Turkey / ISIS Oil Trade? Everyone Knows What's Going On Say Istanbul Residents

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has adamantly denied Russian accusations of Turkey’s oil dealings with Islamic State, yet ordinary Turks question his words and are not surprised by the evidence presented by Moscow.

Russia Today’s Harry Fear asked people on the streets of Istanbul what they thought of the report presented by the Russian Defense Ministry, which claims Erdogan and his family benefit from oil products smuggled by Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) from Syrian and Iraqi territory. Erdogan earlier promised to step down if such claims are proven true.

“I believe that Erdogan and ISIS [have some contract between them],” one man said. Another Istanbul resident told RT that “the rumors have been circulating for a long time and everyone knows what’s going on, but nothing has been done about it.”

“Now Erdogan has to step down,” he added.

Yet many are pessimistic about such a possibility, with one young man saying “I don’t think he’s going to resign. He’s a dictator and loves being one.”

Turkish mainstream media omitted to cover both the Russian Defense Ministry’s revelations and Erdogan’s offer to resign if the allegations against him are proved. Sibel Gunes of the Turkish Journalists’ Association explained that “the government created a restrictive climate for journalists wanting to report in the dangerous border regions.”

On Wednesday, the Russian Defense Ministry released maps and satellite imagery it said proves that Turkey is the main consumer of oil smuggled by IS from Syria and Iraq, and claimed that the Turkish president and his family are involved in criminal dealings.

Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov, who hosted a briefing last Wednesday (2 December, 2015), said: “A united team of criminals and Turkish elites, involved in stealing oil from its neighbors, is acting in the region. This oil is being supplied to Turkey on a large industrial scale via improvised pipelines composed of thousands of oil truck tankers.”

Despite Erdogan’s robust promise to step down in the event that the intelligence presented is real, Antonov stressed the Turkish president’s resignation is not Russia’s goal and “is for the people of Turkey to decide.”

Consensus on the streets of Isanbul was that even if a legally binding contract signed by Edrogan agreeing terms for the oil trade with terrorists is produced, the tyrant will not leave office."

Turkey has ‘serious questions’ to answer: Reactions to RT report on post-ISIS town in Syria

The stream of accusations is growing against Ankara over illegal oil trade and support of Islamic State, with politicians and experts calling for Turkey to be held accountable for its actions after a new batch of evidence gathered by RT.

Leaked Transcripts Prove ISIS-Turkey Link
Turkey had been widely criticized for not doing enough to assist in the fight against ISIS. In fact, we have published here a lot of evidence to suggest that Ankara was cooperating with the group by ensuring funds through illegal oil trades and acting as a conduit for US supplied weapons. Turkey's links with ISIS are so undeniable and well documented now, even mainstream media have had to start reporting this news ...

As this blog predicted President Erdogan of Turkey is blaming the Kurds and President Assad of Syria for yesterday's bomb blast in the Turkish capital which killed and injured many people.It was predictable would the attack would be blamed on Assad and the Kurds, thus giving the nutter Erdogan an excuse to intensify his actions against Assad and the Kurds

Turkey and Sadui Arabia Already Have Troops Fighting In Syria
Even mainstream media has been forced to concede that Turkey and Saudi Arabia are apparently ready to send ground forces to the Syrian battlefield as Assad's forces, backed by Russian air power and Iranian elite troops but continue to grind down ISIS forces equipped with US made arms and ammunition via Saudi Arabia and funded by Turkey's illegal oil trade with the terrorist group.

US Allies Now Fighting CIA-Backed Terror Groups In Syria

The idea that ISIS has very close links with the USA has gone beyond conspiracy theory, or anti US propaganda, the proof is out there. We have previously reported on the US government's links to ISIS and revealed the vital role of NATO member Turkey in supporting the terrorists in their campaign which aims to create an Islamic Caliphate stretching from the Mediterranean Sea to the Persian Gulf

Climate Conference Agreement My Arse: Germany To Build Forty New Coal And Gas Power stations

So as the great and good, ferried halfway round the world (by private jet in many cases) have been meeting in the latest 'last chance saloon' in Paris to save the planet. We need a Green revolution the politicians and scientists agree. Carbon Dioxide is the devil incarnate and unless we accept a one million per cent tax on every penny we earn, will destoy all life on earth by lunchtime next Tuesday, they tell us.

"You buggers had better listen to us, the science is settled," they tell us.

Green Revolution my arse.

Today I saw this headline, German Brown Coal Power Output Hits New High (Der Spiegel English edition) and because the German government has been touted as one of the greenest and most committed to
switching off the light and heatconverting the national economy ro run entirely on 'sustainable energy supplies'. Knowing from friends on the ground rather than in Ivory Towers in Germany that German energy industry was, until they recommissioned a number of mothballed coal plants, struggling to keep up with demands having tried to replace outmoded coal and gas stations with wind turbines (solar panels are about as much use for large scale generation in Germany as they are in Britain, then in a frenzy of panic they closed their nuclear stations because of a mess in Fukushima on the other side of the world.

So here is the shocking story beneath that headline. Once again they hypocrisy of the climate change scaremongering is exposed. And when you remember that both India and China have plans to build ten times as many new coal burning power plants as Germany over the coming years, it shows what a nonsense the Paris conference is. And it shows what shits politicians are and what a bunch of snivelling little creeps those lying statistics nerds who call themselves climate scientists are. They are whores, they will say anything they are paid to say.

Who is paying them you might well ask. Well who do you think will profit from the $1trillion market in trading carbon credits. Goldman Sachs? George Soros? Al Gore? All of the above banksters and billionaires?

Germany plans to wean itself off CO2-belching coal-fired power stations. But new figures show that coal power output in 2013 reached its highest level in more than 20 years. Researchers blame cheap CO2 emissions permits, and demand urgent reforms.

