Berlin mayor accuses Turkey of waging war on Gulen supporters in Germany
Mayor Michael Müller has accused Ankara of extending its post-coup crackdown to Germany. The Turkish president has accused a US-based activist of initiating the coup.
Müller, who as governing mayor is premier of the state of Berlin, told the Sunday edition of German newspaper “Bild” that Turkish officials had approached him following the attempted coup last month.
“I was approached and asked by a Turkish government official whether we would be prepared to critically confront the Gulen movement in Berlin and, if necessary, to support measures against it,” Müller told the newspaper.
“I rejected the idea and made it very clear that Turkish conflicts could not be waged in our city,” he added.
In Germany, businesses thought to be in support of Gulen have been harrassed by Erdogan supporters. In late July, the western city of Cologne was the scene of a massive demonstration in support of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Crackdown continues
Erdogan blames the July coup attempt on US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, who has adamantly denied the claims. On Friday, Gulen penned an editorial in French newspaper “Le Monde,” calling on Erdogan to produce evidence of his guilt.
Meanwhile, in Turkey, Erdogan has purged tens of thousands of academics, journalists, civil servants and military personnel he suspects of supporting Gulen.
Erdogan has also repeatedly called on the US to extradict the cleric.
Turkey Abortive coup in Turkey: 216 soldiers, including nine generals, still at large
In total 216 soldiers, including nine generals, are still at large and wanted by authorities for more than three weeks after the failed coup attempt in Turkey, announced Monday the spokesman of the government, Numan Kurtulmus.
“186 armed forces personnel and 30 gendarmerie are on the run. Among them are nine general, “said he said after a cabinet meeting.
These people are actively sought by police in connection with the vast purge conducted in Turkey since the failed coup of 15 July against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who was charged by Ankara to supporters of exiled preacher in the US Fethullah Gulen said Mr. Kurtulmuş told reporters.
Until the purge conducted in Turkey under state of emergency has hit hard the army – which saw the dismissal of nearly half of his generals -, justice, education and the press. “This attempt was to provoke a civil war in Turkey to open the way for an occupation of the country,” said the spokesman, without elaborating.
Mr. Kurtulmus also indicated that 10 foreign nationals had been the subject of legal proceedings after the abortive putsch, including nine suspected of having links with FETO (acronym coined by Ankara for güleniste network) “Four of them were charged, one was released, another is on the run and three others remain in detention “, has he said, without specifying their nationality.
On the other hand, the three million civil servants who had been recalled to regain their positions after July 15 will leave on annual leave, he added Kurtulmus.

Austrian FPÖ head compares failed Turkish coup to Reichstag fire in Nazi Germany
The head of Austria’s far-right party has likened the failed coup in Turkey and subsequent purges to the burning of the Reichstag in Nazi Germany. Turkish President Erdogan has firmly denied any coup involvement.
Heinz-Christian Strache, the leader of right-wing Freedom Party (FPÖ), drew parallels between the aftermath of the Reichstag fire in Nazi Germany and a recent attempted military coup in Turkey, in an interview published on Saturday.
“One almost had the impression that it was a guided putsch aimed in the end at making a presidential dictatorship by Erdogan possible,” Strache told the Austrian daily Die Presse in an interview.
“He then grabbed complete power for himself – with prepared lists,” said Strache.
“We have dramatically experienced such mechanisms in history before, such as the burning of the Reichstag, where one seized complete power as a consequence,” added the FPÖ head.
In 1933, the fire on the German parliament building was depicted by the Nazis as a Communist ploy against the government. The blaze was used to justify curbing civil liberties and finalized Adolf Hitler’s powerful hold on Germany.
His comments were later echoed by Christian Lindner, the leader of Germany’s Free Democrat party (FDP), who also compared the recent failed coup in Turkey to the 1933 Reichstag fire. He told the “Bild am Sonntag” newspaper that Erdogan was “building an authoritarian regime tailored solely to himself.”
Lindner said the power grab meant that Erdogan “cannot be a partner for Europe.” He added that he was disgusted that EU accession talks for Turkey had not been stopped long ago.
Following the attempted military coup on July 15 by a faction within the Turkish army, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan used the coup plot to justify a crackdown on political opponents in universities, media, the judiciary, civil service and the army.
Erdogan has staunchly rejected any accusations that his government might have planned the coup. He has also blamed the attempted uprising on a US-based Muslim cleric.
Austrian Chancellor Christian Kern suggested earlier this week that the European Union discuss the possibility of ending talks with Turkey over its EU membership bid.
Turkey’s foreign minister fired back on Friday, calling Austria the “capital of radical racism” following Kern’s comments.

