COMMENT: Over the years, the Fethullahist Terror Organisation (Feto)'s modus operandi has been to specifically target the strategic institutions of Turkey in order to manipulate the highest echelons of decision-making.
The first thing that needs immediate clarification is the extent of the article’s delusion about the coup attempt of July 15 2016 and its perpetrators. Sadly, the author is not aware of the true nature of the coup attempt, which was neither a democratic uprising nor a lawful protest against the government of Turkey.
The toll of this so-called “Hizmet” movement, led by Fethullah Gülen, which cunningly poses as a moderate, tolerant, nonviolent, pro-dialogue social movement, was the death of 250 people and 2 195 people were injured. Against this backdrop, the image of “innocent Turkish citizens” suffering under an “unjust regime” is dangerously fictional, because Feto members are neither innocent nor tried without reason.
Despite the author’s misguided encouragement to get South Africa to be more vocal about the “injustices” regarding this matter, as a friend of this wonderful country, it is my duty to advise against it. South Africa should never go down the road of becoming a safe haven for people who have committed a crime against their own country by the most nondemocratic and unlawful means imaginable.
