And since 2007, to lobby against the recognition of the Armenian Genocide Gülen movement has donated $ 1.5 million to U.S. politicians. Among those who received donations are registered U.S. President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and others.
Muhammed Fethullah Gülen (born 27 April 1941) is a Turkish preacher, former imam and writer. He is the founder of the Gülen movement (sometimes known as Hizmet). He currently lives in exile in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania in the United States. Gülen teaches (Hanafi) Anatolian version of Islam, derived from the teachings of Sunni Islamic scholar Said Nursi. Gülen is actively involved in the public debate on the future of the Turkish state, and Islam in the modern world. It has been described in the English media as “one of the world’s most important Muslim figures.” However, Gülen movement has been described as “having the characteristics of a cult” and its concealment and its influence in Turkish politics compared to “an Islamic Opus Dei.”
The Gülen movement is a transnational Islamic civic society movement inspired by the teachings of Gülen. His teachings on hizmet (selfless service to serve the “common good”) have attracted a large number of supporters in Turkey, Central Asia, and increasingly in other parts of the world.
Despite the claims of Gulen and his followers that the organization is non-political in nature, analysts believe that a significant number of arrests related to corruption charges against allies of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan reflects a struggle of growing political power between Gülen and the Prime Minister.