Turkey Says FBI and CIA Behind Failed Coup, Gulen ‘Only a Pawn’
The Erdogan regime continues to play with fire renewing accusations that the United States spearheaded a complex conspiracy to overthrow the Turkish government.
A Turkish prosecutor claims that the CIA and FBI provided training to followers of US-based Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen, whom Ankara initially called the “mastermind” of the failed attempt to overthrow the Erdogan regime on July 15 that left hundreds dead and thousands more wounded.
An indictment, prepared by the Edirne Public Prosecutor’s office and submitted to the local Second Heavy Penal Court, seeks the harshest possible punishment for 43 suspected coup plotters. In the indictment, the prosecutors allege that members of “the Fethullah Terrorist Organization” (FETO) were trained by the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
“The CIA and FBI provided training in several subjects to the cadre raised in the culture centers belonging to the Gulen movement,” read the indictment. “The operations carried out by prosecutors and security officials during the Dec. 17 process can be taken as a good example of this.” The “Dec. 17 process” refers to a high profile corruption probe that targeted senior government officials in 2013.
“The [failed coup] attempt aimed to weaken the state with all its institutions by getting rid of the government completely,” stated the document. “Those in the Gulen movement who work in the judicial and security institutions and who received the aforementioned training, took on the task and moved into action.”
The prosecutor’s claims were alluded to in part by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan who said Friday in response to criticism by US CENTCOM Commander four-star General Joseph Votel, “My people know who is behind this scheme… they know who the superior intelligence behind it is, and with these statements [condemning the post-coup purge] you are revealing yourselves, you are giving yourselves away.” The statement was interpreted as an accusation against US intelligence agencies.
On Saturday, the Turkish President continued the theme of subtle accusations calling US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen “a pawn” backed by a “mastermind” which has also been interpreted as suggesting that the US agencies supported the failed putsch.
US military and intelligence officials have been the target of scorn and accusation from Turkish leaders in the wake of the failed coup starting with the country’s Labor Minister who said on July 16 in an interview with HaberTurk that “the United States is behind the coup.”
These accusations were forcefully denounced by the State Department which called the claims “utterly false and harmful to our bilateral relations.” However, on July 17, Turkey’s Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said the country was ready to go to war with “any” country that backed Fethullah Gulen, viewed as a reference to America’s refusal to extradite the suspected coup leader.
These accusations have grown in recent weeks with Erdogan alleging that CENTCOM commander General Joseph Votel was siding with the coup plotters and with the country’s leading pro-Erdogan Islamist newspaper Yeni Safak printing a picture of American three-star General and commander of NATO’s International Security Assistance Forces (ISAF) John F. Campbell under the headline “The Man Behind the Failed Coup in Turkey.”
The result of the shocking allegations has been an emboldening of anti-American fervor in the country with over 5,000 protesters marching towards the Incirlik Air Base on Thursday chanting “death to the US” and demanding that the United States leave. That incident came on the heels of a massive fire near NATO’s Izmir base with officials suggesting the cause was “anti-American sabotage” as reported by Turkey’s T24 News.
On Saturday, 7000 armed police officers supported by heavy vehicles blocked all access to NATO’s Incirlik Air Base. Turkish newspaper Hurriyet reported that Adana Police received a tip of a brewing second coup attempt, but the country’s European Affairs Minister Omer Celik downplayed the sudden show of force calling it a “general security check” and asserting that “nothing is wrong.”
During the temporary blockade of the Incirlik Air Base, a group of several hundred anti-American protesters assembled near the scene chanting for the base to be shut down as confirmed by video accounts on the scene although some Western outlets have provided conflicting reports that the protesters preceded the blockade and that Turkish police were there to disperse the crowd.

Some 7,000 armed police with heavy vehicles have surrounded and blocked the Incirlik air base in Adana used by NATO forces, already restricted in the aftermath of a failed coup. Unconfirmed reports say troops were sent to deal with a new coup attempt.
Hurriyet reported earlier that Adana police had been tipped off about a new coup attempt, and forces were immediately alerted. The entrance to the base was closed off.
Security forces armed with rifles and armored TOMA vehicles used by Turkish riot police could be seen at the site in photos taken by witnesses.
Turkey’s minister for EU Affairs downplayed the situation in a Twitter post, saying a “security inspection” was carried out.
On Thursday, a huge rally marched towards the NATO base, as people with loudspeakers chanted anti-American and anti-Israel slogans. The demonstrators claim that the US had a hand in the failed July 15 coup attempt in which 270 people died. Tens of thousands people, including members of the military, police, judiciary, media, and civil service, have been arrested in connection with the coup, which Turkish officials say was organized by US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen, Erdogan’s former ally, who is now his most hated rival.

