http://www.illuminatisilver.com Today is Tuesday 24th November 2015 and we are putting forward an alternative view as to why Turkey is standing up to Russia and supporting the West so emphatically. Earlier today we produced a video covering the Turkish Airforce shooting down of a Russian Military Plane above its borders. Many have asked, why hasTurkey been willing to take such drastic action against a close neighbour where repercussions could indeed prove most serious for them? Well just follow this course of events: In 2009, Qatar proposed to run a natural gas pipeline through Syria and Turkey to Europe. Instead, President Assad of Syria forged a pact with Iraq and Iran to run a pipeline eastward, allowing those Shia-dominated countries access to the European natural gas market while denying access to Sunni Saudi Arabia and Qatar (close allies of the USA). It has been suggested that these States, then embarked on a campaign to remove Assad so they can control Syria and run their own pipeline through Turkey. After only being in Power for 2 months British Prime Minister David Cameron stated on 27th July 2010 to promise to "fight" for Turkey's membership of the European Union, saying he is "angry" at the slow pace of negotiations. On his first visit as Prime Minister, he said the country could become a "great European power", helping build links with the Middle East. He has been vociferous about this issue ever since. He added that he wanted to "pave the road" for Turkey to join the EU, saying the country was "vital for our economy, vital for our security and vital for our diplomacy". On 16th October 2015 the EU and Turkey agreed on an “Action Plan” that might give Ankara up to 3 Billion Euros in aid, plus visa privileges and new Talks on Turkey’s EU membership in return for help in stemming the flow of refugees to Europe. On the 19th October of this Year, Chancellor Merkel according to EU Observer, gave her support to a “new start for EU Turkey membership talks.” On Sunday the 26th November, the European Union has arranged an EU Turkey Summit – the first of its kind in 46 years. The Summit will be held between the 28 Member Countries and Turkey to discuss in Brussels how to re-energise the accession process and the stemming of the flow of refugees. So what does all of this information suggest to someone attempting to join the dots? Well a conspiracy theorist may conclude that Turkey has done a deal behind the scenes to fully support the West against Russia and Syria, and assist in the over throw of President Assad. This will open the gateway to both the proposed gas pipeline running from Qatar through Syria and Turkey leading to Europe and speed track Turkey’s entry into the European Union. With the knowledge of being a NATO member, owning the 10th most powerful army in the World on its own account, and the tacit support of entry into the European Union, which it has craved for many years, is there any surprise that they would think twice about shooting down any Russian aircraft that infringes their airspace?
