Welcome to the Kurdish Spring

"Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan came out all guns blazing on Turkish TV; 'We will not allow a terrorist group to establish camps in northern Syria and threaten Turkey'."

Pepe Escobar is correct. There is a “Kurdish Spring” at hand. I wish to comment on this, but first, let me note that Erdogan is an early example of an Obama. He came to power in 2003, the point at which the international One Percent started installing Obamas in nations everywhere (although they did not begin in the USA until the meltdown and the election of 2007).

An “Obama” is someone who promises to bring progressive and populist changes, but is even more elitist and pro-war than his predecessor. His purpose is to lull the masses into accepting ever-more war, poverty, and banker tyranny. When the 1% supports an Obama for office, they simultaneously support an “opponent” who is blatantly pro-elitist, so that the masses cannot accept him. The apparent “difference” between him and the Obama strengthens the Obama’s false appearance as a progressive populist. It also strengthens the illusion that the masses have a choice in elections.

As soon as the “populist” Obama is installed, he does an about face, becoming even more elitist than was his blatantly pro-elitist “opponent.” 

The  corporate media further strengthens the illusion by filling its pages with stories about the faux “opponent.” (Hence I ignore everything about Romney / Ryan, since I know they will not be installed. The 1% will re-install Obama, in order to continue their theft.)

This happens with national governments, plus international organizations like the IMF and World Bank. When the philandering Jew Dominique Strauss-Kahn lost power, he was replaced by the “kinder gentler” Christine Lagarde, a woman who is even more vicious than was Strauss-Kahn.

The masses still do not understand this game. They actually think they have a “choice” on elections.  

ERDOGAN-BAMA

Before Erdogan took office, the Turkish masses had been ruled by a succession of military juntas, each having taken power in military coups. The masses lived in a gangster state ruled by drug lords and mafia kingpins.

By 2002 the Turkish masses were sick of this nightmare, just as Americans were becoming sick of the W. Bush nightmare.  Hence Erdogan and his “Justice and Development Party” (funded by the international One Percent) won a landslide victory in the 2002 election, taking nearly two-thirds of the seats.

As with all Obamas, Erdogan promised “hope and change.” He promised that Turkey would not be so closely allied with the Israeli / Western Empire. He promised to ease problems with Kurdish rebels. He promised to ease problems with Iran, in order to satisfy Turkey’s need for oil and gas. He promised jobs. He promised an “open doors policy with Armenia. He promised a “zero problems with our neighbors policy.”

In short, he promised to end the nightmare.

As with all Obamas, Erdogan did an about-face the moment he was installed, thereby increasing the nightmare.

Since the masses still do not understand the Obama game, the masses are confused. What happened to the  “zero problems with our neighbors” policy? Oh that’s right. People like Assad became “evil dictators.” The neighbors insisted on creating problems. Yeah, that’s it.

THE KURDISH SPRING

“Ankara may provide logistics to tens of thousands of Syria's NATO ‘rebels’ (which include plenty of hardcore Sunni Arab ‘insurgents’ formerly known as terrorists), but as long as Syrian Kurds - which are part of the Syrian opposition - demonstrate some independence, they immediately revert to being considered ‘terrorists’.”

Yes, this provides a further pretext for Turkish aggression against Syria. Assad is not only an “evil dictator who slaughters his people,” he supports Kurdish “terrorism.”

“The Kurdish National Council (KNC), the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Party (PYD), and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) are neither pro-Assad nor pro-opposition. They favor Kurdish interests. They are now in full control of a de facto Kurdish enclave in northeast Syria.”

Yes. Kurds in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran want independence. They want their own nation. They already have it in “Iraqi Kurdistan,” an autonomous region in northern oil-rich Iraq that is a de facto nation. Now they have it in Syria. They will not get it in Turkey, or the Kurdish regions of Iran.

When the NATO-Israeli-GCC alliance has finished destroying Syria, the alliance will not be able to send Sunni Arab terrorist mercenaries to Shiite Iran. Hence the alliance will hire terrorists from the Kurds, the Azerbaijanis, and anyone in Iran who cares to sign up.

“Iraqi Kurdistan President Massoud Barzani told al-Jazeera that yes - they are training Syrian Kurds who defected from the Syrian Army to defend their de facto enclave. It was Barzani who supervised the key deal sealed in Irbil on 11 July 2012 that led to Assad forces retreating from Syrian Kurdistan. One can imagine all this cross-country Kurdish frenzy terrifying quite a few souls in Turkey. One columnist for the daily newspaper Hurriyet got it right; ‘Arabs are fighting, Kurds are winning.’ The Kurdish Spring is at hand. And it is already hitting Turkey's borders.”

Yes, and this legitimizes Erdogan’s belligerence. Turkey must remain a police state under Erdogan, and must support terrorists against the government of Syria, in order to fight “terrorism” in Turkey (i.e. crush the Kurdish desire for independence).  
 
“An increasingly erratic Erdogan has invoked a ‘natural right’ to fight ‘terrorists.’ But first they must produce an ID. If they are Sunni Arab, they get away with it. If they are Kurdish, they eat lead.”

Exactly. Terrorists must also produce an ID to the NATO-Israeli-GCC alliance. If they serve the alliance, they get away with it. (Indeed they are paid cash for it.)  If they question the alliance's wishes, they eat lead.
