Operation Featherweight: Month 25, Week 1, Day 6.



On Thursday July 21st (21/7/16) the apparently now 61 nations dedicated to the defeat of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and associated groups met for a conference in Washington D.C, US.

This conference really began on the Tuesday (19/7/16) with US Secretary of State John Kerry's visit to the UK for a meeting with Arab Gulf states. There was also a day of pre-meetings on the Wednesday (20/7/16).

This was the first such conference of the ISIL coalition since the June 12th (12/6/16) terror attack on the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, US and the July 1st (1/7/16) terror attack against the Holey Artisan Bakery in Bangladesh. As a result the issue of my personal safety and security was legitimately on the agenda.

So on Wednesday July 20th (20/7/16) news broke that a Royal Air Force (RAF) serviceman had been involved in a security incident at the RAF Marham base in Norfolk, UK. 

Whilst out jogging the serviceman was accosted by two men Middle-Eastern/South Asian appearance who threatened him with a knife and attempted to drag him into a waiting car. Fortunately the serviceman fought back and the attackers fled.

Obviously I don't want to discourage anyone from helping the police with their enquiries into this incident. However I suspect that if they were desperate to arrest the individuals involved the Security Service MI5 would know exactly where to look.

This is the type of security issue that I have to be acutely aware of. After all if ISIL can launch lonewolf knife attacks against train passengers in Wurzberg, Germany or Church goers in Normandy, France they can certainly launch a knife attack against me in my home.

The problem is made more acute by the fact the area in which I live has a very high Muslim population that is both British born and recently migrated from countries such as Pakistan and Somalia. The main street running through my local area was recently featured on the national news at the street in all of Britain most affected by the influx of irregular migrants/refugees.

There was actually a series of incidents during the Battle of Kobane in the early part of 2015 when a group of local British Muslim men of the profile of ISIL recruits took to gathering outside my house in what seemed like an attempt at intimidation. Fortunately a bunch of Kurdish refugees came and chased them off.

Obviously the fact my own government has been trying to kill me for much of the last 16 years means that this is the type of threat I'm attuned to and used to living with. As always though legal access to firearms and other protective equipment would be a huge reassurance.

The other security headache facing me comes from US President Barack Obama and his Black Lives Matter thugs. This really dates back to 2013 when I was heavily involved in Rihanna's Diamonds World Tour.

Somewhere along the way global black culture has come to mean Black American trash culture. 

So during 2013 the UK's black population really started to side with Obama and Rihanna against me for the simple reason they're black and I'm white. This is despite the fact I was largely working to protect Rihanna from both her own and Obama's stupidity.

Since then Obama has really embraced the idea frequently urging Britain's black population to harass and intimidate me through his calls for them to; "Find Their Park." I live very close to a public park. So close in fact people have been known to confuse my private property with that public area.

So on Tuesday July 19th (19/7/16) someone urged members of London's black community to gather for an illegal music festival in Hyde Park. 

In order to throw a public music festival you first need to get permission from the landowner along with a safety certificate and public liability insurance to make sure no-one if hurt or killed during the party.

The gathering in Hyde Park had none of those things so the police moved into confiscate the sound system and disperse the crowd. This prompted a riot in which I think several police officers were injured including one who was stabbed in the hand. 

This riot really started around 19:00 (GMT) and with shops being looted on near-by Oxford Street was still going on as I went to bed around 01:00 (GMT).

With rioters chanting "Black Lives Matter!" as they hurled bricks at the police this really helped to highlight the security problem that Obama presents both to me personally and the UK in general when he riles up his thugs and urges them to find their park.

Knowing that this topic would be on the agenda the US prepared its defence.

On Wednesday July 20th (20/7/16) video was released of an incident on Monday July 18th (18/7/16) in south Florida. The video showed an unarmed black man - Charles Kinsey - being shot in the leg by police as he was lying on the ground with his hands up. 

Let's just say that this isn't the first time I've heard a story about someone being shot in the leg.

At the time he was shot Kinsey claims that he was protecting a white/hispanic man with Autism as he was having a crisis and threatening suicide. Putting aside the Kinsey scale on human sexuality one of the stranger rumours told about me is that I suffer from Autism. 

Therefore this was the US trying to argue that Obama and his Black Lives Matter thugs weren't posing a threat to me but trying to protect me.

The fact that the incident was so obviously staged also prompted discussion about the July 6th (6/7/16) shooting of Philando Castile.

It is really my next task but the big development in Syria since the end of June/start of July is that Syrian government forces have mounted a successful operation to liberate the Castello Road which runs from Aleppo City through Azaz to the Turkish border. 

As a result the liberation of Castello Road cuts the last main supply route to ISIL and ISIL affiliated fighters in Aleppo City.

The shooting of Philando Castile during a traffic stop came just as the operation to liberate Castello Road was gathering momentum.

The way that his girlfriend Diamond Reynolds chose to livestream his death on Facebook rather than allow the police to administer medical aid was extremely reminiscent of the way that Larossi Abballa livestreamed his murder of two police officers in Magananville, France on June 13th (13/6/16). Minnesota where the Castile shooting occurred is famous for providing US recruits to ISIL.

Therefore the Castile shooting is something the US authorities would want to investigate in great detail. However the Obama administration is continuing to block such an investigation.

With the US' defence failing to find traction on Thursday July 21st (21/7/16) they were forced into making a dramatic admission.

This took the form of an American Airlines flight to Philadelphia being evacuated at Palm Beach airport on south Florida following a leak of hydraulic fluid.

The admission being made was that Hillary Clinton's faction within the Democrat Party had leaked sensitive information about my plans for July 1st (1/7/16) to ISIL. This allowed ISIL to plan and carry out the Dhaka terror attack in which 24 people were murdered.

With Hillary Clinton having leaked sensitive information to ISIL there can be no suggestion that she can become elevated to the role of US President and therefore Commander-in-Chief of the fight against ISIL.

With the Democratic National Convention (DNC) scheduled to open in Philadelphia on Monday July 25th (25/7/16) the admission demanded that the US took immediate action to prevent Hillary Clinton being nominated.

With no action being forthcoming from the US the UK decided to turn up the pressure in the very early hours of Monday (25/7/16) morning.

This took the form of a shooting at a reggae themed pool party in Headingly in Surrey, UK. That obviously carried with it connotations of the McKinney, Texas, US pool party that was broken up by the police on June 5th (2015). Much to the chagrin of Obama's Black Lives Matter thugs.

The flyer for the Surrey pool party urged people to head to the Bungalow. My much disputed grandmother's house which sits inside my residential compound is in fact a bungalow. The organisers of the party are based in Streatham, London where I went to school. The murdered man lived in Coulsdon which is really the next borough over from where I live.

As such the entire incident demonstrated the level of risk I'm faced with every time the Democrats call their thugs to the streets.

In response the US decided to set Hillary Clinton and the Democrats an integrity test.

This took the form of a mass shooting at a black nightclub in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, US. The Club Blu Bar & Grill where the shooting took place has a very Mardi Gras, New Orleans, Louisiana theme to it.

The integrity test being to see whether Hillary Clinton and the Democrats would rally in protest about these black people being shot as they rallied following the lawful killing of Alton Sterling by police in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on July 5th (5/7/16)].

Or would Hillary Clinton and the Democrats simply remain silent. 

