Puppet Masters
One woman spoke about the brutal acts committed by Islamic State (formerly ISIS/ISIL). "They cut off heads and kidnapped girls and women and took them to Raqqa. What were the slaves guilty of? This is a sin," she told RT.
A man spoke of the hypocrisy surrounding ISIS, recalling that while the group insists that females remain modest, they strip their slaves to make money. "They forced women to be fully covered and never show any part of the body," he said. However, they made their slaves strip in order to sell them. Women are not allowed to show anything. If someone was caught on the streets during prayer, she would be given 100 lashes."
Another man recalled the kidnapping of Christian women and girls, as well as the destruction of churches. "They stole property and destroyed churches. Our Christian sisters were seized. Some of them were taken hostage and held for ransom,"he said.
Sex slavery and human trafficking has been a typical method of raising revenue for ISIS. Earlier this month, the remains of up to 80 enslaved Yazidi women were discovered in Iraq. The women were believed to be between the ages of 40 and 80, leading to speculation that the group was only after younger women.
If you or I even gave five bucks to ISIS, we would be arrested and hauled off to Guantanamo Bay. And yet Barack Obama is allowing ISIS to funnel massive quantities of oil through our NATO ally Turkey, and he is not doing anything to stop this from happening. It is a betrayal of the American people that is so vast that it is hard to put into words.
Speaking with Radio Sputnik France on Tuesday, Dhuicq, an MP in the French National Assembly and a member of the legislative body's Defense Commission, said that he thinks "that Mr. Erdogan seeks, like the Ottoman Empire did before him, to move people and resettle several villages in northern Syria with Turkic-speaking peoples."
The MP explained that he has access to information which leads him to believe that "these villages, abandoned by Syrians, will be settled by Uighurs from China."
Comment: It seems all of these psychopaths think alike:
"When two countries participate together in military action, according to Turkey's constitution that has to be approved by the Turkish parliament," said Aydin.
"At the present time it is unclear whether France is acting in the framework of the international agreement among the countries of the Alliance, or its forces are in Turkish airspace at Turkey's request, as was the case with the deployment of Patriot air defense systems in Turkish territory."
"This issue has to be investigated, in order to find out whether the Turkish-French agreement is in accordance with the norms of constitutional law," said Aydin, a former constitutional court judge.
Comment: With Britain and Germany set to join in on the war party, lack of a coordinated coalition could create unintended consequences while they argue who the 'enemy' terrorists are.
The Russian ship, which was passing from the Aegean Sea into the Sea of Marmara, is believed to have been on its way to the Black Sea. The video accompanying the news report was reportedly filmed in the city of Canakkale, on the southern coast of the Dardanelles, at their narrowest point.
The Turkish sub is said to have been accompanying a Turkish coast guard vessel.
Comment: Hopefully Turkey doesn't make another 'mistake' here.

Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy was forced to resign overnight after the meeting with the mayor. The controversy surrounding the McDonald case ‒ and the gang execution of 9-year-old Tyshawn Lee in early November ‒ became too much for McCarthy to be able to remain on the job, they said.
Though McCarthy's record "is a strong one, and one he can be proud of," Emanuel said at a press conference.
"I'm grateful for his service to the city," the mayor said, noting that McCarthy, 56, had modernized the department and brought results in the 4.5 years since Emanuel hand-picked McCarthy to serve as superintendent. But "now it is time for fresh eyes and new leadership," he added.
Comment: Is McCarthy just the fall guy for Emanuel?
That reality of brutality in Turkey - another problematic American ally - is a fact known all too well by Turgay Ulu, a Turkish journalist who endured a 15-year imprisonment in Turkey, where he was tortured. During Ulu's long imprisonment, Turkish authorities justified his conviction on their claim that they had evidence against him - - evidence authorities obtained from two other victims of torture.
"I was tortured with electro shocks," Ulu said during an interview earlier this year in Berlin, Germany where he is a leading figure in a movement for refugee rights. Ulu's long imprisonment in Turkey led many, including Amnesty International, to consider him a political prisoner. Ulu was released from a Turkish prison in 2011 and he immediately fled to Europe.
Ulu was initially arrested in 1996 when Turkish authorities accused the then 23-year-old of belonging to two communist organizations. Ulu admits being a "Marxist" activist in Turkey but denies membership in those two organizations. A report Amnesty International released in 2006 examining serious flaws in Turkey's justice system cited Ulu's case. That AI report noted it was "highly improbable" that Ulu would be involved in "two ideologically unrelated" armed organizations.
"They tortured me but I still would not talk to the police," Ulu said. "When I did not talk to the police they said that was proof that I was a terrorist because I did not talk."
"Turkey earned around $6 billion in exports and $7 billion in tourism revenue from Russia. There is also extensive suitcase trade traffic between the two countries. Turkey's suitcase trade has declined from $8.5 billion in 2013 to $6 billion in 2014. Turkey can lose up to $20 billion, three percent of its annual GDP if the crisis escalates with Russia," CHP Deputy Osman Budak told Hurriyet Daily News.
The Antalya region, known for its Mediterranean resorts, is going to be hit hard, according to Budak's fellow CHP members.
All sides opted for a measured response to what transpired on November 24 in the Syrian airspace, the analyst said in an interview with Politico.
