possible. When in 2011-2012, he was going on and on about war with Syria, yet, he secretly was arming the most radical rebels, at the expense of hijacking the original protest movements that started in Syria. Yet, he tries to play innocent about arming groups like the Nusra Front and now the ISIL. What about trying to whine about "national security" being sacrificed, because people who know the plans of the Suleyman Shah false flags. Or what about how now AKP is trying to be a voice against terrorism, but people know how ISIL crosses through Turkey's borders. I am sick and tired of Davutoglu's constant miscalculations, trying to always act like as if he is always righteous, overreacting all the time, instead of being calm when crisis hits, and contradicting himself. Just because FM Davutoglu has a PhD, does not hide the fact that he acts as childish as a 4th grader."
First thing the Turkish people should do is to bring that FM down and put there some wise statesman such as (if his health allows) the former President. Davutoglu is way too much ideological and lives in fantasyland. The terorrists that Syria seems to be eliminating and pushing away from their nation is putting their gaze on Turkey. And they are very fierce and ruthless brothers of Turkish government.
Agreed!