Thus proving that they're only interested in Black Lives when it gives them an opportunity to rally the mob to prevent Hillary Clinton going to prison for those 110 offences of espionage against the US.

It almost goes without saying that Hillary Clinton and the Democrats failed that integrity test.

The outgoing Chair of the Democrat Party Debbie Wasserman-Schultz did try and raise the issue of Club Blu shooting prior to the start of the convention but was shouted down. This seemed to lead to her being replaced at the podium by Stephanie Rawlings-Blake – the Mayor of Baltimore synonymous with the Freddie Grey case and the riots that followed.

Wasserman-Schulz had already announced that she would be resigning at the end of the DNC to be replaced by the aggressively anti-police Donna Brazile. This was driven by the work of the mythical computer hacker “Guccifer 2” which is simply a device for the Democrats to provide the media with controversial information.

It’s the equivalent of; “I didn’t make those offensive comments. My Twitter account was hacked.”

It was so predictable that Hillary Clinton and the Democrats would fail it led some to protest against setting yet another integrity test. Particularly one that would last for four days at a time when new terror attacks are occurring on a near daily basis.

Lead amongst the protests was Japan. After all alongside Italy which saw 9 of its citizens killed the 7 Japanese dead meant that Japan was the main victim of the July 1st (1/7/16) Dhaka terror attack that Hillary Clinton helped ISIL organise.

Japan's protest took the form of Tuesday's (26/7/16) knife massacre at a care home for the disabled in Sagamihara near Tokyo in which 19 people were killed - the worst such massacre in Japan's modern history.

The fact that this was a knife attack obviously destroys Hillary Clinton and the Democrats oft repeated mantra that the only way to stop such massacres is stricter gun control.

Due to the 110 offences of espionage against the US along with the fact that she'd provided sensitive information to ISIL leading to a terror attack Hillary Clinton will never obtain security clearance to handle sensitive information from the US' allies. Let alone the US government itself

As such if by some miracle Hillary Clinton is elected President her inability to obtain security clearance will provide an impediment to her actually taking up office. As such the Vacancy & Disability clause 6 of the US Constitution will apply.

I think it's quite clear that at least one Japanese thinks the Disabled should be killed off sooner rather than later.

Despite these clear warnings the Democrats pressed ahead and nominated Hillary Clinton as their candidate on Tuesday (26/7/16). Effectively declaring that they will not be contesting the 2016 Presidential election.

Prior to DNC rollcall vote in which Hillary Clinton was formally nominated an unmarked police car crashed into a restaurant in Kentish Town. This is a very Jewish and very Irish area of London, UK where I hear they do a fantastic waltz.

The particular restaurant the police car crashed into was an artisanal pizza restaurant. A clear reminder of Hillary Clinton's role in organising the July 1st (1/7/16) Dhaka terror attack.

As such I think it should be obvious to all that a Hillary Clinton Presidency will destroy the US' standing in the World in a way Donald Trump never could.

Another Day. Another Terror Attack.

Over the past two weeks Europe has experienced a rash of Islamist terrorist attacks.

This began on July 14th (14/7/16) when Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel drove a truck through revellers celebrating Bastille day in Nice, France. He murdered 84 people.

On July 18th (18/7/16) Riaz Khan Ahmadzai (AKA; "Muhammad Riyad") - a 17 year old refugee from Afghanistan - attacked passengers aboard a train in Wurzburg, Bavaria, Germany with an axe. He seriously injured four people.

On July 22nd (22/7/16) Ali David Sonboly - a German/Iranian dual national - went on a shooting rampage in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. He murdered 9 people.

On July 24th (24/7/16) an as yet named illegal immigrant from Syria who'd been refused refugee status attacked passers-by with a machete on the street in Reutlingen, Baden-Wuttemberg, Germany. He murdered a pregnant Polish woman.

Also on July 24th (24/7/16) another illegal immigrant from Syria who been refused refugee status attempted to carry out a suicide bombing at an open air music festival attended by some 2,500 in Ansbach, Bavaria, Germany. Having been denied entry to the festival he detonated his bomb at a near-by bar. Fortunately he only succeeded in killing himself although he did injure 15.

In response to all of these attacks I've spoken at length about how Al Qaeda have long had a strategy of using terrorism to destroy the secular space in which Muslims and non-Muslims coexist. Due to the growing community tensions caused by the migrant crisis the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) seem to have adopted this tactic having identified a fracture point they can exploit.

Yesterday (25/7/16) the was yet another terrorist attack. This time in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, Normandy, France. 

Here two attackers burst into a Catholic Church taking a Priest, three Nuns and two Church goers hostage at knifepoint. They filmed themselves forcing the 84-year Priest to kneel before the altar before beheading him and sending the video to ISIL. They were then both shot and killed by police marksmen.

ISIL view it as their mission to purge the World of everybody who does not follow their perversion of Islam. This includes Sunni Muslims put particularly Shia Muslims, Christians, Druze and Yezidi. As such the spectacle of ISIL fighters storming into a Church and beheading Priests and slaughtering Christians is an all too common one.

However if people in the west were being told the truth of what is happening in Syria, Iraq and beyond there would be riots through the streets and western politicians would be torn limb from limb. As such a huge effort has gone in from both the media and politicians to hide the horrors of the Middle-East from the public.

With it being impossible to hide the beheading of a Priest in a Church in France yesterday's terror attack was extremely shocking to people who don't know that this is happening everyday and has been happening every day for the past five years. 

It was intended to be seen as a direct threat to Europe's Christian's and its secular way of life by Muslims. The idea being to create a backlash by non-Muslims against Muslims. Particularly Muslim immigrants.

The attack also seemed to be a personal one against the Pope - the head of the Catholic Church.

The Catholic Church is currently holding its biannual youth camp. 

This sees young Catholics from around the World gather together for what is essentially a weeklong social festival. It is often dubbed; "The Catholic Woodstock." The highlight is World Youth Day which is today where the Pope attends the festival to address the crowds.

This year the World Youth Camp is being held in Krakow, Poland.

The European Union's (EU) ability to respond to the migration crisis has been severely hampered by two of its members - Hungary and Poland - refusing to implement an agreement that would see refugees shared out in quotas amongst member states. 

The Polish Law & Justice Party (PiS) government of Beata Syzdlo in particular has made it quite clear that it does not want to accept a single Muslim refugee because it wants to preserve Poland's pure, Catholic identity from which the party takes much of its power.

The Pope - as the head of the Catholic Church - has much disagreed with the Polish government on this point. So when PiS has said that you cannot allow Muslim refugees into a Catholic nation the Pope responded by taken Muslim refugees into his home in the Vatican City - the ultimate Catholic nation.

As a result the Pope's trip to Poland today for World Youth Day was always going to be extremely tense. Unusually for a supposedly Catholic party the PiS are refusing the recognise the Pope's visit as an official state one with all the respect that affords.

Therefore yesterday's attack on a Catholic Church coming so soon after the terrorist murder of a Polish woman seems intended to weaken the Pope and strengthen the PiS' position on the migration issue.

After all by creating a weakness in the EU's response to ISIL the PiS are ISIL's biggest ally in Europe.

It also seems to have been an attack on me personally.

In response to the June 12th (12/6/16) terror attack against the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, US I spoke about the psychological effects of traumatic shock that occur during this type of situation. Using an example from my own life I mentioned an older Irish woman who'd been in a Catholic Church when the congregation was attacked by a naked swordsman. I mentioned this again in response to the Wurzburg train attack.

