The Democratic Union Party (PYD) Factor Forces Turkey to Have a Peace Process with the PKK

Let me be clear. I am for peace, and I support any step toward the peace process, because innocent people are paying the price. Therefore, I salute the BDP (Kurdish Peace Democratic Party), the PKK (Kurdistan Workers Party), and even the Turkish government for their courage in trying to end violence and bloodshed, but let’s be honest and not delude ourselves.

We are living in a global village, but can a global village live without its leadership? Now the world is seriously seeking to replace the old order, which was dominated by the West and America for over two centuries, with a new global world.

Samuel Huntington introduced the phrase “clash of civilizations” in 1993 in an article in the Journal of Foreign Affairs. Since then many scholars have spoken about the war on terror as a sign of a possible conflict between the West and the Islamic world. Others would argue that 9/11 was a sign that this clash of civilizations has already begun. Continue reading

Samuel P. Huntington: Regional Rivalry and Global Conflicts of Interest

Samuel P. Huntington was one of the most powerful thinkers and a very important political scientist in America. In 1993, Huntington published a very controversial essay in Foreign Affairs called “The Clash of Civilization“ in which he argued that after the end of the Cold War, we would have a clash of civilizations.

Did President Obama Really Destroy Al-Qaida: Algerian Hostage Crisis

We all remember during the US campaign when Governor Mitt Romney rightly accused President Obama of failing to protect American interests and Democrats of being very soft on national security. However, in discussing his foreign policy, President Obama was so proud and declared success in having eliminated the Jihadists or Al-Qaida. The President claimed victory for killing Osama bin Laden and his top 22 out of 30 Al-Qaeda leaders. Having killed Osama Bin Laden, President Obama and his peace loving liberals think our world is safe and that Al-Qaida no longer is Al- Qaida because the head has been eliminated.

The Turkish government chose direct talks with the Kurdish guerilla organization, the Kurdistan Worker’s Party, and in this choice have been backed by some of the social groups including the global Muslims missionary group’s leader Fethullah Gülen.
