Parallel questions for Ishak Alaton!

Today, the Republic of Turkey is choosing its 12th President. Not only the President is being chosen, but also the faith of Turkey is changing. A 150-year-long captivity will come to an end, and Turkey will be making its own decisions, whether good or bad.

For the past 150 years, Turkey has been betrayed from both the inside and the outside. Great prices have been paid. Despite all the coups, conspiracies and provocations, Turkey remained standing. For the past 12 years, there had been great changes in almost every field. Turkey had experienced the biggest betrayal from the parallel structure. This structure had done things, which no state can ever forgive. They weren"t alone. They had great support from their own press, and the Ciner and Dogan press.

The structure, which threatens the national security, will be brought to an account in front of the law, for all the things it had done. Also, the ones, who supported and harbored them, will also pay the price. The parallel structures possess a businessmen''s group, which they control with the files they have in their possession. There are people who put every kind of opportunity at the disposal of the parallel gang because of their Erdogan hatred or because they are wired into them.

After the December 17th and 25th coup attempts, everyone"s attitude became clearer. As for the businessmen, they had stayed on the state"s side in a vast scale. But, there is someone who has to make an explanation for some things. Today, the state police, MIT, the military, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Prime Ministry are struggling against the parallel structure with all their might. With Erdogan"s expression, "We are entering their lairs." Despite this, there is a person who cannot put a distance between himself and the parallel structure: Ishak Alaton.

Alaton is someone who had stood upright during February 28. He was someone who stood upright against the military with his murdered partner, Üzeyir Garih. During that period, he was on the agenda of especially the Gülen-led group"s press. After the February 7th MIT crisis, something had happened to Ishak Alaton and he started to side against the government. The same restlessness was also seen within the Gülen-led group. In other words, when Israel is the subject in question, Gülen"s and Alaton"s bloods were drained. They were even losing their composure.

When Alaton gave an interview to Today"s Zaman on December 2012, he had answered the "What was the mistake of the rulership and the opposition today?" question exactly as follows:

"The breaking point is the self-confidence produced by being chosen for the third time with 49.5 vote percent. Until that day, the pursued line also included EU agreements, democratic developments, and above all, the attempt of catching the ultimate success (…) But the attitude changed after the third election and had brought Turkey to this dead-end today. Because I can"t see a powerful signal on the horizon. We would be catching the success, returning to European standards again and taking care of the problems in the Middle East… Against all this, Turkey"s wrong policy is picturing a dangerous attitude. Despite this provocation, the government should have stayed on the line and should have stated, "Yes, despite this I"ll catch the success", but they did not. Instead, they had fallen into the ambush and stated that "Seeing that the public want war again, then I"ll go to war". Then that time, the war had restarted. The biggest issue here is gathering everyone together and taking the step that will bring peace. But somehow, that step is not being taken. I say that there must be deeper reasons behind it."

Later on in the interview, he was saying, "AK Party is deeply wounded with self-confidence". Again, in 2012, in another one of his interviews, Alaton was stating his support for the Gülen-led group openly:

He had answered the "Then what"s the view of the Jews on the Gülen-led group"s educational activities?" question on the FGulen.com website as follows: "A stupid article had been written in the Wall Street Journal to the detriment of the service. I had found one of the prominent names of the Jewish lobby in the US, Alon Ben Meir. He travels to Turkey a lot, so I kindly requested. He had persuaded the writer of that article that his article had been incorrect. Then the same writer had written another article a week later and stated, "I had made a mistake". In other words, the Jewish lobby had taken care of the problem in the US. Why? Because the objectives are similar."

Now, as for the essential issue. Dear Alaton, did you experience any pressure from the Gülen-led group, on behalf of the Taraf newspaper, via imams on the matter of purchasing shares? Did they threaten you that if you don"t purchase shares, then your companies would be in great danger? Did you suffer from oppression in the direction of giving more advertisements to the Gülen-led group"s press? Did they send you some recording of your daughter Leyla Alaton?

Did some Israeli diplomats, who were in Turkey during the December 17th and 25th coup attempts, force you to press against the government? Did some MOSSAD agent remind you of the fate of Üzeyir Garih? There are many questions to be asked, but if we could get some answers to these, it would be sufficient.