Therefore by carrying out what was effectively a sword attack on a Catholic Church I think the attackers were also trying to trigger off some sort of traumatic memory in me. The hope being that would take me out of the game preventing me from going after ISIL.

As such I should probably explain. I wasn't actually in the Church during the sword attack. In fact it was the way that this woman was randomly telling me about this guy's penis that had me nodding my head and thinking; "Yep. That's traumatic shock."

In terms of the psychological effects of this relentless parade of slaughter obviously it does have an effect on me.

Although it wasn't directly linked to ISIL the July 7th (7/7/16) terror attack in Dallas, Texas made for an extremely long and unpleasant day from me. This really lasted until the memorial service on July 13th (13/7/16). I really then had one day off before the Nice attack. It's been non-stop since then.

So even as far back as Saturday (23/6/16) was scheduling yesterday evening to go off an deal it. For obvious reasons I don't to share my particular process but generally it is just a matter of accepting that these things do affect you and coming to peace with it.

I could really have done without the mother of Sandra Bland appearing at the Democratic National Convention yesterday though. After all she is extremely offensive to anyone with knowledge of genuine Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

The attack in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray was very obviously the work of a small, largely self-directed ISIL cell. 

The reason why it was so quickly indentified at as such is that one of the attackers - 19 year old Adel Kermiche - had previously served 10 months in prison for attempting to join ISIL in Syria. At the time of the attack he was released from prison on license/parole and was wearing an electronic monitoring tag.

The fact that despite being a known ISIL sympathiser Kermiche was free to commit the attack has obviously prompted a backlash against the French security services. However I should point out that cases such as these put them in an extremely difficult position.

When we talk about Muslim citizens being a nations first line of defence against terror we are not being politically correct. It is simply the truth.

The reason why the French authorities knew that Kermiche was an ISIL sympathiser is because his own mother and sister informed them that they were worried he was becoming radicalised. If the French authorities react to that by putting the son in prison for the rest of his life no other mother is going to come forward.

This will create a situation like the one you have in Molenbeek, Brussels, Belgium. Here not only don't local residents inform the authorities of members of the community who have become radicalised they actively shelter terrorists as they did with Saleh Abdeslam. As Lahouaiej Bouhlel demonstrates it is the threats the authorities don't know about that are the most dangerous.

That said though in other cases where people have been convicted of serious terrorist offences that haven't been uncovered by community intelligence should remain in prison until ISIL have been defeated. Those who have already been released from prison should be immediately recalled indefinitely as a threat to society.

What I am much more concerned about though is the French government's failure to combat the threat of ISIL at the international diplomatic and political level.

On May 10th 2016 (10/5/16) Russia tabled a United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolution to designate both the Islamic Movement of the Freemen of the Levant/Harakat Ahrar ash-Sham al-Islamiyya (Ahrar al-Sham) and the Army of Islam/Jaish al-Islam (JAI) as terrorists groups.

These two groups are key parts of the Al Qaeda led Army of Conquest/Jaish al-Fatah (JAF) coalition in Syria. They regularly fight alongside ISIL - particularly during the spring of 2015 when the JAF's Northwestern offensive was co-ordinated with ISIL's capture of Palmyra. Therefore the designation of Ahrar al-Sham and JAI as terror groups is vital to the defeat of ISIL.

However France along with the US and the UK vetoed the Russian resolution. This allows nations such as Turkey and Saudi Arabia to continue supplying Ahrar al-Sham and JAI with weapons which are then passed on to ISIL. It also grants unwarranted legitimacy to ISIL claim that they are simply protecting Muslims from oppression.

Although I need to deal with it as a separate issue the big development over the past few weeks in Syria is that the Syrian government has succeeded in liberating the Castello Road. 

Along with Highway 214 which is a crucial part of what I term "Erdogan's Pocket" or "Garvaghy Road." It's liberation cuts the supply line between Turkey and Army of Conquest forces occupying Aleppo City. As such the liberation of the Castello Road is a massive step forward in the efforts to force ISIL and their associates from Syria entirely.

Curiously though on Monday (25/7/16) the UNSC held a session on the liberation of Castello Road. Rather than celebrating this victory the French Ambassador joined with the US, the UK and others condemning this defeat of the terrorists. They then called on the Syrian government to hand the terrorists supply line back to them.

So if ISIL is at war with France as French President Hollande said in response to the Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray attack he really needs to hurry up and decide which side he's on;

France's or ISIL's. 

17:05 on 27/7/16 (UK date).

The Munich, Reutlingen and Ansbach Terror Attacks. Pt.2

This should be read as a direct continuation of Part 1; http://watchitdie.blogspot.in/2016/07/the-munich-reutligen-and-ansbach-terror.html

In that part I explained how Ali David Sonboly had attacked a target that the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) had called on their supporters to attack in June 2016. I also explained how Sonboly attack targeted ISIL's main objectives of the Olympics and community tensions in Europe caused by the migration crisis.

As such it should be clear that Sonboly's attack bore all the hallmarks of an ISIL-style Islamist terror attack.

However the German government really doesn't want to admit that it has failed to uphold its part of social contract which obligates it to protect its citizens. As a result it immediately went into cover-up mode.

As part of this effort much has been made of the fact that Sonboly suffered from the sort of mental health problems associated with troubled teenagers in many western societies.

Firstly I should point out that this is exactly the profile of an ISIL recruit.

Unlike Al Qaeda which has historically been very committed to liberating the holy Mosques of Mecca from the Saudi Monarchy ISIL is not an Islamic group. Instead it is a nihilistic group.

Simply put nihilism is a philosophy of despair and destruction. For ISIL all these grand claims such re-establishing the Islamic Caliphate etc are simply a cover for the appalling violence they hope will help save them from their own sense of worthlessness.

Mohamed Lahouaie-Bouhlel who carried out the June 14th (14/7/16) in Nice, France had a similar history of being treated for psychological problems.

Likewise probably ISIL's most famous member Mohammed Emwazi (AKA: "Jihadi John") had a long history of depression and psychosis for which he was under a doctors care prior to his departure to Syria. In his emails to the Daily Mail newspaper Emwazi spoke extensively about his psychological problems in an attempt to garner sympathy.

As for the claim that Munich couldn't possibly be an Islamist terror attack because Muslims were amongst the victims. In Nice 1 in every 3 people killed were Muslims. In Saturday's (23/7/16) attack in Kabul, Afghanistan 100% of the victims were Muslims. Today 17 people were killed in an ISIL suicide bombing in Khalis, Iraq. They were all Muslims.

Secondly this overlap between the nihilism of ISIL and the light nihilism of teenage rebellion is something that has been talked about on the fringes of anti-ISIL efforts for a while now. So much so it's even appear as a storyline in the US TV Show "NCIS."

Made primarily for the syndication market it is extremely easy to mock NCIS. They have to churn out 24 episodes a year. Each one of those episodes has to be almost completely self-contained with a crime being committed, a crime being investigated and a crime being solved. All within the space of 40 minutes plus commercials. In those episodes sex and violence can only be alluded to and swearing is absolutely forbidden.

Despite these laborious restrictions on their creativity in one or two episodes every season NCIS manages to absolutely smash it out of the park. The long running Mossad liaison officer character "Ziva David" certainly won them lots of extremely well connected fans.

