An End Time Weasel is Creeping into ‘Greater Syria’ Hen House
After running around it 4 years looking for slit to slither Through
His final goal, which he might never reach, is an Islamic Caliphate
He became PM as a creepy crawler to slowly conquer Turkish Army
An expression ‘a person of interest’ is a fitting label for PM Erdogan

Modern ‘Greater Syria’ included part of Southeastern Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, and extreme Northeastern Iraq.

MODERN TURKEY
Although the region’s population was dominated by Sunni Muslims, it also contained sizable populations of Shi’a, Alawite and Ismaili Muslims, Syriac Orthodox, Maronite, Greek Orthodox, Roman Catholics and Melkite Christians, Mizrahi Jews, and Druzes.
Following the San Remo conference and the defeat of King Faisal’s short-lived monarchy in Syria at the Battle of Maysalun, the French general Henri Gouraud, in breach
of the conditions of the mandate, subdivided the French Mandate of Syria into six states. They were the states of Damascus (1920), Aleppo (1920), Alawite State (1920), Jabal Druze (1921), the autonomous Sanjak of Alexandretta (1921) (modern-day Hatay,Turkey), and Greater Lebanon (1920) which later became the modern country of Lebanon.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan again voiced support for the Syrian opposition on Tuesday, according to a Today’s Zaman report.

Speaking at a parliamentary meeting, he added, “We will continue to display the necessary stance.
I believe that the Syrian people will be successful in their glorious resistance.”

Turkey, Israel Face New Crisis over Turkish Spy Satellite Project
Emre Soncan
(Zaman-Turkey)
Turkey’s Gokturk electro-optical satellite project will enable Turkey to acquire high-resolution images for military intelligence
in Europe, the Caucasus and the Middle East.
Concerned that the satellite will ga
ther images of its territory, Israel has pressured France, which is working on the construction of the satellite in cooperation with the Italian-based Telespazio, to stop the project.
Once the satellite is launched in 2012, Turkey will be able to sell the images it obtains to other countries as well.
Turkish officials have stated clearly: “We will decide how to use the images taken by our satellite.”

The failure of Kurdish leaders to fulfill their diplomatic agenda extends beyond the latest Turkish incursion. After all, even before the Hakari attacks, the Turkish Army stationed more than 1,000 troops stationed on mountains and around villages several kilometers across the Iraqi and Iraqi Kurdish border. Indeed, as much as Turkey’s Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu frames his country’s foreign policy as seeking good relations with all its neighbors, the fact remains that Turkey is the only aspirant to the European Union that unabashedly occupies other countries. Turkish occupation in Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan,as well as in Cyprus suggests the true meaning of neo-Ottomanism.
Turkey’s occupations, however, provide the Kurdistan Regional Government with an opportunity. On September 2, 2011, Turkey’s Minister for European Union Affairs, threatened Cyprus with military action. Should that European Union member not stop oil exploration in international waters off its coast, he said, that Turkey might respond militarily. “That’s what a navy is for,” he quipped.
While Arab states focused on the simultaneous rupture in the Israel-Turkey partnership, Turkey’s bellicosity toward Cyprus was the subject of greater concern not only in Nicosia and Athens, but also in many other European capitals. Apart, neither Cyprus nor Kurdistan has much leverage. Turkey’s 37-year occupation of Cyprus is seldom front page news in Washington, London, or any other country.
While former Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer tries to broker an agreement, and occasionally UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon makes statements about the need to resolve the conflict, lack of international interest condemns Cyprus to continued division.
Of all Turkey’s neighbors, it is the Armenians who have the greatest influence
in Washington. Corollary Armenian Diaspora groups are also influential in London, Paris, and across Europe. In the United States, at least, the Armenian lobby has failed repeatedly in its principle goal to win American recognition of Armenian genocide by Ottoman.

ERDOGAN IS THE SNAKE IN HIGH GRASS!
WHO KNOWS WHICH RACE CARD TO PLAY
IN ORDER TO PLAN TO STAY AS TURKEY PM
CLIMBING TO BE A CALIPH OF ISLAM STATES
TURK PM HAS PLAYED THE JEWISH RACE CARD!

