A wolves' table in Libya, and the intellectual who sold his mind and soul to the devil

While Turkey's support for the Government of National Accord in Libya changes all the balances on the ground, the taste of the wolves' feast, quietly laid in Libya until now, has been spoiled for those wolves. The wolves who had sat down comfortably at the table merely to divide up Libya, leaving nothing to its people, have been left in a panic, not knowing what to do, once Turkey stepped onto the stage.

When Turkey arrived there together with the master of the house, at his official invitation and with all its legitimacy, it exposed one by one their coups, their human rights violations, and the massacres and war crimes they committed together with the war criminal they support. In Tarhuna alone, 13 mass graves holding the victims of massacres by the French-backed Haftar have been discovered. In the face of this scene, the BAE and Egypt, above all France, which supports Haftar, must be held to account. Turkey is now pursuing this case as well.

However, the panic experienced for a while at the wolves' table has now been replaced by a regrouping and preparations for a counter-attack. The counter-attacks reveal themselves not only on the ground but in the media and in public diplomacy efforts. Pirates who support every kind of terrorist organization in order to achieve their own despicable aims, who occupy a country merely out of greed for its resources and commit every kind of massacre and war crime there, can accuse Turkey of supporting terror and even of showing disharmony within NATO, on account of its support for the government with legitimate international recognition in Libya.

The speech that the coup-making general Haftar delivered last week to militiamen of the radical Salafi Madkhali group was an interesting example of this shamelessness. The Madkhali group, although Libyan, is an extremely dangerous fanatical group that takes its instructions directly from its sheikh named al-Madkhali, who resides in Saudi Arabia. The ideology of this group, which currently constitutes Haftar's most important armed militia support in Libya, is the same as the ideology of DAEŞ. If anyone knows with whom and for what DAEŞ is fighting on which side, perhaps we can point out the difference between them as well. But they have no difference at all, and the war crimes they have committed have become an open secret.

Addressing these militias, Haftar speaks of "the struggle against the terrorists in Tripoli" and lavishes praise on them for the sacrifice they have made to rid Libya of terror. On top of this approach, which pushes everything to the limit, came the contacts and statements, during a trip in support of Haftar, of France's parasitic Zionist intellectual Bernard-Henri Lévy. Lévy, who has deemed himself worthy of the title of an intellectual who supports freedom movements through such contacts, is in fact a typical orientalist spy. Lévy drew attention with his praise of Haftar, whom his own country supports, and whose sole mission consists of staging a coup and handing the country's resources over to the countries that support him while taking his own commission.

During these contacts, Lévy reportedly told the people he met that he sees the war in Libya as one front of a war in the Islamic world in general. He even claimed that those who see this war as one between Christianity and Islam are mistaken, and that on the contrary this war is a war within Islam itself. One side of this war within Islam, as you can guess, is the radical Islamist side represented by Turkey under Erdoğan. Identifying Turkey also with the Taliban of Afghanistan, Lévy has set against Turkey an Islamic Enlightenment represented by the BAE.

Tell me your friend and I will tell you who you are, your intentions, your lineage, your caliber. To be able to speak of the BAE as an "enlightenment Islam" is evidently to have donated one's mind and soul to the devil for free. It is a state that considers it an accomplishment to mobilize its coup-makers, terrorists, scheming spies and assassins at once to whichever region of the Islamic world shows even a slight democratization movement, and to strangle democratic initiatives through every kind of immoral relationship with every kind of terrorist organization.

Lévy's contacts are only a part of a broader diplomacy and public diplomacy offensive that France has launched recently. The article published yesterday in the New York Times under the byline of Steven Erlanger, titled "Turkish Aggression Is NATO's 'Elephant in the Room'", interprets Turkey's confrontation with France in Libya entirely in France's favor and accuses Turkey of being a discordant country within NATO. Without mentioning at all France's open support for the coup-making, massacring Haftar, or the fact that it provides him with arms and technical support, and without touching at all on Turkey's agreement with the legitimate government, it speaks of Turkey breaching the arms embargo in Libya. Having opened its mouth here, it also lists in one breath Turkey's disputes with Greece within NATO, its blocking of the memberships of countries such as Egypt, the BAE and Armenia, and of course, most recently, its stubborn purchase agreement for the S400 with Russia, as examples of its spoiler role within NATO.

Of course, each of the examples he gives reveals other problems in the functioning of NATO. Erlanger, for instance, did not touch at all on the fact that a NATO member country is engaging in commitments that provide financial and political support to the PKK terrorist organization, which poses a threat to another member country, and taking the matter as far as an oil production and sales agreement.

He did not ask what France is doing in Libya, as if France's presence there and all its activities were legitimate and Turkey were joining the game later. They have not a word to say about Greece and the other countries of the Mediterranean encircling Turkey in such a way that it cannot even cast a line off its own shores. They want to hold a self-proclaimed rightness. There is no such plunder.

The truth is that Turkey has indeed spoiled all these crooked and unjust games in which NATO members are involved.

Instead of weeping and complaining, let those who complain put their own colonial-pirate ambitions in order.