The stand out moments from the current season of NCIS (Season 12) revolve around a mysterious Islamist terror group known simply as; "The Calling." Although no-one is named specifically their membership includes a character who is suspiciously like Kayla Mueller and they were formed in Syria before moving on to invade Iraq.

What The Calling does is troll some of the darker websites on the Internet such as pro-suicide sites, pro-Anorexia sites and what are generally termed "Hate Sites" - think 4Chan. There they recruit trouble teenagers and manipulate their angst to get them to carry out terror attacks without them realising that they are part of an Islamist terror group.

The advantage for The Calling of operating in this way is that local authorities dismiss these attacks as isolated acts by maladjusted teenagers rather than the work of a Islamist terrorist network. As a result they never bother investigate the wider Islamist terror network leaving it free to conduct ever more brutal attacks.

In the show the investigators liken The Calling's action to "Peter Pan's" attempts to recruit "The Lost Boys." You may remember that aside from the tribute to the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony featured a sequence dedicated to Peter Pan. Just before they did that strange sequence about healthcare policy.

To give you an idea of how much NCIS is talked about in certain circles although he did cut his visit short following the July 7th (7/7/16) Black Lives Matter terrorist attack in Dallas, Texas US President Obama could not leave before he visited a US Naval base in Rota, Spain. That Naval base features very heavily in the NCIS "Port-to-Port Killer" storyline.

The first episode in The Calling storyline was broadcast in the UK last Saturday (16/7/16). On the Monday (18/7/16) there was an incident in Jerusalem, Israel when a man was stopped from carrying a bomb in a backpack aboard a trolley bus/tram. I don't want to give away spoilers but if you've seen the NCIS episode that would seem extremely familiar.

Also much has been made of the strange spectacle of the Muslim son of a refugee screaming racist abuse about Muslims and refugees as he carried out his attack.

I should start by pointing out that this seems to have been extremely overstated. It seems mainly based on a video of an exchange between a member of the public and Sonboly as Sonboly was reloading his gun.

During that exchange the member of the public unleashed an impressive stream of verbal abuse against Sonboly. I recognise some of the German phrases used even if Google refuses to translate them for me. Therefore this seems likely to just be Sonboly reacting to the accusations being levelled against him by a man who was too far away to shoot.

The attack did though occur on the fifth anniversary of Norwegian neo-Nazi Anders Breivik's shooting rampage in 2011.

Seeming to bow to the Twitter campaign by much of the European left German police did initially claim that Sonboly was in possession of a copy of Breivik's manifesto although they have now retracted that claim. Likewise I understand the person who claimed to the media that Sonboly had used a picture of Breivik in his Snapchat profile has since been arrested as an accessory to the crime.

I think though there are two important details to remember about this aspect of the attack;

The first is that one of the primary objectives of the attack was to increase racial tension and division. Particularly by portraying the west as anti-Muslim in order to produce more western recruits for ISIL.

Secondly people - particularly terrorists - will lie to get what they want.

This issue of when we can call a terrorist attack a terrorist attack is an extremely hot issue within US politics. As with Black Lives Matter it also seems to have infected European politics.

Personally I think it goes back to Obama's fundamental misconception about ISIL.

Obama seems to genuinely believe that ISIL are some sort of heroic civil rights protest group battling the oppression of the Syrian government rather than a group of genocidal terrorists active from California in the US right across Europe, Africa and the Middle-East all the way into South-East Asia and even Australia.

The issue was really ignited by the February 10th 2015 (10/2/15) shooting in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Here three members of a Mosque that was under Federal investigation for links to ISIL were shot and killed in an unrelated parking dispute. Seizing on the opportunity to take some of the pressure of the counter-terrorism investigation off them the Mosque demanded that this be labelled an act of anti-Muslim terrorism.

Unfortunately Obama fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Now every time there's a terrorist attack or mass shooting anywhere in the World Obama supporters take to Twitter to tell us that because we're all homophobic, Islamaphobic racists whenever the attacker's a Muslim we label it terrorism, whenever the attacker's black we label them a thug but when the attacker's white we simply put it down to mental illness.

Obviously Obama supporters very much want to avoid a legitimate discussion about when attacks are classed as terrorism.

After all that would involve some very difficult questions about the December 20th 2014 (20/12/14) Black Lives Matter attack on police in New York City. The March 12th 2015 (12/3/15) Black Lives Matter attack on police in Ferguson, Missouri. The July 7th 2016(7/7/16) Black Lives Matter attack on police in Dallas, Texas. The July 17th (17/7/16) Black Lives Matter attack on police in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

It would also explain why there is absolutely no criminal case for Dylann Roof to answer over the events in Charleston, South Carolina on June 17th 2015 (17/6/15).

In short such a discussion could only conclude that Barack Obama and his associates have to go to prison for waging a terrorist war against the United States.

Apart from igniting those arguments I think that ISIL as a nominally Sunni organisation were hoping to boost recruitment by showing how the west refuse to open a terrorist investigation when the attacker is a Shia. Therefore as they will tell their recruits it is obvious that the west is backing Shia terrorists to destroy them. All good Sunnis must join ISIL to fight back.

Also I think that the terrorist were hoping that Germany would try and cover up Friday's (22/7/17) attack in Munich in the way that they did. The German's efforts so far have been so offensive to anyone with even half a brain cell that this will lead to a backlash further destroying the space in which Muslims and non-Muslims coexist and further destabilising Germany.

Based on the way they have behaved these past three days I think it is now going to be impossible for Germany to get Hungary and Poland to agree to a refugee deal. Therefore if Turkey decides to once again flood the continent with migrants the EU is - I believed the correct technical term is; "F*cked."

As I said on Sunday (24/7/16) the International Olympic Committee (IOC) held its meeting on whether to expel Russia from the 2016 Rio Olympics.

In an extremely rare display of moral courage they declined to expel Russia. However they failed to expel the IAAF from the Olympic movement and left other sports federations free to ban Russian competitors.

Despite this it took little more than an hour for Islamist terrorists to launch revenge attacks against Germany.

The first of these took place in Reutlingen in the north-western state of Baden-Wuttemberg.

Here a Syrian illegal migrant who had been refused refugee status twice but had not been taken into custody or deported launched a machete attack at a kebab stall. He injured two and murdered a pregnant Polish woman before being subdued and arrested. No doubt he's already out on bail.

The second of these took place in Ansbach which is in Bavaria.

Here another Syrian man who had been denied refugee status but had not been taken into custody or deported tried carrying a backpack bomb into an open air music festival attended by roughly 2,500 people that was being held in the town square.

Having been refused entry to the music festival for not having a valid ticket he instead chose to detonate his bomb at a near-by bar. Fortunately he only succeeded in killing himself although he did injure 15.

Following the attack in Reutlingen the German authorities did exactly what they did following the Munich attack. They denied that it was terrorist related and tried to make us feel bad for hurting the poor terrorists feelings.

Following the Ansbach attack the German authorities again tried to cover it up by denying that a bombing had taken place and trying to pass it off as a gas explosion. However the local Mayor called the Federal authorities out by confirming to the media that it was a bombing.

It has since been discovered that the prior to the bombing the attacker had recorded a video on his mobile phone which he sent to ISIL claiming the attack in the groups name declaring it to be an unspecified act of revenge.

