MESOP TODAYS ENTRÉE : ERDOGAN’S MAP  / By BURAK BEKDİL – So, Istanbul is a Greek city?

3 Nov 2016 – Some observers have lately been advising foreign governments not to worry too much about Turkey’s (President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s) increasingly aggressive irredentist rhetoric because it is largely targeted at domestic consumption rather than addressing the relevant foreign audience. Well, yes and no.   –  Read all http://www.mesop.de/?p=79780

MESOP TODAYS COMMENTARY BY RAND CORPORATION

(The Cipher Brief) – November 2, 2016 – Al Nusra Is Stronger Than Ever – by Colin P. Clarke

Three months after its “split” from al Qaeda, which in reality is simply a feint, Jabhat Fateh al Sham (JFS), formerly known as Jabhat al Nusra, may pose a more significant long-term threat to the West than the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

While the West targets ISIS, JFS is quietly laying the groundwork for al Qaeda’s resurgence by “hunkering down,” rebuilding, and repositioning itself along several fronts. This should come as no surprise — al Qaeda and its affiliates are nothing if not resilient. Read all http://www.mesop.de/?p=79775

By Michael Momayezi, Kevin Cooper, and Staley Smith

MESOP DEBATTE : ALEXANDER GARCIA DÜTTMANN SEZIERT  CAROLIN EMCKE / Vernichtend !

Die Pantomimen (im wörtlichen Sinne von „nachahmend“) ) der LBGTI Kultur gönnen sich keinem anderen, sie lieben möglichst identisch nur sich selber , kurzfristig oft genug und ebenso selbstbezogen wie selbstgefällig.

Optimale Befriedigung im Moment, dies oft und ohne sonderlichen Aufwand an Sublimation. Dieser narzisstische Sozialisationstyp ist dabei obsessiv fixiert auf stets das eine, wie im Zustand einer zwanghaften Fundamentalprojektion, der andauernd allen anderen Leuten phallisch aufdringlich erklären muss, wie sie ficken.

Wenn Emcke vom „Frieden“  redet in der Paulskirche, ist von Aleppo und Mosul mit keinem Wort die Rede, wohl aber raumgreifend von Zustand wie Entwicklungsgeschichte der Emkeschen Sexual- Disposition, was solchen Leuten allemal allein schon als ein abendfüllendes Thema gilt.

Vom Inhalt her aufgeschäumter, wichtigtuerisch selbstbezüglicher nonsense : vorgetragen mit einer  Charaktermase á la jungmännlicher marxistische Denker der 1920er Jahre, eine Strähne in der Stirn, die Visage maskulin leicht zerfurcht.

Womit alles hergerichtet ist, um Schablonen + Clichés zum Besten zu geben, vorsichtshalber etwas kryptisch, weil sie schon weiß, daß sie nichts zu sagen hat.  Alexander Garcia Düttman belegt ihr das:

Carolin Emckes Preisrede Eine heimelige Wiedererkennbarkeit

Wir sind „wir“? Was Carolin Emcke in der Paulskirche vortrug, war ein Diskurs, der sich an sich selbst berauscht. Nachbemerkungen zur Friedenspreisrede. Volltext http://www.mesop.de/?p=79785

 

 

MESOP „NEUER PKK ANSCHLAG“  – Diyarbakir: Mindestens acht Tote bei Anschlag in Kurdenmetropole / Zivilisten verletzt

Nur wenige Stunden nach der Festnahme prokurdischer Oppositionspolitiker ist im Südosten der Türkei eine Autobombe explodiert. Ministerpräsident Binali Yildirim macht die PKK verantwortlich.

04.11.2016 – FAZ / dpa / MESOP  – Bei dem Autobomben-Anschlag in der Kurdenmetropole Diyarbakir sind nach Regierungsangaben mindestens acht Menschen getötet worden. Mutmaßlich handele es sich um einen Selbstmordanschlag, unter den Toten sei ein „Terrorist“ der verbotenen kurdischen Arbeiterpartei PKK, sagte Ministerpräsident Binali Yildirim am Freitag vor Journalisten in Istanbul.

Mehr als hundert Menschen seien verletzt worden, sieben von ihnen würden noch behandelt. Die Bombe war am Freitag in der Nähe des Polizei-Hauptquartiers der Provinz detoniert. Die Detonation ereignete sich wenige Stunden nach der Festnahme der Chefs der prokurdischen Oppositionspartei HDP bei einer Serie nächtlicher Razzien, mit denen die türkischen Behörden ihr Vorgehen gegen Kritiker von Präsident Recep Tayyip Erdogan massiv ausweiteten.Zahlreiche Krankenwagen waren im Einsatz, wie ein AFP-Korrespondent berichtete. www.mesop.de