I have thought for more than 35 years that the last Horn of Daniel 7 would come out of the northwestern area of the ancient Assyrian Empire which included Greater Syria and Southeastern Turkey, with the most likely country of his rise to power being Syria.
Daniel 7:20-22 – And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.
[21] I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; [22] Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
I believe the last horn, when he gains power, will attack Israel and prevail against her by conquering Jerusalem and driving her into the Negev Wilderness, where she will remain for some three and one-half years.
Zechariah 14:1,2 – Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. [2] For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Revelation 12:6 – And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Daniel 7:24-27 – And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. [25] And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. [26] But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
[27] And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
Daniel’s last horn will change the times of the offerings, the call to worship, and convert the occupants of the known world land of Daniel’ s writing
s to Sharia Law. He will keep Israel in his hand by keeping her surrounded in the Negev for some three and one-half years.
At the end of that time the Messiah will come to bring in His everlasting Kingdom.

Erdogan and the Israel Card
Steven J. Rosen
Last year, Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan defended Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir, indicted by the International Criminal Court for killing half a million Sudanese Christians and non-Arab Muslims. In March 2010, he denied that Turks ever killed Armenian civilians. He said the Turkish military garrison stationed in Cyprus since 1974 is “not an occupier” but “[ensures] the peace.” On tens of thousands of Kurds killed by Turkish security forces from 1984 to 1999, he says nothing.
Could it be that there is something more to Erdogan’s rage against Israel? Turkish elections, 13 months away, hold the answer. Backing for Erdogan’s party has fallen to 29%, the lowest level since it won power in 2002 and far below the 47% it scored in July 2007.
So Erdogan decided to play the Israel card.
In the 2009 Pew Global Attitudes survey, 73% of Turks rated their opinions of Jews as “negative.” Meanwhile, 68% of Turks rated their opinions of Christians as “negative.” A 2010 BBC poll found negative views of the U.S. among 70% of Turks. (Wall Street Journal)

A Change in Tehran’s Propaganda War Against Israel
Amir Taheri
Over the past three years, Iran’s Khomeinist regime has portrayed Israel as a waning power, a small and vulnerable enclave that, having lost the support of its powerful protector, the U.S., is facing the might of a resurgent Muslim world under Tehran’s leadership. This message is pumped out through Iranian satellite television stations, and in scores of magaz
ines and books that are freely distributed throughout the Muslim world. Muslim opinion-formers are regularly invited to Iran for seminars on the pan-Islamic campaign to accelerate “the inevitable end of Israel,” a phrase repeatedly used by Iran’s official media.
To underline this new image of Israel, the Tehran propaganda machine has replaced footage of poor Palestinians crushed by “Zionists” with that of the growing arsenal of rockets that Hizbullah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza have built up for what President Ahmadinejad calls “the final assault on the Zionist state.” The Jew, previously depicted as aggressive and domineering, is presented as cowardly.

Turkey Invites Nasrallah, Who Fears IDF will Kill Him En Route
By Maayana Miskin
June 9, 2010
Turkey’s Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has reportedly invited senior Hizbullah terrorist Hassan Nasrallah to Ankara. However, Nasrallah fears the IDF will assassinate him if he emerges from the hiding places in Lebanon he hs been in since the Second Lebanon War. Iran may therefore provide security for Nasrallah, Kuwaiti paper Al-Siyasa reported Thursday.
Not only is Erdogan to meet Nasrallah, but he is apparently to do so in accordance with advice from Hamas’s leader, Khaled Mashaal. Mashaal recently told Erdogan that a meeting with Nasrallah would increase his popularity in the Arab street, Al-Siyasa claimed.
Nasrallah is reported to be pleased with the invitation.
However, while he hopes to respond to Erdogan’s invitation in the affirmative, the Hizbullah chief apparently fears that a trip to Ankara could give Israel an opportunity to assassinate him.
In order to safely visit Turkey, Nasrallah will receive aid from Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. Both Iran and Hizbullah will ask Turkey to allow armed Revolutionary Guard soldiers onto Turkish territory in order to provide security.
Turkey has grown increasingly hostile to Israel under Erdogan’s rule. Erdogan harshly criticized Israel following the early 2009 Cast Lead counter-terror offensive, and soon afterward canceled joint Turkish-Israeli military exercises while conducting joint exercises with Syria. A series on Turkish television depicted Israeli soldiers kidnapping babies and murdering innocent Arab children in cold blood.
In March 2010, Erdogan told Arab media that sites such as the Temple Mount and the Tomb of the Patriarchs had never been Jewish, and said PA Arab demands were “top priority” for his government.
In May, Turkey backed the Gaza-bound flotilla that included the Mavi Marmara, despite the IHH’s known ties to Islamic terrorism. The resulting incident last week, in which Israeli soldiers clashed with members of the IHH aboard the Mavi Marmara, raised concerns over Turkey’s increasing hostility to Israel and friendship with Gaza and Iran. The invitation to Nasrallah would be yet another Turkish step away from Israel and toward Iran. (IsraelNationalNews.com)