Turkey: The alleged Coup Leader’s two-star general close confidant of Erdoğan
Turkey: Coup Leader’s Erdoğan Connections
By MICHAEL RUBIN,
Word out of Turkey is that the alleged coup leader was Mehmet Dişli, a two-star general who happens to be the brother of Saban Dişli, a former vice president of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP). Saban is a close confidant of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Former Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu had dismissed Saban but newly-appointed Prime Minister Binali Yildirim, a yes-man to Erdoğan, had restored him to his position.

The Two evils mudding the world Gulen versus Erdogan battle spills over into Germany
Germany’s Turkish population is split after the coup attempt. No love is lost between followers of Fethullah Gulen and Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Leaders of associations connected to the two men are playing down the issue.
One can sense Ercan Karakoyu’s agitation, his voice trembles as he speaks. There is a “massive” struggle against members of the Gulen movement here in Germany: “The situation is scary. Gulen movement facilities are being pelted with rocks, sprayed with graffiti and members have even been receiving death threats.” Veritable witch hunts are underway on social media networks and text messaging platforms.
Karakoyu is the director of the Foundation for Dialog and Education. Since 2014, the foundation has served as the mouthpiece for the “Hizmet Movement” in Germany (Hizmet means “the Service” in English) – or as it is often called, the Gulen movement. It is made up of followers of Turkish preacher Fethullah Gulen, once a close companion of Recep Tayyip Erdogan and now considered to be his archenemy.
One of the groups that Karakoyu accuses of being responsible for the agitation is the Union of European Turkish Democrats (UETD). He says it is a kind of an AKP (Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party) lobbying group, acting as the long arm of President Erdogan in Germany.
“Other mosque associations, such as DiTiB, have also hung signs saying that Gulen supporters have no place in their communities.” He mentions three specific instances: in Hagen, Duisburg and Günzburg.
With some 700 mosques under its aegis, DiTiB, the Turkish-Islamic Union for Religious Affairs, is the largest mosque association in Germany. When asked about Karakoyu’s accusations, representatives seem surprised.
The press spokesperson for DiTiB, Ayse Aydin, categorically denies them: “We are a Muslim religious community, and we never turn away anyone who wants to pray in a mosque.” As a rule, all DiTiB mosques are open to anyone that wants to pray.
Escalating after the putsch
DiTiB is closely associated with state religious authorities in Turkey. The conflict between it and the Foundation for Dialog and Education, is thus also a conflict between supporters of Erdogan and Gulen. The quarrel puts a spotlight on the mood of the Turkish community in Germany, which has shown deep divisions in the days following the failed putsch in Turkey.
Dr. Christoph Ramm is an expert on Turkey at the University of Bern, in Switzerland. He is not in the least surprised that things are turbulent at the moment: “The Turkish government calls the Gulen movement a terrorist organization. They have made a massive attempt to remove all Gulen supporters from the justice system, the police force and the military.” Media outlets that are loyal to Gulen, such as “Zaman”, the most widely circulated newspaper in Turkey, have also been affected by these “purges.”
The preacher’s shadowy goals
Influential media reporting is one of the fundamental pillars of the Gulen movement. Officially, it propagates a peaceful Islam with Turkish characteristics. The core of the movement is education, and it also links religious values with a sensibility for economic activity. Meanwhile, the movement is active in more than 140 countries, mostly building schools and other educational institutions. Nothing is known about the source of its financing, nor about the exact number of its followers.
Turkey detains more than 7,500 over coup attempt
“So far 7,543 suspects have been detained. The numbers may change. It includes 100 police, 6,038 soldiers, 755 judges and prosecutors and 650 civilians,” Yildirim said, adding that 316 of the detainees have been remanded in custody.
The Turkish premier also gave a new toll of the victims of the military-led coup attempt, saying 208 people were killed, including 145 civilians, 60 police and three soldiers, adding that 1,491 others were also wounded as a result of the coup attempt which unfolded on Friday night.
Additionally, the military and the government say over 100 coup plotters have also been killed.
rdogan has vowed to bring those responsible for the move to justice.
After the coup was declared over, Erdogan said on Saturday that the plotters will pay a “heavy price” for what they did to the security and stability of the country. That has triggered a massive crackdown on members of the military, the judiciary and journalists, with reports suggesting many have been discarded from their official positions due to alleged connections to plotters.
Earlier on Monday, security forces killed an armed attacker who reportedly shot at them from a vehicle outside an Ankara courthouse. The shooting came as the court was hearing cases against dozens of suspects in the failed coup.
Sources identified the attacker as an army soldier, without elaborating whether he had any connection to the coup attempt.
Local media said police also arrested two other people during the attack.
Turkey has been on high security alert following the Friday coup attempt as well as a string of terrorist attacks that have hit the country over the past year.