Despite this the best the German authorities can come out with is a statement that' "We cannot rule out a link to ISIL at this time."

I find this strategy of denial and cover up on the part of the German authorities alarming and frankly dangerous.

I like to think that my hard-left credentials are beyond reproach. After all I have been banned from Germany because of them. However at this point even I think that the far-right and even the neo-Nazis are making a lot more sense than Merkel's government.

Imagine what people without my level of political experience are thinking.

The Munich, Reutlingen and Ansbach Terror Attacks.

I know. You try and take one day off.

On Friday (22/7/16) a gunman opened fire on passers-by outside a restaurant attached to a shopping mall in the Bavarian city of Munich in Germany. He killed 9 people and injured 27 others before turning the gun on himself.

The attacker has since been identified as Ali David Sonboly. An 18 year Shia Muslim with German and Iranian dual citizenship. This of course cuts straight to the core of the violence that has plagued the Middle-East region and beyond these past five years;

A Saudi Arabian Monarchy that takes its legitimacy from Sunni Islam trying to exterminate all of the Shia Muslims so it doesn't have to make democratic reforms within Saudi Arabia.

It also links in directly with the June 12th (12/6/16) terror attack on the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, US.

As with Sonboly the attacker there - Omar Mateen - was the son of an immigrant and held dual citizenship of both Afghanistan and the US. Although he may not have realised it the father Mir Seddique Mateen worked for the CIA in a effort to limit Iranian influence within Afghanistan.

That theme was continued the following day (23/7/16) when the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) carried out twin suicide bombings against a protest march in Kabul, Afghanistan killing 80 and wounding 230.

The protest had been organised by members of Kabul's Hazara community. The third largest ethnic group in Afghanistan the Hazara are overwhelmingly Shia Muslims and are frequently discriminated against by other, predominately Sunni ethnic groups.

Saturday's protest was against plans to route a power grid project around Hazara areas in an effort to deny the ethnic group access to electricity. With electricity not being restored to USAF base Incirilk in Turkey until Saturday evening that was an extremely contentious topic at the time.

Therefore as with the Orlando attack one of the main motives behind the Munich attack was the hope that at the mere mention of Iran the American right's well-honed reflex would kick in. They would accuse Iran of being a state sponsor of the attack and use that to re-impose the sanctions on Iran that have done so much damage to the region these past five years.

The particular restaurant attacked in Munich was a branch of McDonalds. This of course is a world famous symbol of both America and American globalisation. As such it is frequently threatened by Islamist terrorists.

It was specifically named as a target by ISIL in a June 2016 when the group called for its followers to attack McDonalds restaurants - particularly ones attached to shopping malls.

McDonalds is also a longterm, key sponsor of the Olympics.

The particular shopping mall attacked in Munich was on the site of the 1972 Munich Olympics.

This famously had to be stopped when eight members of the Palestinian "Black September" terror group stormed the athletes village immediately murdering two Israeli athletes. A further nine Israel athletes were held hostage for 18 hours before they along with the terrorists and a German police officer were killed during a botched rescue operation.

The 1972 Munich Olympics represents the worst single loss of life the Olympic movement has ever suffered. The opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics which marked the 40th anniversary of the Munich massacre featured a portion in tribute to the attack in which Emile Sande alongside the Akram Khan dance company performed "Abide With Me."

The Munich massacre saw the German police create their elite Grenzschutzgruppe 9 der Bundespolize (GSG9) counter-terrorism force and France create their similar Groupe d'intervention de la Gendarmerie nationale (GIGN) as a direct response to the attack. Even to this day the first priority in any security plan for any Olympics is avoiding a repeat of the Munich massacre.

Friday's (22/7/16) massacre in Munich came of course two weeks to the day before the scheduled opening ceremony of the 2016 Summer Olympics to be held in Rio de Janerio, Brazil. 

It also occurred hours before the start of the so-called "Anniversary Games" being held in London, UK. 

Tediously threatening to become an annual event this marks the anniversary of the 2012 London Olympics. It is held in the same stadium that Emile Sande and the Akram Khan dance company performed Abide With Me as a tribute to those killed in the 1972 Munich Massacre and a discussion point of the threat to come.

Therefore it seems clear that as with the G4S element of the Pulse nightclub attack Friday's terror attack was intended as an open threat to the 2016 Rio Olympics.

The really has its roots back in the summer of 2013. Due to Russia's opposition to ISIL Saudi Arabia decided that it should not be afforded the privilege of hosting the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. 

So in a meeting in July of 2013 between then Saudi intelligence Chief Prince Bander bin Sultan and Russian President Vladimir Putin Prince Bandar issued a simple threat; Either Russia drops its opposition to ISIL or Saudi Arabia will send ISIL fighters to attack the 2014 Sochi Olympics.

With Russia refusing to drop its opposition to ISIL in December 2013 Saudi Arabia starting making good on its threat with two days of terrorist bombings in Volgograd on December 29th (29/12/13) and December 30th (30/12/13). In total these killed 30 people and wounded 85.

However the international community more or less united to end the Saudi threat to the Sochi games. In compensation to Saudi Arabia the US overthrew the government of Ukraine creating ISIL's Shamali Province and we were all forced to sit through that tedious Pinkwashing campaign as the US tried to pretend that ISIL are defenders of gay rights.

Quite why the Rio games would be threatened in the same way as the Sochi games seems something of a mystery.

Since 2013 the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) under the leadership of British peer Sebastian Lord Coe have discovered that drug cheating is epidemic within their sport. However they have only been interested in accusations against Russia leading a campaign to have Russia expelled from the Rio Olympics.

Lord Coe himself is of course deeply mired in corruption allegations due to both his complete mishandling of cheating within athletics and his extremely profitable relationship with US sportswear giant Nike. 

While Russian athletes are to be banned from Rio the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has decided to validate the ethnic cleansing and genocide of ISIL by including a refugee team. 

The idea being to make ourselves good about ourselves for caring about refugees rather than disgusted at ourselves that we have allowed wars that have forced tens of millions to flee.

The IOC has also deemed it appropriate for Mourad Laachraoui to participate in Rio representing Belgium in Taekwondo. His brother Najim Laachraoui of course murdered 32 people in the name of ISIL in Brussels, Belgium on March 22nd 2016 (22/3/16).

As such the 2016 Rio Olympics are to be nothing more than a month long celebration of ISIL and their crimes. Therefore it is not something that I in good conscience will be able to associate myself with.

Far from threatening it though you would think that ISIL would be happy to revel in the glory of the crowds cheering them on.

There are though a few possibly explanations;

The first of these is that although the IAAF has already decided to ban all Russian athletes the IOC meeting on whether to ban all Russian competitors did not take place until yesterday (25/7/16). As such an attack on Friday (22/7/16) would be an opportunity for a bit of last minute intimidation to get the IOC to do ISIL's bidding.

Secondly ISIL like to portray themselves to their supporters as sort of rebellious outlaws fighting against the existing order. Having it revealed that they are in fact being backed by nation states such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the USA and the UK along with the IOC obviously damages their credibility. 

Therefore they have a great incentive to make it appear as though the Rio Olympics isn't a mass celebration of ISIL by the existing order.

Thirdly it could simply be a power play. By getting the IOC and others do exactly what ISIL wants and then attacking them anyway allows ISIL to show its complete dominance.

