TURKEY’S INVASION OF SYRIA ACCOMPANIED BY UFO FLAP

This
week was another of those difficult weeks to schedule blogs, because so
many people shared so many articles on all sorts of topics that it was
rather difficult to decide what to blog about. Indeed, my usual practice
is to delete files from week to week of articles I have not used, but
this week is different, as I have retained many important stories for
possible blogs in the future.
One of
the themes that emerged in this week's pile of emails and articles,
however, was space, and more literal high strangeness. Accordingly,
today we begin a two days' worth of blogs relating to space stories that
also emerged in the same context (more or less) as the strange
Aldrin-Antarctica story.
The story
begins with Sultan Erdogan's newest policy reversal in a year that has
seen many such reversals from the Sultan. Initially of course, the
animus of Ankara was directed against Assad's government in Damascus,
and Erdogan was aiding the US-ISIS effort to topple that government, and
along the way, collect a lot of swag from ISIS's oil smuggling. Then,
of course, we had the Russian intervention, the sudden reversal of the
radicals' military fortunes thanks to a few well-laced Russian bombs and
ordnance, then the downing of the Russian fighter by Turkey. Tensions
rose, Russia placed an embargo on against Turkey and demanded an apology
and compensation.
Equally as suddenly,
we saw the abortive coup attempt against Mr. Erdogan, his bizarre
flight from Istanbul accompanied by two Turkish coup fighters that did
not shoot him down, Frau Merkel's refusal to grant him asylum, his
flight back to Istanbul and his twitters and tweets calling out "the
people," and the subsequent collapse of the coup, which Mr. Erdogan
promptly blamed on U.S.-protected Gullen. The Turks blocked power to
Insirlik airbase while the USA quickly shuttled its nuclear weapons
there to eastern Europe and out of Turkey's reach. This was followed
equally quickly by a complete reversal of policy of Erdogan's part, with
visits to Russia, letters of apology to that country for shooting down
its fighter, full compensation for the family, and re-establishment of
relations with Israel, accompanied by some stiff anti-NATO and anti-EU
rhetoric out of Ankara.
Then, Mr.
Erdogan did another apparent about-face, and invaded Syria once again.
This has been followed by some (no doubt sharp and pointed) phone calls
from Mr. Putin, which forced Mr. Erdogan to reverse course yet again in
just a matter of days, backing off from his statements that Turkey was
there to overthrow the Assad regime once and for all. In reality, I
suspect that Mr. Erdogan's target here was not the Assad regime, but the
Kurds, a constant source of irritation to
But...
... while all this
was going on, Turkey played host to one of the largest UFO flaps in
recent memory, according to this story shared by many readers here:
The story made some of the major American talk shows as well.
This
is one of those stories that almost compels some high octane
speculation, for as UFO flaps go, its timing is unusual, both as to
timing during a major geopolitical crisis and confrontation, but also as
to its place, namely, in the country originated the current round of
the crisis, Turkey. This invites the idea that someone was sending
messages, but who? Mr. Putin, of course, most likely had some hard and
less-than-encouraging words for Mr. Erdogan during their phone
conversations, and a day later, by most reckoning, Mr. Erdogan had
altered his message that the Turkish invasion was simply meant to be
against terrorism rather than Mr. Assad's government. This invites the
idea that perhaps the UFO "flap" may have been meant as a "backup" to
whatever message Mr. Putin delivered, a kind of revelation of Russian
"black projects" as it were.
This is
not so far-fetched as it may seem, for in my books I have detailed the
journey through Russia of a US Senator by train in the 1950s, during
which trip he witnessed a "disk like object" ascending from the surface.
The Senator's Russian escorts, undoubtedly KGB, then appeared, politely
excused themselves, and pulled the blinds on the train window down. The
senator then reported that he felt like he was meant to see
what he saw. After all, the Russians had their fair share of captured
Nazis too, and some of them, according to some stories, were occupied in
the various Nazi "saucer" projects utilizing vectored jets and so on.
Possible? Well, maybe.
But if not Russia, then who? The USA would have no reason to send dissuading
message to the Sultan. This leaves a "third party" of some sort,
whatever its origins, intent on sending messages to Mr. Erdogan. This
is, indeed, another case of "you tell me," but (and here comes the
really high octane speculation), I cannot but help wondering if all this
recent business is somehow related to Patriarch Kiril's visit to
Antarctica and with "whatever is going on down there." If so, then we
may indeed be looking at even stranger "alliances" then we've seen thus
far, some, perhaps, involving alliances with hitherto unknown players.
Really high octane speculation? To be sure. But in this case it's a case of you tell me.
