Turkey - Great Moral Victory for Chief Prosecutor Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya

The world mass media reported falsely on the recent developments in Turkey; announcing that the Constitutional Court ruled yesterday against closing the governing Justice and Development Party (AK Party) is utterly false.

This falsehood reflects the perverse nature of the tyrannical mass media establishments of the supposedly free and democratic Western World; in fact, not a single journalist is allowed to write down his/her opinion for free. Orders are given on how to depict this personality and how to portray the other statesman. Directives are imperative as regards the overall presentation, positive or negative, of this or that development, country, institution, theory or idea.

Reality is thus monstrously transformed into an ugly falsehood and utter paranoia that is the normal equivalent of the Freemasonic teachings received by many journalists who, after have been initiated in the Apostate Freemasonic Lodge, act only according to orders given from their masters, and write all sorts of lies that the demented Freemasonic pseudo-order erratically insists on portraying as "truth". One should rather have pity on them; if they don´t obey the orders, believing they are wrong, they receive serious threats and alarms, and if they do not act accordingly, they are fired, professionally eliminated, and in some cases assassinated.

In fact, the Turkish Constitutional Court ruled in its majority for Erdogan´s Islamic terrorist party's closure. Six (6) out of 11 (eleven) members cast their votes in full accordance with the rightful purposes of Chief Prosecutor Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya.

Under the circumstances this has been achieved, it consists in a great moral victory of Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya.

If we only take into consideration the ceaseless threats against their lives that the Constitutional Court members have received, the recent Istanbul explosion, and the terrible pressures exercised by all sorts of European and American statesmen, businesspeople, diplomats and politicians, the great majority achieved (6 vs. 5) is one of the most heroic and the most noble events in the nine (9) decades of the modern Turkish History. Simply, this majority was not constitutionally enough to bring the result the brave and illuminated Chief Prosecutor wished.

I will expand on this issue in several forthcoming articles. In this article, I will complete the publication of excerpts taken from Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya´s pledge; more particularly, I will publish the evaluation of Anti-Secular Actions of the IDP by the Chief Prosecutor Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya, and his conclusion.

Excerpts Selected from the Indictment against the AK Party (JDP)

7. Evaluation of the Anti-secular Actions of the JDP by the Public Prosecutor (from p. 113 on)

"So, there is a strong possibility that political Islam or the ´moderate Islam´ model as some circles want to qualify it will turn Turkey into a country ruled by Shariah and it is also probable that Islamic terror will be used to this end".

"This mentality which takes democracy as an instrument to reach the ideal of Shariah hid [the JDP´s] intentions behind the ideology of ´moderate Islam´, produced by the centers of globalization after the 1990s for our country as the co-chairman of the Project of the Greater Middle East and other countries of the region as the political objective [of the ideology of ´moderate Islam´] and behind such concepts like human rights, democracy, freedoms of religion and conscious, and the right to education, none which is related to Shariah".

"The JDP has begun to gradually implement its objective of transforming the society into an Islamic one with the encouragement and impact of the votes it received in the general elections of 22 July 2007, first by preparing the draft of a new constitution and then aiming at the principle of secularism through putting the issue of headscarf on the agenda".

"The headscarf that is a symbol of religious fanaticism has been shown as an indispensable part of the freedom of belief and the party tried to present wearing headscarf as a right".

"Headscarf is a religious and political symbol supported by a liberating discourse by the Party in its march towards a counter-revolution in education, culture, economic and social life through its struggle against the Republican revolutions in general, and the principle of secularism, in particular".

"Elimination of the ban on headscarf at universities is a dangerous process which would lead to its gradual use in public sphere, forcing those who do not cover their hair, hence gradually creating a religious discrimination in all domains of life".

"The authorities of the concerned party surely know that the headscarf which has been transformed into a political symbol for opposing women´s freedoms and the basic values of the Republic and presented as a fundamental right to the society is the most important key for the counter-revolution that would bring the entire society under a theocratic order by spreading to all spheres and then by bringing some other anti-secular demands as rights to the social agenda and through new ´consensus-building processes".

"It is unquestionable that the legal change in the Law on Higher Education is against the Constitution. The constitutional amendment is contrary to the Constitution as well".

"... Those who are against the Republic and its philosophy of enlightenment has begun to look for a revenge against the Secular Republic with the manipulation of the unipolarism created by globalization and changes in international balances... Today the opponents of the Secular Republic have seized the opportunity for a counter-revolution which they never had before, by taking the international support behind them".

"The secular Republic is in danger as it has never been. Because the counter-revolutionaries are not marginals anymore, they are in power today".

"The party in question relied on political Islamists in appointing the bureaucrats with the power and ability created by the fact that it is in power".

"In around five and a half years of the JDP government, Turkey´s image of a secular country in international circles has been eroded and the countries of the world and especially the EU countries perceived Turkey as a ´moderate Islamic republic´. This perception has been officially acknowledged by American authorities like Colin L. Powell, former US Secretary of State. Many American authorities defined our country as a ´moderate Islamic republic´ ignoring the fact that Turkey is indeed a secular, democratic and social state governed by rule of law. They have showed this impudence in their discourse by the fact that prime minister Erdogan frequently refers to his co-chairmanship of the Greater Middle East Project which is an American project aiming at installing moderate Islamic regimes in the region".

8. Conclusion by the Chief Prosecutor Abdurrahman Yalcinkaya (from p. 145 on)

"It is thus concluded that the JDP has revealed its intention to constitute the environment in which basic principles of the Republic of Turkey will be changed by the actions mentioned above and especially by their proposals for a constitutional amendment and changes on the Law on Higher Education [abolishing ban on headscarves at universities] ignored the fact that religious symbols cannot be used in secular systems been determined to transform the secular Republic into a new life system and a new state order and begun to divide the society into those who are religious and those who are not been spending efforts to change gradually the secular judicial structure and to give it a new shape opened to the discussion the future of the regime and the Republic".

"It is a fact that the JDP will use material power to change the secular order because it enjoys the government power today and this danger is not far. This is a fact when we consider that they will adopt Shariah by enabling the society to evolve towards an Islamic structure through what they call "consensus processes" by exploiting religion and the sacred values and through jihad aiming at transforming the state into Shariah".

"The JDP would use jihad as required by Shariah when and if it fails to achieve to establish the regime it aims. In other words, the use of jihad, i.e. violence is probable".

"The threat posed by the policies of the JDP is clear and present. Concrete steps have been taken that may harm the civilized peace and the democratic regime in the country".

"In this context, there is no other possibility than closing the party as the only sanction applicable and also required by the society in order to protect the society from this danger and to prevent [the JDP] from reaching its objective".
