In US foreign policy, do interests or religious ideals prevail?

America today is governed by the most radical understanding of Evangelical Sharia-ism, the DEAŞ version of the Islamic world. This understanding, in perfect harmony with Israel, which is governed by Zionism with the same mindset, but at odds with all the rest of the world, is dragging both US politics and the world into utter catastrophe. In their international relations they make all their choices according to a program they derive from a Zionist interpretation of the Holy Bible.

This program is the only thing the Obama administration had in view when it unilaterally cancelled in one stroke the negotiation process with Iran, which had been delicately worked out over years in an extremely rational-strategic manner in keeping with diplomatic conventions. This program pleases Israel in the short term but is a program that will in the long term be Israel's catastrophe too. It is foreseen that as a result of implementing this program, which will step by step drag the region into an Armageddon war, there will be no state called Israel or nation called Jewish left.

In our last piece we presented an excerpt from a documentary once broadcast on Germany's number one state television, Das Erste, about American Evangelist radical Christians. It was very clear that the Iraq occupation, which led to the brutal massacre of over a million people and the complete loss of the country's peace and stability and of people's trust in one another, was conducted within the framework of a thoroughly Evangelist plan.

Seeing, through the missionary activities of the Evangelist Radical Christians, who were given room to operate in Iraq during the occupation, how they look at the Muslim Iraqi people is enough to horrify a person. The life, honor and dignity of the Muslim Iraqi mean not an iota to them. They act, after all, with a takfirist and crusader mindset that does not even count as human anyone who is not one of them, who does not serve them. This mindset was in power then, is in power today, and is putting into effect its new plans to throw the Middle East into more confusion than it already is.

The plan is in fact very clear. With its present population and in its present state, it is not possible for Israel to occupy the whole Middle East, or the lands it imagines to have been promised to it, or to dominate them. But it is thought that not leaving strong administrations in these lands, weakening the existing administrations, will make Israel dominate the region on its own. This is the plan being implemented step by step today.

The matter is something far beyond Israel's security. The matter is Israel's domination. For that reason, as was never the case in Iraq, this US administration has no quest for stability in Syria either. It has no concern about fighting DEAŞ or terror either. Had it such a concern, what it would do is quite clear. Cleaning out every kind of terror with a sincere approach would not take more than a few months. The real source of the problem there, and its incidental source, are very clear. When approached honestly, reaching the result within a quite clear and simple plan is not at all difficult, but only if the claim that the US really wants to finish off DAEŞ or all the other terrorist organizations is true…

We always say that DEAŞ, both in its discourse and in its brutality and anti-human style, is very alien to the region's culture, faith and history. But there is an understanding to which such an alien movement is related, and it is the Evangelical radicalism, which claims to be fighting it and began to take root in the region with the Iraq occupation, and Zionist occupationism. It is not at all difficult to trace the genealogy of DAEŞ, which has never been seen to shed the blood of anyone but Muslims in the region, back to these two understandings.

The US's famous legendary foreign policy, meanwhile, has surrendered to this religious understanding.

Now let us, if you like, ask the famous foreign policy question again for the US:

In foreign policy, are interests or ideals important?

Isn't it clear enough that today's US foreign policy does not even serve its own interest? When a country with the means and power of the US has the possibility of being unrivaled and ahead in every respect in today's world, what can it gain by acting with an irrationality that is not at all proportionate to its power and means?

What, for example, does the US, which is becoming an object of hatred all over the world because of the policies it applies today, gain that is worth this hatred?

America is a country about which there is no positive perception in the world other than the acknowledgment that it is "strong." Apart from that, it is a country seen as the perpetrator of every kind of intrigue, injustice, massacre, conspiracy, military or non-military coups, theft, and imperialism. The image of a country whose friendship cannot be trusted and whose enmity is cruel is being engraved still deeper into minds by today's American administration.

Look, for example, at what declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel has gained the US. Or at what it has gained with its support to the PKK-PYD, a terror force, against Turkey, a country that is its ally in NATO and strategic partner in the region… What kind of mind, what kind of strategy, what kind of level of international relations and what kind of foreign policy is this? Where is the mind in this?

The US, known to have participated in all the coups in Turkey, could not hide its role much on 15 July, even if it wanted to. It could not hide it during the coup, but it especially revealed it fully with the protection it insists on giving to the FETÖ head and its elements. The more it revealed, the more it exhausted all the goodwill toward it in the eyes of the Turkish people. Now it has tried to practically issue a note via Twitter for the immediate release of Pastor Brunson, whose affiliation with the PKK and FETÖ has come out and who is being tried by the Turkish judiciary. The way Vice President Pence, a staunch Evangelist, put it shows that the mindset governing the US perceives the matter entirely religiously.

It is very clear that such a mindset governing the US at this time will do no good either to the US or to the world.

In fact, at this stage, if Pastor Brunson's connection to terror is confirmed as a result of the trial, wouldn't it be more fitting for those who so openly claim him to prepare to account for their share of this crime?