Energy Paradox

The increase in coal-generated power also led to a new record in German electricity exports to around 33 billion kilowatt hours. “In 2013 Germany exported more power than it imported on eight out of 10 days. Most of it was generated by from brown coal and anthracite power stations,” said Patrick Graichen, a power market analyst at Berlin-based think tank Agora Energiewende. “They are crowding out gas plants not just in Germany but also abroad — especially in the Netherlands.”

So much for Obama's sanctimonious speechifying, Cameron's  shiny - faced blethering, Merkel's hypocritical humbug and all the rest of the complete and utter bollocks being talked in Paris. We can only realistically reduce carbon by reducing our rate of consumption of material goods in the developed nations. but the politicians who are damning carbon dioxide constantly tell us economic growth is essential.

And economic growth means more carbon dioxide.

Now I'm in favour of scaling down economies, living smaller, making stuff last longer, boycotting the throw away society. Do you know how many million tons of CO2 is produced by making the stuff we rip off things we buy and just throw away? I looked it up once, its a lot - but nobody is telling us to boycott overpackaged things to save the planet.

Landmark Report Explodes The Myth Of Economic Benefits From Mass Immigration



Immigrant workers boost the economy of a European nation (Image source)

The Contribution politicians and left wing hand wringers claim is by migrants to Britain’s economy are “modest” compared to their long term costs, while mass migration depresses wages and harms GDP growth, a report on the findings of research led by a respected academic has found.

A pamphlet published by the Institute for the Study of Civil Society (Civitas), titled The Costs And Benefits Of Large-Scale Immigration is a large scale survey of the modern mass migration phenomenon.

King’s College Cambridge fellow and Emeritus Professor of Economics Robert Rowthorn, is named as lead author of the report which finds serious discrepancies between claims made by left-wing, and “centrist” establishment politicians and the reality of mass migration as it affects working and middle class people.

While mass migration will drive almost all population growth in the next 75 years, the growth will not deliver any improvement of living conditions or economic growth, according to Prof. Rowthorn's research. As the population of Britain’s grows by an astonishing 30 million by 2080, GDP per capita — a totally inaccurate and misleading measure of wealth but the only one the government's Office Of National Statistics supplies us with, — will only see marginal growth as wages stagnate due to the offshoring of jobs and the influx of cheap labour.

A similar thing is already destroying the living standards of middle income families in the USA. While most new jobs being created are in the service sector, manufacturing, construction and research & development are contracting as sources of employment.

The wage stagnation, or even a real-terms decrease in earnings,  that will inevitably result from the twin trends of offshoring work and importing huge numbers of workers is certain to be felt primarily by working class Britons as oversupply of labour from new migrants pushes down wages. The report also exposed the myth that migrants were important to an economy, by paying for the pensions of retired British (that one never had any basis in logic, new citizens only increase tax revenue if jobs can be found for them, and with the exception of Canada, western economies are not creating jobs. Even Germany's economy has been hit by the costs of mass immigration.

In reality, when the claims of the politically correct political consensus are subjected to detailed examination, the  opposite is true of most of them, Prof. Rowthorn states.

In the case of the ‘dependency rate’, the number of pensioners that can be supported from the contributions of every 100 working age people — not only did the figure not improve, the amount of immigrants required to keep the level stable continues to rise.

A hidden nasty in the statistics shows that as working-age migrants get older, retire, and do not return home — there will be a requirement for whole new generation of migrants to work in the public sector caring for them.

On this phenomenon, Prof. Rowthorn writes: “Many people would consider it better to settle for much less immigration and much slower population growth at the cost of a slightly faster ageing” of the population.

The report suggests, it will be better to raise the retirement age slightly instead, and spare Britain tens of millions of migrants and descendents of migrants, many of whom will not be willing to accept British laws or customes and will refuse to integrate over the coming decades. As we know there are now people in towns with large immigrant communities who, despite having been born in Britain to parents born in Britain, do not consider themselves British, are intolerant of aspects of British life and are supporters of those groups demanding their own laws and areas from which white people are excluded.

The report has been received welcomed by some. Responding to the remarkable findings, Lord Green of Deddington, Chairman of the independent Migration Watch UK think tank said:
“This landmark report is the nail in the coffin for claims that mass immigration is good for Britain. It shows the impact on jobs and pay as well as the massive impact of population growth on schools, hospitals and housing.
“Immigration is currently the greatest concern for the British public yet campaigners continue to parrot selective and misleading arguments about its supposed benefits. In reality, it is nigh on impossible to find any reasons for growing our population by 20 million over the next 50 years.”

Civitas director Dr. David Green went further, commenting that the evidence put forward by Prof. Rowthorn exposed the weakness of arguments in support of mass migration, and said it was also a selfish policy for first world
nations to pursue.

He said: “Rich countries are enriching themselves at the expense of poorer countries. The attitude seems to be: let poor countries go to the expense of educating their young people and then invite them here to exploit their skills. Poor countries can’t afford to lose their best educated and motivated young.

“Defenders of mass immigration say that immigrants take dirty or hard jobs that locals will not do. But in the past in Britain, before our public service employers were hijacked by Britain - hating Marxists, and in other countries with low immigration such jobs are filled. Employers simply have to pay more for dirty and arduous jobs. So it should be.

The end result of the current policy will be an underclass of foreign workers doing unpopular jobs, an academic, managerial and professional elite enjoying an exotic lifestyle and lost generations of bar tenders, waitresses, call centre clerks and delivery drivers working for minimum wage. Instead an advanced and wealthy society should be aim for a high-wage economy in which everyone can earn a fair living”. But then the left always did despise the masses whose votes they have for so long taken for granted.