There is of course a forth option. After all under US President Obama the question has never been; "How Do We Defeat ISIL."

Aside from being the host of the 1972 Olympics Munich is also the capital of the German state of Bavaria. 

This sits in the south-east of the country right on the border with Austria. As such it really marks the end of the Balkan route for migrants travelling from Turkey across Europe to answer German executive leader (Chancellor) Angela Merkel's call to make Germany their new home.

As I explained following the July 14th (14/7/16) terror attack in Nice, France that killed 84 it is a longstanding objective of Al Qaeda to use terrorism to destroy the space in which Muslims and non-Muslims coexist. 

The community tensions created by the mass of predominately Muslim refugees makes these type of strategy seem particularly effective. Now they've had it explained to them slowly and clearly ISIL also seem to be adopting this tactic.

Community tensions in Bavaria are particularly high at the moment. 

During the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest Germany's neighbour Austria protested heavily over Merkel's mishandling of the migrant crisis. The joke doing the rounds was that if Merkel didn't sort it out quickly Bavaria would succeed from Germany and join Austria.

The cause of Germany's migrant problems are really twofold;

Firstly due to Germany's falling birthrate the nation really needs fresh migrants to prop up the base of its population pyramid. However rather than making that argument to voters for years Merkel's government has systematically abused the asylum process by which people apply for refugee status. For example refugee status is supposed to be a temporary measure. The Germans seem to be treating it as a route to citizenship.

Secondly in July of 2015 Angela Merkel held what Americans would refer to as a televised "Town Hall" event. Here a 14 year old Palestinian girl who'd been denied refugee status burst into tears as she asked Merkel to explain why. Merkel's robotic attempts to comfort the girl quickly made her a national laughing stock with people joking that Merkel was completely lacking in human emotion.

As an emotional backlash to these Internet memes Merkel suddenly decided to invite every migrant in the world to come and make Germany their home. As often happens with emotionally driven decisions Merkel didn't bother think through the problems this would create let alone draw up a plan of who to solve those problems.

The 1951 Convention on the Status of Refugees is very clear in the fact that the granting of refugee status to an asylum seeker is neither immediate not automatic.

Instead anyone illegally entering a country should be arrested for the offence of illegal entry and remanded in custody. Prior to their trial if they choose to make an asylum application their case must be investigated to see if they qualify for refugee status - the statutory defence to the offence. 

Not only must their cases be investigated to determine if they have a legitimate fear of persecution but also to determine if they have participated in or been members of any group that has participated in war crimes or crimes against humanity. Those who have are automatically excluded from  refugee status.

A prime example of the asylum system at work properly has actually cropped up in the past week. 

Following the July 15h (15/7/16) Turkish rising eight of those involved fled to Greece aboard a helicopter where they immediately applied for asylum. While their case is been investigated all eight have been remanded in prison. The case will hinge on whether they are fleeing persecution or legitimate prosecution for being members of an armed group waging war against the state.

Due to their longstanding attempts to use the asylum system to sneak in economic migrants through the backdoor and a failure to prepare for the waves of migrants Merkel invited Germany simply isn't abiding by the correct legal procedure. Instead it is treating all migrants as refugees and letting them freely wander the streets while their cases are being investigated.

This has unleashed a massive migrant related crime wave. Just at the start of July the German police were forced to admit that the influx of migrants had caused a massive increase in rapes and sexual assaults at public swimming pools. 

Far more alarmingly it is becoming increasingly clear that Germany's failure to properly enforce the asylum system is allowing ISIL fighters and other Islamist terrorists free access to the European Union (EU). 

Just last Sunday (17/7/16) there was the reported case of a Yezidi woman who'd been held as a sex slave by ISIL only to flee and claim asylum in Germany.  There she came face-to-face with one of the ISIL fighters who'd repeatedly raped her at a market in Baden where he was free to do as he pleased as a refugee.  

Despite this being reported to the police I am yet to hear that this ISIL fighter has been arrested.

Due to these daily horror stories and the German government's apparent refusal to protect its own citizens many Germans are now seeing the need to take matters into their own hands. 

Already this year there have been 45 arson attacks against buildings housing what the German authorities wrongly term "refugees" rather than "illegal migrants seeking refugee status." That is on top of 800 similar attacks in 2015 - a 400% increase on 2014.

Therefore it is extremely easy to see how ISIL or their associates would look at Germany - particularly Bavaria - and conclude that it is at boiling point making it a prime target for attack.

At around 17:05 on 25/7/16 (UK date) I have so much more to add after dinner it may well take the form of a seperate post.

Munich Sketch.

Yesterday (22/7/16) a gunman attacked passers-by at a shopping mall in Munich, Germany. He killed 9 people and injured 27 before turning the gun on himself.

The attacker who has not yet been formally named was an 18 year old German/Iranian dual national. He was identified because he had been entered into the Interpol database.

The German authorities are yet to confirm why they were so worried about him that they entered him into the Interpol database. However Interpol rarely investigate instances of petty theft.

Due to a busy week I have not yet addressed the previous Islamist terror attack in Germany this week. However these are the main points of yesterday's attack;

The attack began at a McDonalds restaurant. This is obviously a very large symbol of American globalisation and a target that both Al Qaeda and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) have frequently called on their supporters to attack. McDonalds are also a key sponsor of the Olympics.

This particular McDonalds was located in a shopping mall built on the site of the 1972 Munich Olympics. Nobody familiar with the history of modern terrorism needs the significance of the 1972 Munich Olympics explained to them.

The attack took place hours before the so-called "Anniversary Games" were held in London, UK. This annual event is part of the UK's inability to get over the fact that it hosted the 2012 London Olympics.

The attack took place two weeks to the day before the start of the 2016 Rio Olympics to be held in Rio de Janerio, Brazil.

So as with the recent Orlando terror attack this terror attack was very clearly intended as a threat against the Olympics.

However the only mystery is why ISIL would be threatening the Olympics.

After all with the Russians being banned while a team celebrating ethnic cleansing being allowed to compete the 2016 Olympics is going to be a month long celebration of ISIL. South Africa are even sending a competitor named; "Isis" is the hope she'll be given a free pass to the top of the medals table.

It must be said that the whole thing struck me as ISIL reaching that difficult teenage phase where they try and rebel against their parents.

The attack also took place in Bavaria.

This is effectively the end of the Balkan migrant route. As a result community tensions are extremely high.  Therefore this was clearly an attempt to worsen those tension in a similar way that last Thursday's (14/7/16) attack in Nice, France was intended to.

During the course of the attack the Muslim immigrant gunman made a series of bizarre anti-Muslim and anti-immigrants statements.

Coming on the fifth anniversary of Anders Brevik's attack in Norway this seemed to be a deliberate attempt to have the attacks portrayed to a Muslim audience as an anti-Muslim neo-Nazi terror attack.

However with the gunman then choosing to take his own life thus revealing his identity I think it's fair to assume we're not dealing with a brain surgeon.

Friday 22 July 2016

The Turkish Rising.

On July 15th (15/7/16) a small group of Turkish citizens rose up against the Islamist dictatorship of President/Prime Minister/Emperor Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

A devoted ally of Erdogan's the US had been warning him of the possibility of this rising for several weeks. As it began the US immediately leapt to Erdogan's aid granting him airtime on CNN to call supporters of his Justice & Development Party (AKP) to violently crush the rebellion.

