World Peace “Lennon Ivan Style” – Part 212

World Peace “Lennon Ivan Style” – Part 212:

As a continuation from my last blog whereby I believe the root of “World Peace” is centered on peace in the Middle East with the first step being negotiated peace between Israel and the Palestinians, I would like to remain objective and independent in my views such that I would like to today bring Iraq into my views as they seem to be the closest at this time to a full fledge civil war of rage like wild animals stuck together in a cage. However, it is important to note that Israel and Palestine seem to be awakening from their hatred induced coma state with the potential for peace negotiations to be resumed in the near future in the United States, while Egypt continues to operate in supremacy domination mode whereby the minority Christian military continues to hold on to power while the Muslim majority is fuming at the seams hoping to awaken from this horrible dream. As for the Syrians, both sides are still in anger induced coma state for the mentally insane such that millions of Syrians continue to suffer each and every day. In terms of the Russians and Ukrainians, they seem to have entered into a political war game whereby neither party wishes to concede but rather seems to prefer to enter into a civil war and commit dirty deeds. While Israelis, Palestinians, Egyptians, Syrians, Russians and Ukrainians continue along their respective paths toward enlightenment, it is now time for the Iraqis to be enlightened as to the path of quelling their current tensions before any more civil war breaks out which bears the risk of leading to a third and final world war on this earth, after which, there will be no place for anyone left to run. In summary, Observers around the world are stunned by the speed and scope of assaults on every major city in the upper Tigris River Valley, including Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS. However, as the ISIS rebels extend their reach across Iraq, the U.S. Air Force was forced to intervene in order to prevent Genocide while Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki relinquished power opening a new political chapter that U.S. officials hope will move Iraq toward a more unified front against Islamic jihadists currently running wild and literally beheading “Infidels” like pigs without shedding a tear as blood spills out of their victims giving everybody creepy chills. 

During the week ending on Sunday, September 18, 2016, TURKEY retreated from their aggressive siege of CIZRE, SILOPI, DIYARBAKIR and NUSAYBIN, predominantly KURDISH, which TURKEY had converted into a suburban war zone area as TURKEY was on the defense as they were subject to an internal military “Coup D’État” that failed as gunfire and explosions erupted in which 265 people died, 161 of them civilians, over one month ago. As a result of the failed “Coup D’État”, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared a state of emergency, extended the period during which suspects can be detained without charge to 30 days, closed more than 1,000 private schools and closed more than 1,200 associations. Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan continued cleaning house again this week after nearly two months since the failed “Coup D’État” for which officials continue to blame the disciples of TURKISH cleric Fethullah Gulen.  A wide scale purge led by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his governing AKP has reached witch-hunt proportions with more than 100,000 people including teachers, military officers, judges, civil servants and airline employees arrested or fired from their jobs on accusations of connections to Mr. Gulen, who outright denies any and all involvement.

Moving on to IRAQ, hundreds of American troops arrived at QAYYARAH air base, 40 miles south of MOSUL, in preparation for an attempt to liberate the city. The US forces will be providing support, logistics and supplies for an offensive intended to retake the last major city in Iraq held by ISIS. Although ISIS defenses are crumbling fast with an offensive for the city of MOSUL, ISIS’s last major stronghold in Iraq, likely to occur by the end of the current year, ISIS will likely survive as an incognito terrorist organization throughout the world as ISIS has managed to amass significant wealth during its control of the oil flowing from IRAQ to finance its terrorist initiatives on foreign soil for years to come. 

Moving on to SYRIA, US soldiers embedded with the KURDISH YPG in the Syrian town of TEL ABYAD came under fire from TURKEY. KURDISH YPG forces were accused of using US flags as a shield against a possible second TURKISH incursion into SYRIA to disrupt KURDISH plans for autonomy. Tensions between KURDISH forces and the TURKISH army have been on the rise ever since the KURDISH forces, Free Syrian Army (FSA) and other Islamist militias overtook the town of JARABULUS from ISIS. The campaign in northern Syria was meant to obstruct the KURDS from uniting their two strongholds of KOBANI and AFRIN. In regards to the RUSSIAN impact on SYRIA, although RUSSIA and the US have agreed to coordinate air strikes against ISIS militants in SYRIA as part of a detailed agreement to reduce the violence in SYRIA, the plan was stymied, on the ground, from the outset this week whereby the cessation of hostilities contemporaneously with Syrian forces ending combat missions in specified areas held by the Free Syrian Army (FSA) seem to have been ignored. 

