I am a Canadian living in Turkey. The Gulen movement in Turkey from my observations is a dangerous organization with one aim, to control and rule the Turkish Republic, turning this country into a islamic republic, probably complete with Shira law. They are widely seen by the secular society within Turkey as having infiltrated the police, military and intelligence service and the judicary as well as having a big say in the AKP goverment of Turkey, to the extent of controlling policy. They have to some, including me, managed to control the prosecutors by getting any journalist that writes about their involvement in infiltrating and pulling the strings in the police, locked up and held without bail, some for up to 2 years now. The goverment claims this is an ongoing investigation having to do with the alleged "Ergenekon" case, in which hundreds of retired and serving senior military officers, journalists, academics and entertainers have been arrested, many without charge and having been jailed for up to 2 years, some have even died in custody because of lack of medical care. Don't trust the Gulen organization, it is evil of the worst kind, disguised as enlightend organization.
ReplyDeleteI think people are afraid of what they don’t know. I think you are one of this kind. I invite you to read about the Gulen Mouvement. The mouvement promote tolerance, anderstanding eachother, peace, accepting other as they are, etc.
DeleteClick on the adress and get rid of your ignorance: www.en.fgulen.com
Mike or Mehmet:
DeleteWe agree with you, this is why we encourage everyone to research the Gulen Movement. More importantly, NOT just reading your Hocaefendi's propaganda via his multitude of websites and books (Today's Zaman, Fountain Publishing)
What we have a problem with is your lack of transparency and the fact your group NEVER wants to associate yourself with Hizmet. Your schools in the USA lie to the bitter end they are part of Hizmet. This is what will take your down and has caused your many schools to close is your LYING> Are you embarassed to admit you are part of the movement?
As far as being afraid.........everyone better be afraid. Especially in Turkey where the Gulen Movement controls 70% of the Police, judiciary system etc. Where people cannot speak out and are thrown in jail as "terrorists" because they expose the truth about your exiled Fetos.
No ignorance here and we will not be stopped or intimidated. Thus, this is why we leave your post here.
Everyday your fellow brethren are leaving because of the lies you must live behind. Face it you know nothing about the true Islamic Imam Muhammed Fetullah Gulen (won't even use his name Muhammed)
And WE understand your group better than you do. Please learn to spell "movement"
Thank you for your contribution, we do hope that you get de programmed away from this CULT.
so what is wrong with the Sharia law, if applied? the biggest justice law from Allah the almighty. you can not find any law on the face of the earth which could establish 100 per cent justice for humanity. you may need more research to understand what sharia exactly means, it is not like to cut and stone anyone by free desire. there are certain conditions and certain procedures.
Deleteyou just need more research.
Thank you Stephen for your contribution. Please keep us informed of your laws and how this school is being funded. In the USA it they have siphoned off tax money intended for Educational purposes, then we see all of the expenses for non-educational garbage like h1-b visas, FREE trips to Turkey for local polticians, academia and media as well as the children that participate in Gulen's SHIT show the Turkish Olympiads a very elaborate expensive showcase of American children demonstrating their "Turkish Talents"
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the Canadian Turkish Olympiad is comming up shortly.
Their infiltration of government in Turkey is problematic, it is the same methods that are used worldwide. Only they blew it when they (Hizmet) started attacking journalists and jailing them. This is not going unnoticed by the world.
Please keep us informed as to what is going on in Canada, and until then the Canadian FREE Press has written an article 2 days ago on this.
I suggest you start educating your fellow Canadians.
I really don't understand how people can judge each other, then classify them like we are all some kind of mass product unit. I totally disagree with all of you, you can't just comment like that on someone that you don't know, specially with 3rd person's comments. Here I won't say like Gulen is good or bad, but all I want to say don't get an idea before get a book. Which means that read and learn before having an idea.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous I agree with you to a point. I have read some of Gulen's books but they are usually not penned by him. You see, there is no credible in a 5th grade educated self-imposed exiled "Cult" leader. His followers continue to lie and deny their affilations and how the schools perform (usually below standard or average at best) not to mention the lying about financial mismanagement and the inflated waiting lists which get larger each time they open their mouths to the press.
ReplyDeleteI have much research on Hizmet, in fact more than you probably have or know. Your group is disorganized you little soldiers just do as you are told and "Tuzuk" your salary back to the Gulen front groups.
Gulen is bad because he lacks transparency and hides because he would probably have to face charges in Turkey for trying to overthrow a secular country. He is not well liked at all but there is a certain amount of fear of being arrested, killed or destroyed by the Gulen mafia.
It makes no difference as these schools in the USA are funded with tax dollars. They continue to lie and their schools will continue to CLOSE. Many are fleeing to Canada, and taking American money with them. If your schools are private, then no one should care. But in America they are in big trouble VERY big trouble.
Gulen is not Islam it is a CULT.