Rather like the recent British vote to leave the European Union (EU) the crushing of the Turkish rising has created a situation where at the same time both everything and nothing seems possible. This has freaked a lot of people out. Particularly the Americans.

Immediately after the rising had been crushed Erdogan sent troops to seal of the USAF base Incirilk by shutting down the airspace, blocking access to and from the base and cutting off its power supply.

This effectively made hostages of the some 1,500 US troops stationed on the base and the 50-90 US nuclear warheads stored there. It also shut down air operations against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) by the US-led coalition Combined Joint Task Force: Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTFOIR).

So on Sunday (17/7/16) morning the US arranged for militants to storm a police station in Yerevan the capital of Turkey's neighbour Armenia.

Although this quickly developed into a hostage situation similar to the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege in London, UK the deployment of troops and armoured vehicles onto the streets of the capital caused many Armenians to worry they were in the grips of a Coup d'etat.

The relationship between Turkey and Armenia has long been a fractious one.

This really dates back to when Turkey invaded and occupied Armenia as part of the Ottoman Empire. A particularly contentious event was the Armenian Genocide of 1915 in which the Turks exterminated 1.5 million Armenians and expelled at least a further 1.5 million from Armenia under the Tehcir Law.

Of late international pressure has been growing on Turkey - and Erdogan in particular - to recognise the Armenian Genocide. More than 100 years after the genocide such a recognition will not lead to the prosecution of anyone involved or any compensation being paid to survivors.

Instead calls for Turkish recognition of its past crimes are intended to get to Erdogan to acknowledge that genocide is not an acceptable part of either foreign nor domestic policy and pledge to refrain from using it in the future.

Even before the US crushed the Turkish rising tension between Erdogan and its NATO allies over the Armenia genocide were already reaching boiling point. Particularly at Incirilk airbase.

On June 2nd (2/6/16) the German Parliament formally recognised the Armenian genocide and Turkey's role in it. Since then Turkey has been blocking German access to Incirilk in gross violation of NATO protocol.

As part of the dispute between Turkey and Armenia Turkey has long closed its land border between the two nations. Turkey has also firmly allied itself with Armenia's eastern neighbour Azerbaijan which has also closed its land borders with the country. This leaves majority Christian Armenia sandwiched between two majority Muslim nations.

Due to Armenia's alliance with Russia its neighbour to the north Georgia has also closed its border with Armenia. This means that Armenia is totally blockaded save for a small land border with Iran which itself up until recently was under international blockade.
 
The reason why the need for Erdogan to reject genocide as a policy tool has become so urgent of late is his support for the self-proclaimed genocidal organisation ISIL.

As part of his support for ISIL Erdogan has been working with Azerbaijan to reignite the Nagorno-Karabakh Region (NKR) conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

With both Armenia and Azerbaijan enjoying good relations with Russia a conflict between the two over the NKR puts immense pressure on Russia. Erdogan's ultimate ambition seems to use the NKR conflict as a justification for more international sanctions against Russia.

This would be a repeat of the way that Shamali Province was created in what used to be Ukraine to allow for sanctions to punish Russia for opposing ISIL.

The Yerevan siege is being run by the US in the same way the Khuzestan group who conducted the Iranian Embassy were being run by Saddam Hussein's Iraq.

However the siege itself is being conducted by the "New Armenia Public Salvation Front (NAPSF). They are calling for the release of one their founders Zhirayr Sefilian who was jailed in April 2016.

Sefilian's main aim is to establish an independent Christian Armenian state in NKR. Curiously Sefilian is not actually Armenian. He's Lebanese with his ancestors being forced to move from Armenia to Lebanon as part of the 1915 Genocide.

Therefore the US' purpose in launching the Yerevan siege was to swirl controversy in order to exert pressure on Erdogan to get him to lift the siege of Incirilk.

At the same time someone simply pointed out to Erdogan that shutting down CJTFOIR operations from Incirilk meant that those operations were shut down.

As a result CJTFOIR would no longer be enforcing the aerial protective dome that was established over ISIL's de facto Syrian capital of Raqqa as a condition of CJTFOIR being allowed to use Incirilk. That meant Russia aircraft would be free to attack ISIL in and around Raqqa and there was nothing Erdogan could do to stop them.

Needless to say later that day Erdogan re-opened the airspace around Incirilk and CJTFOIR were able to resume missions to protect ISIL from Russian attack. US access to and from the base however remains blocked and the power supply remains cut off.

At the moment probably the World's most famous Armenian is Kim Kardashian. Her husband Kanye West is currently engaged in some pointless showbiz squabble with Taylor Swift.

On Sunday (17/7/16) Kim Kardashian released some covertly recorded portions of a telephone conversation between West and Swift which Kardashian claimed proves that Swift is lying and responsible for the squabble.

This was the US' way of posing the question of whether anyone believes Erdogan's claim that the Turkish rising was carried out by Fethullah Gulen - a Turkish exile currently based in Pennsylvania, US.

In short we were being asked whether we believe that the covertly recorded telephone conversations that Erdogan is no doubt rushing to forge between Gulen and the rebels exist.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the name Fethullah Gulen is a conservative Sunni Muslim cleric who extensively backed Erdogan during his rise to power and the early days of his rule.

They fell out because Gulen is a secularist who believes that religion and politics should be kept separate. Erdogan however is an Islamist who believes that religion is the source of his political power. This led to Gulen being banished from Turkey by Erdogan in 2013.

Therefore "Gulenist" is sort of a Erdogan euphemism for any secularist.

To give you an idea of how lacking in credibility Erdogan's claim that the rising was a Gulenist conspiracy Erdogan has since claimed that it was driven by anger that he wasn't taking a tough enough line in his war against Turkey's Kurdish population.

At the same time Erdogan claimed - without a hint of irony - that Gulen is allied with the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).

Erdogan of course has previously claimed that all Kurds - regardless of where they are in the World - are members of the PKK and that the PKK is allied with ISIL. The fact that Syria's Kurdish population have been locked in fierce battle with ISIL for several years doesn't seem to bother Erdogan's logic in any way.

The US' decision to launch the Yerevan siege was of course a stupid one to begin with. However it has since gone on to cause further problems.

As with the Iranian Embassy siege which was ended by special forces after 6 days the Yerevan siege did not last for just a day. In fact it is still going on now.

In that time it has become something of a focal point for the NAPSF who have staged protests there on an almost daily basis. Wednesday's (20/7/16) were particularly violent with more than 50 people injured in clashes.

As a result concerns have begun to grow that simply saving Erdogan from the rising was not enough for the US.

In order to consummate the apparent deep love affair between Erdogan and Obama it now seems that the US is trying to stage a coup d'etat in Armenia just the same as it did in Ukraine to create Shamali Province. Again the US will try and blame its aggressive actions on Russia providing an excuse to further attack it for opposing ISIL.

So on Monday (18/7/16) an Islamist gunman staged a similar attack on a police station in Almaty, Kazakhstan killing four police.

Kazakhstan sits across the Caspian Sea from Azerbaijan and Georgia. It is probably most famous for being the country from which astronauts travelling to the International Space Station (ISS) are launched. This is probably the last remaining area of co-operation between the US and Russia following their split into the pro and anti-ISIL camps.