In my opinion, Turkey’s participation in the military battle against ISIS is a positive addition to the ALLIANCE albeit Turkey’s negative stance against the PKK which in my opinion is currently unwarranted and deteriorating. However, with the recent majority victory by the governing AKP and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, it appears that Turkey’s future is heading for more war and bloodshed. Unfortunately, the governing AKP and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan have chosen the path of war with the PKK as opposed to diplomacy via the KURDISH HDP political party which secured close to 11% during recent Turkish elections. Therefore, in my opinion, the governing AKP and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will learn the hard way that nobody on the outside world looking in is stupid but rather everyone chooses to close their eyes and allow Turkey to continue with its ethnic cleansing campaign of the KURDS in exchange for Turkey signing a deal with the European Union (EU) to stem the flow of refugees arriving in Greece. In exchange for reducing human trafficking and improving living conditions for 2.5 million refugees within its borders, Turkey will receive Euro 3 billion in financial aid in return, the possibility of visa-free travel for its citizens, and a reopening of EU membership talks. In my opinion, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the governing AKP will learn the hard way that the current failed “Coup D’État” exposes the deep discontent within the TURKISH military ranks as the governing AKP and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan persist with their quest to annihilate the HDP and the KURDS as the AKP is converting itself into a majority fascist regime with its house cleaning exercises whereby virtually all dissidents have been fired. In my opinion, the TURKISH purge that resembles the darkness of the medieval witch-hunt days has deteriorated to the point of a bad joke whereby anyone who has any document written by TURKISH cleric Fethullah Gulen is incarcerated on the premise of guilty for treason until proven innocent. In my opinion, the real reason for the teachers, military officers, judges, civil servants and airline employees being targeted is that they signed a petition opposing the TURKISH government’s war with KURDISH militants such that it is payback time by the governing AKP and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Unfortunately, the majority of the TURKS support these medieval witch-hunt measures such that the majority of TURKS see what I perceive to be a Fascist purge as democratic enforcement exercises. Therefore, in my opinion, the TURKS have set the medieval example with their current witch-hunt purge that as long as the majority supports Fascist principals, these principals are deemed to be democratic under the notion of majority rules.

Moving on to Iraq, following the recent recapture of FALLUJAH, Iraqi forces have gained the momentum albeit the reality of the ISIS cancer which has managed to amass significant wealth during its control of IRAQI oil such that ISIS has managed to reposition itself with sleeper cells throughout the world in preparation for future strikes on foreign soil should ISIS be overthrown in IRAQ. Therefore, although ISIS now finds itself on the defense as IRAQI forces are planning operations aimed at a full fledge ground assault on MOSUL which has been held by ISIS since June of 2014, ISIS is still a force to be reckoned with, due to its significant wealth amassed in safe havens abroad, such that although the looming battle for MOSUL will likely lead to the end of the ISIS era in IRAQ, the ISIS wealth abroad will likely lead to ISIS taking the fight to the streets on foreign soil which will necessitate heightened security measures until kingdom come.

Moving on to Syria, the tensions between KURDISH forces and the TURKISH army were at an all time high as TURKEY fired at the KURDS behind US flags in order to obstruct the KURDS from uniting their two strongholds of KOBANI and AFRIN such that it is no surprise that TURKEY will never give the KURDS an inch of breathing room regardless of the KURDISH cleansing of the ISIS footprint. In terms of the RUSSIAN and US held talks in Geneva that resulted in a solution moving forward, once again the solution could not get implemented on the ground with the never-ending rage ensuing between the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and President Bashar al-Assad dominating autocratic reign. 

In summary, I refer to “World Peace Lennon Ivan Style – Part 212” as the belief that ISIS managed to amass significant wealth such that ISIS will likely take the fight to the streets abroad that will necessitate heightened security measures until kingdom come.
