Türkiye: Who is behind the protests over the arrest of Imamoğlu?

(The following comments are relayed from Erke Behcet, Red Fire’s correspondent based in Türkiye, in relation to the protests which began in Istanbul on March 19, 2025).   I think both the protests and what the government is doing are suspicious.  I cannot know what is happening for certain.

HTS “Moderate Rebels” Terrorise Aleppo

08-12-2024:  We have seen this movie before. Al Qaeda terrorists backed by the West and the Israeli state murderously advance against Syrian civilians and its government, while being lauded as “rebels”, or even “moderate rebels” by the pliant corporate media in the West.

Israel Strikes Iran in Syria – the “rules based international order”

15-04-2024: The April 1st strike by the Zionist Israeli state on the Iranian consulate in the Syrian capital Damascus was unprecedented.

This convention,[1] … Continue reading Israel Strikes Iran in Syria – the “rules based international order”