This area of co-operation seems to have been coming under sustained attack of late. On June 5th (5/6/16) a gang of Islamist terrorists robbed a gunshop in Aktobe before getting into a shoot-out with police in which six were killed. On June 8th (8/6/16) an Islamist terrorist opened fire on a children's camp also in Aktobe. Fortunately no-one was killed.

As such the police station attack in Almaty seemed intended to question the US' motives in Yerevan. It also invoked the previous day's terror attack on police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana as a way to question Obama's judgement.

After all Obama's inability to distinguish between the Nation of Islam and Islam does seem to explain both his apparent hatred of Muslims and his deep love affair with Erdogan and ISIL.

A nation that is particularly concerned by recent events in Turkey is Germany.

In the first instance that is because Germany has an extremely large Turkish diaspora population of around 3 million. Following Friday's events both supporters of Erdogan and supporters of the rising have taken to the streets in both Germany and Austria.

Just today the German police federation have warned that Erdogan could order his supporters in Germany to take to the streets to attack the German state just as he ordered them to the streets to crush the Turkish rising. That of course is of course on top of concerns that Erdogan could send Europe another little 'gift' such as the Molenbeek cell.

Secondly due to Angela Merkel's insane decision to instruct migrants to leave Turkey and head for Germany the Germans have been at the forefront of the migrant deal with Turkey. Erdogan's crushing of the rising obviously puts that deal in significant doubt.

So on Monday (18/7/16) Germany announced that it was criminally charging a train dispatcher for causing the February 9th (9/2/16) crash between two trains near Munich, Bavaria.

That crash of course formed part of the protest at the Munich Security conference over the US' continued support for Erdogan and his plans for a ground invasion of Syria. One train represented Erdogan's desire to flood Europe with ISIL fighters while the other represented European's desire not to be killed in terrorist attacks.

The fact that the train dispatcher was accused of putting everybody's lives in jeopardy because he was too busy playing a computer gamed seemed to be Germany attempting to blame me for starting the Turkish rising just jeopardising the migrant deal. However it could also be interpreted as a reference to how Obama has endangered all of Europe by helping Erdogan crush the rising.

The notion that I was responsible for the rising is of course a nonsense.

After all if I'd known that it was already underway would I have finished my post that evening promising that I'd be back after dinner to discuss renowned CIA agent Rihanna's role in warning Erdogan of the possibility of a rising?

Speaking of which at around 16:55 on 22/7/16 (UK date) I'll try and pick this up tomorrow.

Edited at around 15:15 on 23/7/16 (UK date) to add;

On Monday evening in Germany a man attacked passengers with an axe aboard a train in Wurzburg, Bavaria. This is obviously remarkably similar to the February 9th (9/2/16) train crash.

Also in talking about the June 12th (12/6/16) Pulse nightclub terror attack in Orlando, Florida, US I shared an example from my own life in which a man attacked a Church congregation with a sword. As such I'm entitled to look at the bloody pictures of the scene in Wurzburg and say; "Been there. Done that. Glad I don't have to again." 

On June 25th (25/6/16) I of course had a little incident with security at my home base. It was resolved by me giving someone the impression I was about to attack them with a sledgehammer/axe. My lawyer will assure you that at no point did I actually threaten them.

This of course was two days before Rihanna released her ode to Erdogan "Sledgehammer" on June 27th (27/6/16).

As such my first instinct was that the Wurzburg attack in which only 4 people were injured was just an example of spies mucking about. With the US staging the Yerevan siege in order to exert pressure on Erdogan it was simply the Germans staging a similarly confusing stunt to show the Americans the error of their ways.

Unfortunately it has since emerged that this was not the case. ISIL have since released a video of the 17 year Afghan refugee attacker Riaz Khan Ahmadzai (AKA; "Muhammad Riyad") pledging allegiance to the group and explaining he was about to carry out the attack in their name.

This should be extremely alarming for the German and European security forces.

As with last Thursday's (14/7/16) attack in Nice, France it appears to demonstrate that through migrants and the Internet ISIL has been able to establish a network of sleeper agents across Europe. Those agents can then be activated to carry out attacks at very short notice.

However it is possible that Ahmadzai simply decided to activate himself. That of course would depend on how much coverage the charging of the train dispatcher in the February 9th (9/2/16) train crash received. Here in the UK I got a couple of lines on it from a French news agency. I'm guessing it received a lot more coverage in Bavaria.

It is of course possible that the two events are entirely coincidental. However that seems unlikely to me.

On Tuesday (19/7/16) a man armed with a knife and falsely claiming to be carrying explosives barricaded himself in a hotel in Bollene on France's Cote de'Azor region around 250km (150 miles) north-west of Nice. This of course created scenes extremely similar to the current situation in Yerevan.

On Tuesday (19/7/16)  night a woman and her three daughters aged between 8 and 14 were stabbed by a north African man who objected to the fact they weren't dressed in accordance to Muslim modesty standards. This of course occurred on France's Cote de'Azor region around 265km (160 miles) west of Nice and around 70km (40 miles) south of Bollene.

The fact that women are increasingly harassed for not adhering to Muslim modesty standards is just one of the symptoms of how Turkey is becoming increasingly Islamist under Erdogan.

I do remember one particularly unpleasent conversation with an AKP supporter who claimed that 8 year old girls not wearing the Hijab deserve to be raped.

Prior to France and Germany raising their concerns of Sunday (17/7/16) there was a plane crash at an airshow in Alberta, Canada. Including the Shoreham, UK airshow disaster this was of course a big fashion of the summer of 2015 - just after Obama saved Erdogan's AKP from defeat in Turkey's June General Election.

The aircraft on this occasion was a T-28 Trojan. This was brought in as a training aircraft by the US military to replace the T-6 Texan - as in Dallas, Texas. However combat versions were used in various counter-insurgency/terrorism operations in Vietnam, Congo and Algeria. It also saw action in the 1989 failed coup d'etat in the Philippines.

Earlier on Sunday (17/7/16) a small private jet carrying UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson (no really) to an EU meeting in Belgium was forced to make an emergency landing at Luton Airport, UK.

This seemed to pose the obvious question of if Erdogan's small private jet was being harassed by rebel F-16's and Istanbul's Ataturk airport was under rebel control as he claimed why was Erdogan's jet allowed to land at Ataturk rather than simply being shot down?

At around the same time a vintage helicopter crashed at Breighton airfield in the UK. Rather like Incrilk Breighton is a former Cold War military base built to hold long range bombers and store "Thor" nuclear warheads.

Although it's hard for me to be exact the particular helicopter in question seems to be some variant of a Saro P.531 such as a Westland Scout or Westland Wasp. It's distinctive lattice tail section means it could be easily be mistaken for the iconic Bell H-13 Sioux.

The Sioux is of course hugely famous for being featured in the opening titles of the US TV show "M*A*S*H."

This was set during the 1950-1953 Korean war. It was due to their participation in that UN mandated operation that Turkey was invited to join NATO in 1953. A decision that now seems to be very much in doubt.

Whether Mobile Army Surgical Hospital's (M*A*S*H's) will be deployed to Iraq to help with the liberation of Mosul from ISIL or even to Syria to help liberate Raqqa is a major discussion point at the moment.

The theme song from the 1970 movie "M*A*S*H" is of course "Suicide is Painless."

That's sounds like a recommendation to a certain American individual who shall remain nameless at this point.
