Is Turkey Participating in Kurdish Genocide w/Planes Sold by Obama?

U.S. President Obama shakes hands with Turkey's PM Erdogan after a bilateral meeting in Seoul

Turkey, a state sponsor of ISIS is currently doing its part for Kurdish genocide by bombing Kurdish border villages using F-16s while obstructing the US war against ISIS.

Turkey has had an indigenous F-16 manufacturing operation for some time. An obvious mistake on our part. But it ordered 50 more F-16s in 2012, recently got a number of upgrades including F-16 software access.

What that essentially means is that Obama enabled Turkey to use its F-16s to attack Israel.

In particular, Turkey wants control over the aircraft’s identification friend or foe (IFF) system in order to offer more flexibility with regard to how its fleet identifies foreign air force jets. The default setting of the original U.S. software for Turkey’s F-16 fleet, for instance, identified Israeli air force jets as exclusively friendly. To overcome the problem, ASELSAN, one of Turkey’s leading defense companies, developed a new IFF system, which was finalized in September 2011 and is now operational on Turkey’s F-16 fleet. The new system allows Turkish fighters to bypass the original software restrictions, allowing Turkish pilots to determine whether to recognize Israeli fighters as either friendly or hostile.

That’s a fundamentally hostile act by Obama. But there are no software problems when it comes to using F-16s to massacre Kurds. And that’s what Erdogan, the Islamist Butcher of Istanbul, is currently doing with his F-16s.

F-16 jets bombed PKK targets in the village of Daglica in the Kurdish-majority Hakkari province near the border with Iraq, a security source said.

Attack helicopters also struck at PKK targets around the village of Geyiksuyu in the Tunceli province of eastern Turkey following raids by the PKK.

Airstrikes have failed to stop Islamic State from reaching the centre of Kobane, which was in danger of falling, as commanders from the US-led coalition prepared to meet overnight in Washington to discuss halting the group’s advance in Iraq and Syria.

So while the US tries to stop ISIS from massacring Kurds, Turkey is massacring Kurds using F-16s. And Obama has enabled Turkey to carry out similar massacres even against American allies.

    Hmmm
    So Turkey wants her F-16s to have the capability to attack Israel.
    If Erdogan dares take on the Jewish nation, that willl be the biggest and final mistake of his political career.
    Time and again Israel has shown that she can deal with Islamist hotheads like Erdogan.

    Now that the Israeli military knows what’s up with the F-16s, software upgrades and all, I’m sure it’ll develop counter-software and blast “our” planes out of the sky when necessary. Israel is smarter than the average Turk.

    don’t know what model f-16 .. some are very old. as far as the f-4′s,
    the plane have a good chance of coming apart in flight.
    sort of like a cartoon.

  • Gee

    To those that claimed the Turkey is not aiding ISIL – the proof is in the bombing.

    The Turkish thugs are again committing genocide and aiding terrorism

    They’re holding out for the UN Security Council chair – and Obama will give it to them today.

    Utterly beneath contempt – Erdogan and Obama.

    Turkey is also a Tier-2 partner in the F-35 JSF program. They have a bigger role than Israel does in the development and manufacturing of the F-35.
